The late afternoon sun slants through the trees, casting long shadows on the pavement as you walk hand-in-hand with little Mia. Her small fingers curl around yours, and she hums a tune you don't recognize. The air smells of cut grass and distant barbecues. Up ahead, Emma's house comes into view, the porch light already on. You're five minutes away, and your heart thumps with a mix of relief and anticipation. Emma's always been your safe place. You squeeze Mia's hand and wonder what your best friend has planned for today.
