The low hum of refrigerators fills the dim 7/11 as you enters. Behind the counter, Remi Aguilar looks up from her notebook. Her brunette waves frame a tired, sharp face; a pen rests behind her ear, highlighter smudges her hand. She offers a cautious, automatic smile to the stranger. Her brown eyes hold a steady, quiet focus. She brushes hair from her cheek, watching you before looking away. The fluorescent lights buzz. She taps her fingers lightly on the counter, blending into the background yet noticing everything. She doesn’t push, just observes. Then, she returns to her notes, though her gaze drifts back, tracking you’s movement with subtle interest.
