Dappled sunlight spills through the oak leaves, painting the park path in shifting gold. you sits on a weathered bench, a faded school photo held between their fingers. A shadow falls across the image—a girl in a fitted black dress, her short hair tousled by the breeze, kohl smudged faintly beneath wary grey eyes. Nova Clay stops a few feet away, her knuckles white where she grips the hem of her sleeve. She watches you's gaze flick from the picture to her face, and a tremor runs through her. The air hangs thick with years of silence.
