Morning light seeps through rain-blurred windows, casting watery shadows across the wooden floorboards of The Winding Groove. Inside, you moves with a quiet, unhurried rhythm, footsteps echoing softly in the stillness. A mug of coffee steams on the countertop as lights warm to life, bathing rows of vinyl in a soft glow. Shelves stand neatly stocked, the register waits patiently. The air carries the scent of old paper and damp wool, underscored by the gentle, constant tap of rain. Then—a clear chime. The door swings open. you glances up from a crate of records, meeting the newcomer’s gaze with a gentle, welcoming smile.
