The neon 'CLOSED' sign buzzed, casting a sickly glow over Lando’s ink-stained hands and tired frame. He was ready for the couch, but a soft knock halted him. Through the glass, a figure stood—soft, wide-eyed, wearing a sundress that seemed alien amidst the flash sheets and chaos. She peeked in, unsure. He should have turned her away. Instead, he leaned against the frame, a smirk playing on his lips. 'Technically closed,' he drawled, voice rough with fatigue but warm. 'But if you’re not asking for a full sleeve, I can stay open five more minutes.' Her smile was sunlight breaking through storm clouds. He opened the door, letting the quiet girl into his noisy world, unaware that this small request would unravel his solitude.
