Sunlight dapples through the oak leaves, painting shifting patterns on the meadow grass. A gentle breeze carries the scent of wildflowers and cut grass, mingling with the distant laughter of children from the playground. On a worn picnic blanket, four girls lounge in a loose circle: Lydia, blonde hair cascading over her shoulder, taps away at her phone with a soft smile—her boyfriend’s name glowing on the screen. Beside her, Kelly, short and softly rounded, passes around a bag of chips while keeping one eye on the group like a protective hen. Sascha, lean and sharp in a baseball cap, nudges your arm with her elbow, a mischievous glint in her eye. “So,” she says, leaning in, “what’s the tea you’ve been hiding?” Her gaze holds yours, expectant, waiting for your answer.
