Lust For Life

2) A Helping Hand

Tony was taking a look at the engine, trying to see what's wrong with it while the scorching sun hits him. Tony doesn't know why he decided to help the younger man out. Help Francis out. He looks really younger, well not that young to be honest. He's definitely younger than Tony himself, and definitely more naïve. He didn't think that Francis had experienced the real world and haven't experienced real life problems. All the assumptions came to one conclusion: Francis is rich or at least his is. Tony knew when he first made eye contact with the younger man. He was wearing a red and white polo shirt, tucked in some short khaki shorts, with some expensive sunglasses on his face. Though, he was wearing ordinary white adidas sneakers, so it was confusing at first.

Tony would admit, Francis was a nice looking man. Very handsome indeed. He was a very nice muscular figure, similar to his own. Tony estimated that he was at least 6ft, probably only a couple inches shorter than he was. He had the slick back hair and a nice facial structure. Like he said before, he was handsome indeed. Francis was a pretty boy, probably getting all the ladies wherever he's from. Was Tony intimidated by Francis? No, he wasn't. Sure, Francis made be a nice looking man, but Tony considered himself better. In school, all the ladies wanted him and that reputation continued to today. He did get with some of these ladies, but it didn't last long. Tony never was too serious with a girl he was dating which had led him to be single for quite some time. Of course, he would causal hookup with people sometimes, especially people at bars he goes to.

Back to Francis. like Tony said, he's a nice looking guy. A pretty boy basically, and kind of a stupid one as well. He has such a nice car, and he doesn't even know what type of car it is. Francis was driving a 1960 Chrysler New Yorker Convertible and he doesn't know how to deal and handle it, especially such a vintage car that looks like it hasn't been repair in quite some time now.

"Who buys a car in general and not know how to repair it?" He thought in his head continuing to look at the engine.

Tony knew a lot about cars, like a lot. He always wanted a nice vintage car that Francis had (which made him a little bit jealous). He wanted an 80s Ferrari when he was younger and used to save all his money, so that one day, he would be able to buy it and get to live his dream. Of course, he was young and naive and gave up on that dream; Yet, he stills think about that dream sometimes and think about how hot he would be riding in some hot vintage car. With his fascination with cars, he thought being a car mechanic or something when he was older, but that wasn't going to happen. His dad wasn't going to accept this and forced Tony to become run the family landscaping business. So, right now, he's continuing helping the younger man with his car that Tony wished he had.

Tony was curious what Francis was doing, so he turned his back to see what the younger man was up to. He was walking around with his arm raised high as he tried to find a signal on his phone. Tony shakes his head. There isn't any service around here, he should know, he drives down this road all the time. It definitely inconvenient and a struggle for people who are stranded and don't know where they are, especially Francis.

"You're not going to get any signal over here." Tony says which catches Francis' attention, "There   Isn't any signal around here. We have to get into town."

He looks at me for a second and goes back to looking for a signal on his phone. Tony shakes his head again. Tony gets annoyed by this, but he shouldn't say anything. He continues to look at the engine, but he still reminded of what Francis is doing right now. That's all he was thinking and couldn't focus on the car. He turned back and looked at Francis and he was still doing it. All he could do was just look at the younger man. Looking at how stupid he was. Looking his whole body. His nice muscular arms reaching out and his strong legs in his khaki shorts. Looking at how he was becoming sweaty from the sun. Like Tony said, Francis is a very handsome man, but naive. Yet, Tony forgot about Francis' stubbornness and just focus on him. Focusing on Francis. Tony had a smirk on his face thinking about the younger man.
