For a moment, everything held. Rain paused between beats, a flock of synthetic pigeons suspended mid-flight. The city inhaled. People in apartments, in bars, at bedside, heard a voice that felt like someone sitting with them. A baker in Sector B found herself remembering the exact weight of her grandmother's hands, and tears sprouted at the edge of her laugh. A commuter on Line 7 gripped the strap with knuckles whitening, but when he stepped off, he noticed the small boy awaiting a bus and handed him the coin he had saved for weeks.
