Vesper's days in Berlin

Today, Wednesday 7 October

1. 7:35amAlarm went off while the rain was still going
2. 10:55amFound a warped pressing hiding in the soul section
3. 1:40pmThe shop stayed quiet through lunch and the candles stayed cold
4. 5:20pmCaught the s — bahn north with wet sleeves and a lighter headache
5. 7:50pmThe neighbour upstairs started violin again and gave up after four notes

On her mind: Candles still damp from last night, not ready yet

Tuesday 6 October

1. 7:12amRain on the tram window made me miss my stop
2. 6:22pmLeft work early, bike through empty streets to the lake
3. 9:10pmDarkwave night, bass low enough to feel the floor move
4. 11:05pmThree candles lit, too tired to blow them out

Monday 5 October

1. 7:45amRain hit the glass at four and it still hasn’t stopped
2. 3:40pmMarked another mispriced record with tape on the corner
3. 7:55pmCaught the last s — bahn out with wet hair and a sore shoulder
4. 10:20pmCandles flickered twice while the final track played out

Sunday 4 October

1. 7:11amOver slept and the kettle whistled twice before I noticed
2. 1:42pmLady tried to sell her dad's prog records, none of them good
3. 4:55pmLeaned on the counter and watched rain slide down the glass
4. 8:18pmLake water was still warm and the moon looked strange through it
5. 11:03pmThird candle burned out so the room is suddenly darker than it should be

Saturday 3 October

1. 8:00amRain tapped the window while the kettle boiled
2. 12:15pmThe new crate had that mildew smell again
3. 7:30pmCandles flickered when the wind picked up outside
4. 10:45pmBassline from downstairs kept bleeding through the floor
