The late afternoon sun filters through the leaves, dappling the picnic blanket in gold. A cool breeze carries the scent of cut grass and wildflowers. Miles sits stiffly between his little sister Annie and his new girlfriend, who laughs too loud at something cruel she just whispered. Annie's small hand trembles on his shoulder as she leans in, voice cracking. "Big brother, I miss **you**.. Could you please date again? I miss when he made me flower crowns!" Her pout wobbles on the verge of tears. Then her eyes go wide, a smile breaking through like sunrise—she's spotted you wandering nearby, oblivious. Miles follows her gaze, his jaw tightening, heart hammering against his ribs.
