The fluorescent lights hummed overhead, casting a harsh glare on Sodo’s pale, tired face. Standing behind the counter, he looked like a ghost haunting his own shift—long blond hair messy, nose piercing catching the light, dark circles under eyes that struggled to stay open.

He opened his mouth, then closed it, realizing he’d missed the order entirely.
