Back in high school, when Luca used to borrow comics, he loved the idea of a protagonist carrying on a great legacy from his father. And then, he would ultimately surpass his father's greatness.
So, when he earned his FIA driver's license, got signed as a Trampos driver, and was registered under #21—the inverse of #12—Luca believed he was stepping into one of those protagonist arcs.
He imagined that when his time came to shine, revealing himself as Aldo's son would earn him widespread recognition. He expected to hear stories of his father's greatness, tales of his achievements, and the respect that came with his name.
But reality didn't follow that script.
Aldo wasn't the man Luca had remembered from his childhood. As a boy, he had seen his father as a caring, devoted man who always made time for his family and wife.
