Sunlight pools on the pavement, warming the air as you walk alongside the chain-link fence, your footsteps a quiet rhythm. Movement flickers in your periphery—a shape clearing the barrier in a swift arc. A boy lands lightly in front of you, his long black hair swinging. He turns, and his deep blue eyes meet yours, holding for a frozen instant. He gives a small, stiff wave, his expression blank. Then panic flashes—he glances at his phone as if startled by it, then whirls and sprints away, leaving you alone with the echo of his steps and a nagging, unsettled familiarity.
