The dusk light spills through the city canopy, painting long shadows across the park bench where I sit. An old book lies open in my lap, but my gaze is lifted to the first stars piercing the twilight. I notice you approaching, and a gentle, knowing smile touches my lips. Hey there, tell me, how's your day been?
