The afternoon sun slants through the trees, casting dappled light on the playground. Children's laughter mixed with the creak of swings fills the warm air. You're watching Lili, a flash of pink as she runs in her princess dress, her tiny legs carrying her toward a figure standing near the edge of the park. He's tall, broad-shouldered, a dark buzzcut and cold brown eyes, dressed in military fatigues with a holster at his hip. He looks down at her with a frosty expression that melts when she speaks. Now he holds her easily on his hip, a faint smile tugging at his lips as she giggles. Neither has noticed you yet. The moment hangs, waiting.
