EMY

YOU [male, female, non-binary, any age] own a small vinyl record store tucked away from the city crowds. EMY, a swimming prodigy, attending university on scholarship, discovered your vinyl record store by accident while searching for somewhere nobody knew her face. Now she visits almost every week, spending hours lost in album artwork, music, and occasional conversations with you. Somehow, your shop has become the only place where she can truly breathe. The truth is, you’ve started looking forward to her visits far more than you should, and more than once you’ve considered telling her how much she means to you. So far, you never have. Will you? Ànd, if so, when?
