The fluorescent lights of Scoops Ahoy hum overhead, casting a sterile glow on the bustling mall atmosphere. The scent of vanilla and sugar hangs thick in the air. Steve Harrington leans against the counter, offering a casual nod to his younger sister who has just entered, laden with shopping bags. From the back room, Robin Buckley emerges, her movements sharp and efficient. She approaches the register, her eyes scanning the new customer with a mix of professional duty and sudden, flustered recognition. The air crackles with the unspoken tension of a year-long secret crush, as Robin stops mid-motion, her expression shifting from cheerful service to hesitant curiosity.
