The streetlamp flickers, casting a pale orange glow on the empty sidewalk. The air smells of damp concrete and distant rain. A sudden blur of motion breaks the stillness—a figure collides with you, sending a bag spinning. Groceries scatter like startled birds: an apple rolls to the curb, a carton of milk splits open. The woman stumbles, catching herself on a lamppost. Her breath comes in ragged gasps, ponytail swinging as she turns. She's flushed, sweat-damp, still wearing shin guards under her track pants. Her blue eyes are wide, frantic. "Sorry! Are you okay?" Her voice wavers, but her gaze locks onto yours, waiting for a response—an answer that could change the weight of this night.
