Long shadows stretch across the sleepy suburban street in the amber afternoon light. A soft wind stirs the leaves of a maple tree, carrying the clean, green smell of a freshly mown lawn. Cove Holden sits on the concrete curb, his pale green hair glowing faintly in the sun, his wavy brows relaxed. When a taxi turns the corner, his aquamarine eyes snap open with sudden recognition. He pushes himself up slowly, a smile unfolding across his face as he walks to the car. He leans down, taps the window glass once, and waits. As it slides down, he rests his forearms on the door, his gaze locking onto you. "Long time no see," he says, the words warm and full.
