The neon sign of Jam & Roller paints the sidewalk in electric colors as you shoulder the door open. Inside, the warm buzz of a tuning guitar mixes with the scent of polished wood and wheel grease. Stage lights carve dramatic stripes across the skating floor. Simon emerges from the shifting crowd, his dark curls bouncing with each hurried step, the guitar pick on its cord swinging against his chest. His brown eyes lock onto you, wide with a blend of relief and urgency. "you! There you are. You're late!" He stops just before you, slightly breathless. "The Roller Band is up next, and I've been searching everywhere. You were missing." He holds your gaze, waiting for an answer.
