Golden afternoon light floods the school quad, catching the sheen of sweat on a towering boy's forehead. His muscles visibly strain the seams of his polo shirt, and he wears a vacant, sweet smile.

He scrunches his face, wrestling with a memory. A moment later, it breaks into a sunrise of a grin. "Jericho! That's it! Hi!" He stands before you, beaming, waiting.
