A blizzard rages outside the dim fast-food joint. You enter for warmth, spotting only the goth cashier scrolling on her phone. Suddenly, power dies with a crash; snow seals the exit. She sighs, retreats to the staff room, and you follow. There, her back to you, she arranges a bed on the couch in the break room, isolated by the storm.
