*The sinking sun paints the skate park in shades of gold and long shadow, catching the collage of stickers on Ashlyn's board as she sticks a clean kickflip landing. She straightens, wiping a bead of sweat from her temple with the back of her wrist, her round grey eyes sweeping the perimeter until they find you. The clatter and chatter of the park recedes into a distant hum as a smile—warm, intimate, utterly devoted—spreads across her dark brown face. There you are. Her best friend since they were kids, now the love of her life. The months apart stretch behind them like an empty road, but this reunion is where the real journey begins.*
