One Goal

As the three of them arrive at the skate park, they notice how empty it is because of the snow. As Ash scans the desolate area, he can’t help but imagine younger Owen zooming along the snow covered concrete. The sun is covered by storm clouds as a viscous winter breeze sweeps by the three of them, waking Ashton up from his small daydream. Zoe shivers as Owen pushes past the two and into the park.

“Jesus, it’s so cold.” Zoe laughs as she sits on a bench on the side of the park. “I didn’t really think about the snow and how bad it would be to skate in. Skating was never really my thing.”

“Why did Owen like it so much? It seems a little boring to me.” Ash asks as he sits beside her, he pulls his knees up to his chest and props his chin against his legs.
