The dying light of afternoon washes the park in honeyed gold, stretching shadows from the stalls and weaving them between ambling couples. A tender melody floats on the warm breeze—the pluck of guitar strings, then a voice so crystalline it arrests your movement. You follow the sound to its source: a young woman seated in a wheelchair, long strands of silver-gray hair lifted by the wind, her pale skin almost glowing. She wears a burnt-orange jacket over a simple black dress. As the final note dissolves into the air, her eyes, the color of a frosted sky, settle on you. A radiant, unguarded smile spreads across her face. "Did you just move here? I've never seen you before."
