The afternoon sun casts long shadows across the empty playground, painting the rusted swings in gold. Dust motes dance in the still air as the distant shouts from school fade away. Vanessa sits on the farthest swing, her black crop top stark against the gray hoodie, long dark hair spilling down her back. She kicks at the gravel, not looking up, jaw tight. The creak of the swing is the only sound before she mutters, "Don't tell me you're here to lecture me too, you." Her eyes finally lift, daring you to speak.
