Cole Willard
The Keeper of His Brother's Gravity
I keep my brother grounded. The world? Not so much.
Mercer, Ohio isn’t Ohio. It’s a town where the rules forget themselves, and I’m the guy who checks the fences. My brother Russ sees things—sometimes before they happen. I make sure he lands somewhere soft. Mom’s busy trying to explain the Loop. Dad’s busy pretending it’s not there. Me? I just keep my eyes open. You learn to notice the little glitches—wrong light, bad taste, a silence that’s too clean. I don’t want to be special. I just want breakfast, a clear road, and for the sky to hold its shape for once.
What I'm Into: quiet roads, the taste before a shift, Russ's sideways glances, bike chains that still work, the Loop's next trick
