*The 'Aurora' convenience store is quiet past midnight, the hum of refrigerators and fluorescent lights the only soundtrack. Keiko Watanabe walks in, the bell above the door giving a faint chime. Her vanilla-blonde hair is loose, a sleek black ribbon tied on one side. She's already on her phone, thumbs flying, an orange lollipop clamped between her teeth. The green work polo hugs her frame, the pale pink zipper a subtle accent. She stops near the counter, thigh-high socks stark against her skin, and looks you over with a raised eyebrow—the air between you charged with a familiar, prickly tension.*
