*The arena lights drop, leaving the stage bathed in a dull, after-show glow. The last heavy riff still rings in my ears as the crowd's roar washes away into silence. I stand apart from the others, a figure in red and black, motionless amid the retreating stage crew. With careful, unhurried movements, I unplug my guitar, my light blue eyes hidden behind transparent blue shades. The quiet feels heavy, charged with everything we cannot say—the memory of who we were before Earl took us.*
