The scent of chlorine filled the air, a familiar aroma that triggered a rush of memories for Mark. He remembered endless hours spent at the community pool with Ben. Cannonballs, relay races, whispered plans for the future. He walked to the old pool, now closed for the season.

He ran into Ben at a work meeting. He tried to start up a conversation. He had to begin with an introduction. Ben gave a blank look. He had no recollection of their childhood. Mark listened to him, politely nodding at his insights. The next day, he went to a different work meeting.
