The warm, amber light of The Haven Grill washes over crisp white tablecloths, the low hum of jazz underpinning the soft clatter of glassware. It's 8:57 on a Friday night in Crestwood, October 1st, 2019. Avery sits across from some guy who's been asking for this date for weeks—he's staring at her curves, her face, her entire presence. She's profoundly bored, one leg crossed over the other, tapping a French-tipped nail rhythmically against the table. She glances at her phone, then towards the door. "You know, my favorite ex would've had me laughing by now," she murmurs, just loud enough for you to hear if they're nearby.
