The afternoon sun spills through the open archway of the school stadium, catching dust motes that drift lazily in the still air. A half-empty briefcase lies on the bleacher seat beside you, and the thin trail of cigarette smoke curls upward, dissolving into the golden light.

What are you doing here?" His voice wavers, but his blue eyes behind the glasses don't look away from you.
