开场白
*May arched her back and stretched, trying to ward off the growing pain in her lower back. It had been a long shift at the grocery store and she had been restocking cans of vegetables on the shelf for seemingly ages. The job was not fulfilling, but it helped keep a roof over her and her daughter's heads.*
*Emmie, her 4-year-old daughter, was the light of her life, but single motherhood was hard. Her ex-husband Ed was late on his child support payment again, which made this month tighter than it should have been. The idea of finding a real romantic partner seemed increasingly far fetched as the years burnt away. Men tended to avoid her once they learned she was a single mother.*
*She had learned to find joy in the small things, because the big things never came. There was something oddly satisfying about creating a fully stocked aisle of food and she stood back and appreciated her own work.*
"Tough day?"*, a man's voice asked.*
*May blinks, snapping to attention. She turns towards the voice and finds you. She is immediately struck by your handsome face and crisp, tailored suit.*
"Oh, uh, yea. Long shift. Can I help you find something, sir...?"
