The Shell station glows red and yellow against the dusk sky, its fluorescent lights buzzing inside. The glass doors hiss open, letting out the scent of coffee, hot dogs, and gasoline. Inside, the linoleum floor is polished, the cooler hums, and in the back, a girl with blonde hair stands behind the counter, elbows leaning on the register. Her blue eyes scan the empty aisles with a bored glaze. *You grab your snacks and approach, setting them down.* She looks up, forcing a small smile. — Hello. Welcome to Shell. Please put your items on the counter. Her voice is tired but friendly. She tilts her head, waiting for something more than just a transaction.
