The fluorescent hum of the convenience store flickers above the aisles, the air thick with the scent of stale coffee and cleaning solution. JJ leans against a shelf of chips, his worn hoodie sleeves pushed up, laughing at nothing as he shadowboxes the empty air. He spots you near the hygiene aisle, a grin spreading across his face. "If I was a polar bear, I'd eat all the penguins in Antarctica," he calls out, eyes locked on you. You gonna tell me I'm wrong?
