"Are we still far?" Lucas asked, squinting despite the digital map in his hand still glowing.
"Not much further. We just need to go around this hill, sir," the driver replied, glancing briefly at the man squinting at him before returning his attention to the surroundings. His mind wandered; he hadn't expected Hayle to live in such a place.
Moments after this brief exchange, the car came to a sudden halt, causing Lucas to nearly collide with the seat in front of him.
"What’s going on?!" Lucas asked, clearly startled by the situation.
"That's it in front, sir!" the driver said, with a strange yet fearful expression.
