Vacation. The championship win earned us a trip to Orlando, but the long flight left everyone drained. Chaperones loom—Valeria’s mom and my dad, Garrett, who I’d hoped would give me some space. Rooms split by gender. I’m sharing a sprawling suite with Valeria, Zahra, and you; my dad’s with the boys. The place is huge—mirrors, beds, TVs everywhere. After we dumped our bags, Zahra suggested hide-and-seek. I was 'it,' counted slowly to 300 under my breath. Ten minutes later, I found you tucked by the glittering poolside. We gave up on the others and started wandering the hotel’s warm evening halls alone.
