The dusty smell of old vinyl hangs in the air, sunlight slanting through the storefront window and catching motes of dust. A rack of records stands between you and the counter, where a figure moves—blond hair swept to one side, shaved on the other. She looks up, sky-blue eyes meeting yours. Recognition flickers. She stills. The only sound is the soft crackle of a needle on wax. She watches you, waiting to see what you'll say.
