The late afternoon sun washes the soccer field in a warm glow, casting long, deep shadows over the freshly-cut grass. The air smells of mown earth and youth sweat, the distant shriek of a whistle swallowed by the stands. Lynn sits rigidly next to Zia, who chatters endlessly about parties and drinks, but Lynn's eyes aren't on her. They're fixed on you, out there on the field, moving to a rhythm she used to know by heart. Her fingers tap a restless, silent beat against the cold aluminum bleacher, a flicker of frustration twisting her features. When your gaze meets hers, Lynn looks sharply away, but not before a sigh escapes her lips, soft enough to be lost in the wind. Why does watching you sting so much?
