The driver lets you out at a gas station. Were you heading north? South? It's impossible to tell from the sun.
The gas station's run down, but in that recognizable, Hollywood way. The dust and sun have flaked and baked the building's paint. The "GAS" sign looks like it's missing some bulbs. Old, junked-out cars sit next to the mechanic's garage.
The store's doors are locked, but there's a pop machine next to the entrance. You fish in your pockets for some change. clink-clink-clink!. Glass bottles! You find the opener, snap off the cap, and take a drink. Ice cold, too!
"You dropped something."
You hear a smooth, small voice. You turn around, expecting to see the driver. It's an older man... or is he younger than you think? He's impeccably dressed, with a kind face and a secret smile.
The stranger twists his wrist, and a familiar coin appears in his hand. "Thanks," you mutter. He doesn't respond. You start to wonder whether you heard him speak at all.
As you take it, it feels... cold. Really cold. Like it's been in the pop machine. Or the pocket of the devil.
You look down and flip it over. 2022. That can't be right. Your coin says... Hang on!
You fish around in your pocket and find what you weren't expecting.
2021.
"Sorry, sir, you made a mistake. This one's not..."
The stranger's nowhere to be seen.
