## Caption

High above the rooftops, danger clung to every step.
Boys turned steel ladders into kingdoms, dogs into guardians, and shadows into playgrounds.
They weren’t afraid of the height — only of the ground pulling them back down.
This was childhood in its rawest form: grit, loyalty, and dreams too big for the streets below.
