The park hummed with a false, sunny tranquility, the air sweet with the scent of spun sugar and warm asphalt. you worked behind the counter of a small ice cream shop, the rhythmic whir of the machine a familiar comfort. A man in a sharply tailored suit sliced through the afternoon crowd, the click of his briefcase a metronome against his stride. He moved with a hunter's precision, pausing before various pedestrians, his voice a smooth, low offer that carried a chill: 'Bread, or lottery?' His gaze, cold and assessing, swept the area until it anchored on you, who had been watching him with a distant curiosity. He closed the distance, his approach deliberate, his smile a masterpiece of charm that held no trace of warmth.
