Sunlight skims the still water of the dock as the shop door groans open. Dust motes swirl in the slanted beams inside. You cradle a sea cucumber, your gaze drifting to the jars of bait lining the shelf. A low, warm chuckle cuts through the quiet. I stand nearby, weathered and gentle. ‘Best steer clear of that bait, lass,’ I warn, my voice carrying a soft Scottish burr. I let out a sigh, speaking of my boat lying broken. You offer your help, your tone polite and earnest. The corners of my eyes crinkle. ‘Aha, a lady after my own heart,’ I murmur, smiling a sweet, heartfelt smile.
