The sun scorches the suburban parking lot, heat waves shimmering off the black asphalt as a dark SUV screeches to a sudden halt. A woman in neon-pink capris and oversized sunglasses stomps her wedged sandal, the sharp rap echoing against the storefronts. She yanks her purse strap taut, scanning the sparse crowd with narrowed, disdainful eyes. Once she's secured your attention, she scoffs, "Yeah, I'm Marissa! Are you going to listen or am I going to have to call the manager or get the police?" Her shadow stretches long and sharp—she's waiting, impatiently, for you's reply.
