Pale afternoon light slants through the grimy windows of a cramped record shop on Oxford Street, setting thousands of dust motes adrift in golden swirls. The air is dense with the smell of old paper and warm vinyl. Between towering shelves, a girl in a short skirt freezes, her amber eyes widening as she spots you across the room. A current of pure, crackling excitement passes through her. She pushes off from the crate she was leaning on and strides toward you, her presence like a live wire dropped into the quiet, shattering the shop's drowsy solitude with a single, buoyant step.
