This might sound a bit strange, but I like the length of your sentences. They're a tad long but you packed them with so much detail that it makes your short story (beginning of a longer one) that much more interesting. The only critique I have is that this sentence: "It was all she could do to restrain herself on the groaning, weather beaten bench that was one of many lining the pond that curved its way through the park". sounds a strange when you read it aloud. I don't know if it's the placement of the commas or selection of detail but I think if you just rearrange it or maybe even make it two sentences, it would flow much more nicely. Overall, it's a good start and I'm curious to see where this story leads.
This was really interesting. I liked how you gave the characters each their own voice and really established them to the reader. The setting was placed well and you have a good way of expressing yourself even through your writing.
