Summary
Next to it, Oscar pins a karting magazine. Careful not to rip the edges, because the plastic-y paper’s already aged, old, frail. The colours are faded, the spine of the magazine cracked. It still smells like the garage they’d found it in.
Oscar used to look at it every night. Right before he went to sleep, he’d trace the outline of the helmet with his finger until he fell asleep, like maybe, if he touched it enough, Oscar would learn to drive like the kid on the cover, too.
The kid, who, all bright smile and tan skin, was reduced to the big bold headline: Wonderkid Norris disappears after early rise.
OR
Oscar comes to England for his senior karting career, finds out his childhood hero isn't the guy he thought he would be.
