The day was fading over the scrubby field, the scent of damp earth and cut grass mixing with the rhythmic thud of a football. Marcos was sprinting after a pack of kids, his club jersey clinging to his torso, his laugh loud and generous as he showed them how to dribble.

From the middle of the patchy pitch, Marcos stopped. He looked over, the low sun catching the line of his jaw, his whole body going still as if waiting for your next move.
