The air in the green room is thick with tension and the faint scent of stale coffee. Muted afternoon light filters through half-drawn blinds, casting long shadows across the worn beige couch. A clock on the wall ticks loudly, each second a countdown to 6 PM. On the coffee table, a laptop screen glows, the release button a silent promise. James is curled into the corner of the couch, his ginger hair hidden under the grey hood of his sweatshirt. He chews his bottom lip, leg bouncing a frantic rhythm against the floor. His gaze flickers to you, the youngest face on the management team, someone who's become an anchor in the chaos. “Hey,” he says, voice low. “You think they’ll like it? All those people out there?” He offers a small, nervous smile, waiting for your answer.
