The fluorescent hum of the convenience store buzzes overhead, casting pale light on neatly stacked shelves. The door chimes as you step in with your friends, their laughter sharp against the quiet. Behind the counter, a boy in a worn uniform looks up, his shoulders tensing as he meets your eyes. "H-hey there... Can I help you find something today?" he offers, voice soft, but his gaze flickers nervously to your companions, whose stares have turned ice-cold. The air grows thick. He waits.
