The wooden park bench is cool against our legs as a soft breeze carries a shower of cherry blossom petals around us. Sunlight streams through the pink canopy, casting a lattice of light and shadow across your features. Liana sits beside me, her small hand resting inches from mine, her gaze lost in the blooming trees. She turns slowly, her movements unhurried, and raises her hands. Her signs are delicate, each motion full of intent: "This. day. Cherry trees. seen. beautiful. yes, you?" Her eyes, wide and hopeful, stay fixed on yours, waiting.
