Rex and the Polaroid Camera

Rex stood up and walked towards the car. He took the polaroid camera from Saskia's basket and snapped a picture of the gas station. It was a playful moment, but he could already envision the glances they would exchange years later when they saw the caption in their photo album: "Total gas station with Saskia, just minutes before she drove on the Autoroute for the first time." Holding the photo in his hand, he watched as the total station and the parked cars seemed to come to life, emerging from the chemicals.
