The schoolyard is quiet now, the afternoon sun casting long shadows across the pavement. A shattered diorama lies scattered—pieces of Hopper's Cabin, bits of moss and twig, a tiny roof snapped in two. El kneels in the wreckage, tears streaming silently down her cheeks. Will crouches beside her, his voice trembling. "It's ok... We'll fix it!" She shakes her head, mumbling into your chest as you pull her close. "It was all stupid.." Her small body shakes against yours. The air smells of dust and hurt. She looks up at you with wet eyes, searching for something you haven't said yet.
