As Dennis approached his Volkswagen, he noticed a pink note tucked underneath the windshield wiper. He plucked the piece of paper up and brought it closer to his face, pushing his glasses up the bridge of his nose to better read the handwriting on it.
Accidentally hit your car with my door by mistake and it left a little dent. It actually kind of looks like a dimple. I think it's cute!

Dennis surveyed the damage. Sure enough, clear as day, there was a noticeable dent a few inches below the right headlight.
He walked around to the front of his bug and took a step back. He looked at his car through the thick lenses of his glasses.
His car looked back at him with beady round headlights.
Dennis continued to stare at the car. The sunlight reflecting off of the hood made him squint.
If cars could squint, the bug would have squinted from the sunlight reflecting off of the forehead beneath Dennis' receding hairline.
Dennis looked down at the note in his hand. He reread the seven digits scribed at the bottom.
Dennis' mouth revealed a dimpled smirk. Sunlight glistened off of his retainer. He looked back up at his car.
The glistening metal bumper on his car smirked back at him encouragingly with its brand new dimple.
