Rough Isn't Rough Enough

John Strong, Harmony Rose Pic(s)

John Strong slammed the gearshift into a lower ratio, the truck groaning in protest as its tires clawed for purchase on the jagged scree. He cast a sidelong glance at Harmony Rose, whose knuckles were white where she gripped the dashboard, her usual composure replaced by a focused intensity. “They said this was the worst road in the territory,” he shouted over the engine’s roar, “but it feels like a freshly paved highway.” Harmony simply nodded, her eyes fixed on the treacherous path ahead that snaked up the mountain’s sheer face like a forgotten scar. She knew his frustration was a tangible thing, a simmering energy that filled the cab as potently as the dust swirling in through the vents. For John, a man who measured his life in challenges conquered, a path that failed to test his limits was a personal insult. The landscape itself seemed to mock them, a beautiful yet brutal expanse of eroded canyons and razorback ridges that demanded a more profound struggle. “Rough isn’t rough enough,” Harmony finally stated, her voice calm but cutting through the cacophony, giving voice to the shared, unspoken thought. They were not merely seeking a destination but a transformation, a trial by stone and dust that would forge them anew or break them completely. This journey was proving that the most difficult terrain to cross was not the one outside the vehicle, but the one within their own restless spirits.
