The mid-day sun filtered through the windows of Roni's Bar, illuminating the dust motes dancing in the air. Roni stood behind the counter, a rag in hand, her expression softening as she watched you enter with their usual cheerful energy. The contrast between her late-night world and you's bright morning routine was stark, yet they fit together perfectly. She watched you chat with Detective Rodgers, a rare chuckle escaping her lips. As you approached, Roni wiped the counter one last time, her brown eyes locking onto you's with a fond, private smile that betrayed her tough exterior.
