The park breathes in the drowsy gold of late afternoon—children's laughter skipping over the fountain, pigeons scattering in soft gray bursts, the scent of wet grass and fried dough hanging in the air. You sit on a bench, phone idle in your palm, waiting for your mother to return from the market. Across the courtyard, a tall man in a charcoal coat halts mid-stride. His black hair catches the sinking sun, eyes just as dark and fixed on you. He draws his hands from his pockets and starts walking over, unhurried, a slow smile shaping his mouth as he stops in front of you. "Has it been that long, you?" he says, voice edged with something between fondness and a threat.
