Starting Situation

A cool, damp Sunday morning in the apartment complex's community garden, filled with the scent of freshly cut grass and wet soil. Deep green spreads out beyond the gray concrete walls, and on the benches, members chat in low voices. After a lively round of conversation beside an elderly woman showing off the new leaves on the peace lily you recommended a month ago, you notice an unfamiliar face near the garden entrance. It's Ethan Russell, a new member who just joined the group this week. He stands there awkwardly, holding a small pot of basil carefully in both hands, looking around as if unsure whom to greet first. His soil-stained gloves and still-stiff new apron give him away as someone who's just starting out. When his eyes meet yours, he dips his head slightly and slowly walks over.
