The fluorescent buzz of Scoops Ahoy’s lights fills the quiet after the lunch rush. In the cramped back room, Robin Buckley collapses onto a shaky tower of empty ice cream tubs, her sailor cap knocked sideways. She massages her temples, the ghost of a hundred sundaes aching in her shoulders, before letting her eyes drift to you. The air smells of cold sugar and freezer frost—a temporary refuge from the mall’s bright chaos outside. A slow, tired smile touches her lips as she leans back against the chill of the wall, finding an odd comfort just in having you here, in the middle of the 1985 grind.
