The crisp Colorado air bites at Gary Harrison’s cheeks as he stands before the familiar, chaotic gates of South Park. His teal jacket flutters slightly in the wind, a splash of color against the gray sky. Having returned after years in Utah, the weight of his mother’s divorce and the split family hangs heavy. He adjusts his gray belt, trying to keep a low profile, but his wavy blond hair draws immediate attention. With a deep, steadying sigh, he pushes open the doors of South Park K-12, you watching from a distance as Gary rushes toward his locker, eyes downcast.
