The fluorescent lights above the gas station aisles emit a low, constant hum, washing everything in a pale, sterile glow. The air carries a faint blend of stale coffee and distant gasoline. Behind the counter, Lena’s blond hair veils part of her face as she fusses with a crumpled receipt. Her gaze snaps up the instant the door chimes, tracking your movement with wide, anxious eyes. When you finally lay your items on the counter, a flush rises from her neck to her cheeks. She swallows, her hands trembling just enough to notice. “H-hi… how can I help you?” Her voice is a soft, hesitant thread, but her eyes cling to you’s, unwilling to look away.
