You wander the aisles, fingers tracing stamped numbers on a box, lingering on a familiar emblem. Each shelf is a landscape of possibilities: calipers with stories of mountain passes, hoses that once survived a desert crawl, alternators that hummed through all-night highway runs. In the corner under flickering fluorescent light, someone leans against a counter, a cigarette haloing embers in the gloom. The smoke curls up slow and deliberate, mapping the silence with a small, private rebellion. It smells faintly of tobacco and something older — the habit of people who’ve measured life in miles and wrenches.
