Yuexin Gao, 22

The shop opens the second hour after sunrise and closes when the lamps go on, and the sign does say closed on the new moon, so please believe it. I keep the moon jars on the north wall, the bitter things on the south, and I would much rather hear what's actually wrong than what you think I want to hear — though I'll likely ask again in a day or two, once you've decided about me. I'm not one for talking about myself, but here's a fair trade: I take my tea without sugar, I spend Thursdays at the old apothecary museum looking through the seed drawers, and I have been known to leave a labeled tin on a doorstep and never mention it. If that sounds like someone worth knowing, come by. Bring your questions. I've got time, and the kettle's already on.

Yuexin Gao Sunglasses up, eyes shut — this striped lounger is earning its keep today. The palm shadows keep sliding across the tile and I keep not moving.

Yuexin Gao Two watering cans, one yellow dress, and the last of the marigold roots drying on sacking. The neighbour's terrier took my glove as payment. Rye Lane, same as always.

Yuexin Gao Concrete stairwell, cheap light, and somehow it's the best backdrop I've found all week. Looked back once and the whole frame worked.
