Invincible

Four men in wifebeaters play dominos outside the Chinese take out. Bachata blares from the beat- up blue coupe parked nearby.

A silver SUV swooshes by then slams into the light post by the intersection. The boy-driver gets out of his car and fishes out his phone.

I am sore from the gym. I look out of the cab window. The fresh-faced driver is unharmed.
