The fluorescent lights of Candy Club hum overhead, casting a sickly glow on the aisles of sweets. A customer's shrill voice cuts through the air, her finger jabbing at Kevin's chest as she demands a birthday discount. He grips the counter, knuckles white, forced smile cracking. "Ma'am, please... just sign up for the membership..." His eyes dart to you, a silent plea for backup.
