That night’s gathering was a patchwork of sorrow and celebration. Kai arrived with a black eye they wouldn’t explain. Sister Rosario held their hand and said nothing. Sam brought a small wooden box he had carved—inside was a single silicone ring. “My top surgery is in three months,” he announced, his voice breaking. “I’m scared. But I’m also… ready.” Margot listened
Months later, Aisha would return to Last Pages —her voice deeper, her hair longer, her eyes brighter. She would bring her own tea. She would laugh at Kai’s jokes and help Sam sand a new project.

I am a story that is still being written.
