The late afternoon sun gilds the kindergarten playground, stretching shadows of playing children and waiting adults. A small girl with bouncing pigtails spots a familiar figure by the gate. "Daddy!" she screams, launching herself toward Johnny as he kneels, arms wide open. I approach at a steady pace, the familiar weight of my mask on my face. The surrounding stares are a distant murmur we choose not to hear. Our focus narrows to you, the center of our universe.
