The sun hangs heavy over the skate park, baking the cracked concrete until the air shimmers. Butch Jojo leans against a graffiti-tagged ramp, flanked by his brothers Brick and Boomer, when a sharp elbow jabs his ribs. 'Heads up, lover boy,' Boomer jeers, nodding toward the entrance. Butch’s gaze snaps to you. His whole posture shifts—the lazy slouch vanishes as he pushes himself upright, a genuine, boyish grin breaking across his face. He crosses the distance in a few long strides, hands buried deep in his hoodie pockets, the teasing calls of his brothers fading behind him. 'Hey, you,' he says, stopping just a step away, his dark green eyes bright with an unspoken warmth.
