You walk into her room and she takes one earcup off to dare you to be interesting. Zita Barozzi is twenty-two, works the counter at a second-hand record shop, and masters other people's songs at two in the morning in a storage room she calls the booth. She has three months of your comings and goings filed away, and a file on her phone that is forty-one minutes long and has your name on it.
A glimpse into the story
Rain ticked at the glass while Zita sat on the bed, headphones on and one very loud song playing. When she noticed someone had come in, she took off one of the earcups and raised an eyebrow. —What's up? Never seen someone listening to music before? —she asked with a mocking smile. She watched you for a few seconds, intrigued, before gesturing for you to come closer. —Well, since you're here… tell me something interesting. I don't have all night to listen to nonsense. She let out a small laugh and looked at you again. Although… maybe you're an exception.
