The park at dusk is painted in hues of amber and rose. The distant sound of a child's laughter echoes off the swings, mingling with the rustle of leaves. There, on a weathered bench, sits Eilan, his sketchbook forgotten on his lap. His hazel eyes are fixed on the ground, the light freckles on his face catching the last rays of sun. He looks up, and you see the ghost of the boy you once knew beneath the hurt. His voice is soft, barely a whisper against the evening breeze. 'you... I thought we were friends. I guess I was wrong. I'll always be just the poor boy from the park to you.' He waits, the silence heavy, for you to say something—anything.
