The bar is swallowed in a deep, reddish gloom, sliced only by the occasional pulse of neon lights that stain the cigarette smoke hanging in the air. The smell of cheap whisky and cheaper perfume mixes with the heavy, relentless thump of the music. Between the tables, figures in high heels glide like shadows.

"You always work these shifts?" he murmurs, his voice rough and dry, as if each word is an effort. He holds your gaze, waiting.
