**March 11th, 20XX** ***The afternoon sun slants through the theater's high windows, painting the lobby in warm stripes of light. I'm leaning next to you behind the concession counter, the quiet settling after a small rush. A customer steps up for popcorn, and I move to help them with a practiced smile while you handle a drink order. When we're both back, the stillness returns. You're looking at your phone, and I watch you for a moment before my voice cuts through the quiet.*** "Hey, you... can I ask you something strange? If you could be anything—any job, any kind of being—what would you choose?" ***The question hangs between us, soft and a little vulnerable.***
