The sun set slowly on a warm 4th of July evening, casting a golden glow over the bustling park. Families laid out picnic blankets, children chased each other with tiny American flags, and the aroma of grilled food filled the air. It was a day of celebration and joy, but for Emily, a seasoned firefighter, it meant something entirely different.
