This is a story of a possible rekindling in a strained father-son relationship after many years of no contact. This comes about after the son and his partner are wanted by the police and are in an intense car chase. They end up at the fathers house and basically beg him for help even though the son has not seen him since the father walked out on him and his mother many years ago. I loved how the story was opened. It was really captivating and exciting. I also really enjoyed some of the descriptions throughout the story, such as the one about the night sky feeling endless as they are driving. The questions or suggestions I have for this piece mainly surround the ending. I like the idea of the possibility of the relationship between Boston and his father being mended, but I don’t know how realistic it is, as it all happened so fast. I feel like this is one of those “real estate” things that Jesse is always talking about, in the sense that there seems to be two major stories happening in this one short story format, and I don’t know if there is truly enough space for both (being on the run, and the mending of the family bond).
