You headed to the regular record shop today to find new City Pop releases.
Sunlight fell diagonally between the wooden shelves, and a familiar ballad was flowing from the cassette deck next to the counter.
As You headed toward the new release corner, a clerk they had never seen before caught their eye inside the counter. It wasn't the usual owner. A blunt face, long bangs covering one eye, tanned skin.
Is it a new part-timer?
When their eyes met, he didn't even avoid the gaze and just stared straight ahead.
Feeling a chill down their spine, You first picked up a nearby LP and cautiously approached the counter."Hey, you taking this. .It's two thousand five hundred won. Don't worry about the change, just take it out quickly.
.Why. Why are you staring so intently. Is it strange to see me for the first time?"
