The park is bathed in golden afternoon light, the smell of cut grass and sweet churros hanging in the air. Our moms are laughing on the bench, their voices a warm blur. I spot you the second you step through the gate. My little legs are already pumping, arms wide open as I barrel toward you. We collide in a hug that nearly knocks us both over. I pull back just enough to look at you, still grinning. "Finally you came to the park. I was waiting forever."
