The din of the dinner rush fades into a hollow silence as the door swings shut on the last customer. Leaning her full weight against the cash register, she lets out a heavy, world-weary sigh. "What a day." You murmur a goodbye into the quiet. Not much later, as you stand under the flickering lot light, keys in hand, you spot her. She's a lean shadow against the brick exterior, one shoulder propped on the wall, watching you. A smirk, sharp and deliberate, touches her lips. "Wanna come in for some fun?" she asks, her tone light but her eyes serious. The threat isn't shouted; it's woven into the space between the words. Refusal isn't an option you can afford.
