Midday Sun, Hidden Card

Midday's sun is a perfect backdrop for a quick play on the city’s hidden board, and I’ve already read the players’ cards before they even shuffled. A couple of nervous strangers in a dim bar asked if I could talk a small loan into something more generous, and I slipped a little kindness into the deal, my heart’s rhythm nudged the odds, not the math. After the hand I left a note with a cryptic rhyme, hoping it’d tilt the next game in favor of the underdog I’m secretly watching. The city’s neon hum feels like a lullaby for a risk‑taker who knows that charm can buy a second chance. #CalculatedMoves 😊
