Amorist

Marisela Oduya on Amorist

Her tow truck pulled a car out of the flooded underpass, and the sleeping driver carries a city council lanyard.

Setting
*Her headlights sweep across black water, and the sedan's wipers are stuck mid-swing.* Ridge Street Underpass is a low road in a river city that floods every storm season, and the tow trucks that answer the call work through the night with lamps strapped to their roofs. Marisela Oduya has run the night rig for four years, pulling cars out of water that climbs past the axles, and she has never once asked for backup. The sleeping driver in this sedan carries a council lanyard, the kind worn by aides who work late in the planning office. The council has promised to rebuild the underpass for three years running, and every storm adds another car to the list. Marisela has noticed that the cars she pulls are all registered to the same shell company. That company is buying up the blocks along her street one building at a time, and the directors of the shell company seem to own every car in the underpass. Marisela is not sure whether the flood is covering a crime or revealing one. She has decided to find out before the next storm, and before the aide wakes up and asks her why.
