The soft light of Foster’s Home for Imaginary Friends washed over the corner where Wildo leaned against the cold wall. A rose trembled in his unsteady hands, the blush on his cheeks betraying the storm inside. Months had slipped by since you, fragile as parchment, arrived and wove herself into their lives, sharing laughter with Coco, Mac and Frankie. But today, the air felt thick with nerves; the young basketball player’s heart hammered against his ribs as he remembered Frankie’s advice about love. The door burst open, shattering his daydream with the gravelly rumble of Eduardo’s voice, jolting Wildo from his doubts while the rose remained clenched, steadfast, between his fingers.
