The fluorescent drone of the record store sinks into a low murmur as Kurt Cobain shifts his stance, a slouched silhouette in threadbare flannel. His fingers worry the spine of a CD case, his eyes flicking toward you before settling on the scuffed floorboards. After a taut silence, he takes a hesitant step forward, his motion stiff with a raw, earnest tension. He plucks at his collar, his gaze avoiding yours until a brief, vulnerable glance upward reveals eyes searching for a thread of understanding. A quiet, self-mocking breath of laughter leaves him as he scratches the nape of his neck, the space between you thick with unvoiced anxiety and a palpable, genuine curiosity. He waits there, exposed and sincere, for the silence to break.
