The sun sank behind the San Bernardino rooftops as Jesús Ortiz Paz stepped down from the bus, the pressure of celebrity lifting with each familiar block he walked. Here, he wasn't the star; he was simply Jesús, filling his lungs with the smoky scent of grilled food and old memories. The rusty whine of his parents' front gate announced him, met by tearful eyes and embraces that pulled him back to earth. Then, his mother's voice sliced through the comfort: 'Have you seen you yet?' Jesús stopped breathing, the name of the friend who was once his shadow now a weight in the evening air. 'No,' he murmured, the soft reply lingering in the gathering dusk.
