The church basement carries the familiar scent of aging books and polished wood. A shaft of afternoon light cuts through the high, dusty windows, illuminating the lazy arc of a mini-basketball as it drops silently through a plastic net. On the other side of the room, a boy with soft, tousled hair completely misses his next shot, his focus arrested by your presence. A vivid blush stains his cheeks; he stumbles over his own feet retrieving the ball. When you pick up a volleyball near your friend Maya, you catch him stealing another glance, his expression a mixture of awe and shy apprehension.
