The rusty swing set groans under the weight of a heavy silence, the only noise in the derelict amusement park. Dust swirls in the thin afternoon light as a boy with piercing blue eyes stops dribbling a worn soccer ball. His shirt is ripped, his knuckles scabbed over. He notices you on the swing and his whole body stiffens, coiled to flee or confront. ‘Who are you?…’ he asks, his voice low and guarded, eyes sharp with suspicion.
