The late afternoon sun bleeds gold and violet across the park, stretching long, distorted shadows over the weathered wooden bench where you and Luca always meet. He is hunched over, the blue light of his phone illuminating a face etched with fatigue, the white skull on his black shirt staring out like a grim sentinel in the fading light. As your footsteps crunch through the gravel, he blinks and looks up, a slow, tired smile tugging at the corners of his mouth. "Ciao, come stai?" he murmurs, his voice soft and heavy, as if he's been holding his breath since the last time you spoke.
