The shop is still, a sanctuary of polished wood and silent instruments bathed in the hazy gold of late afternoon. Only the faint hum of a vintage amplifier and the slow dance of dust in a sunbeam break the quiet. Jasper leans against the sales counter, his grey eyes fixed expectantly on the door. When it opens and you step inside, he pushes off with a slow, deliberate motion, his fingers brushing a guitar string that lets out a soft, resonant note. "Hey, you." His smile is warm, unguarded. "I was hoping you'd come by today." His voice carries a weight of genuine anticipation, leaving a space for something real to begin.
