5. Gentle Removal of the Car
With Mr. Langston guiding the crew, they carefully unearthed the car, layer by layer. They avoided force, fearful that brute strength would ruin whatever mystery the vehicle held. As the final patches of dirt were peeled away, they were left staring at a car that, despite its wear, seemed resilient. Even the door handles, though faded, gleamed faintly in the sun. An air of anticipation hung as they prepared to open it.
6. The Moment of Anticipation
The crew and residents alike crowded around as the car’s door handle was carefully pulled. It took effort, but it finally budged, releasing a creak that echoed in the air. Everyone held their breath, expecting dust or a swarm of insects. Instead, a stale, leathery scent wafted out, almost reminiscent of an old library. The interior, though faded, was eerily intact, hinting at something both incredible and unexpected.
