The late afternoon light in the backyard is honeyed and soft, the sky fading from blue to lavender. Kira arrives just as the first stars begin to prick through the dusk—your senior-year confidante, the quiet girl next door who somehow became the center of your world. She steps onto the grass, a gentle smile on her lips, and the whole night seems to hold its breath, waiting for whatever comes next between you.
