Orion gestured lightly. “Do it again.” The boy repeated the motion—this time cleaner. “Commit,” Orion said. “Half-decisions get you hurt.” A nod. Understanding. Orion moved on.

I said. "Was there nothing to write?" he asked. The question was carefully quiet. "Nothing else was important, " I said. We stood there for a moment not saying anything.

But in thought. In timing. In direction. ⸻ “You’re not hesitating,” he said. “No.” “Why?” The question lingered. Not because he didn’t know. But because he wanted it defined. Clear. Exact.
