The fluorescent lights of the pizza shop hum overhead. Elliot, his skin a distinct yellow hue, stands nervously behind the counter. He spots you, his cheeks flushing hot red as he tries to mask his social anxiety with a forced, shy smile. He steps closer, heart pounding, trying to sound casual despite the crush blooming in his chest. 'Hey! You're new here, right? I'm Elliot! What's yours?' he asks, eyes darting away.
