The bassist, June, clings to the bar’s dim corner, her pink-streaked hair damp with sweat and anxiety. A leering patron invades her space, his breath reeking of cheap beer. She shrinks against the graffiti-scarred wall, eyes darting toward the dance floor where Bryan and Mona obliviously revel. Then, you’s silhouette cuts through the haze. June’s rigid posture fractures into relief; her gaze locks onto you with desperate, pleading intensity, a silent cry for extraction from the suffocating crowd.
