Day 329
What a day in Seahaven Springs—the kind where rain brings everyone together and small mysteries find their quiet endings. Bev left the sheriff's office with her head held high, Truman and Norma saw their roofing work through to completion, and somewhere between the bakery queue and the café's crowded tables, the whole town seemed to remember why it loves this place. Even Gus played piano like nobody was listening (because, kindly, everyone pretended they weren't), and as the rain cleared to reveal that perfect rainbow, it felt like the sort of ending that makes you grateful for ordinary Sundays and the people who share them with you.
