Love on Aisle Nine

SCENE 1

The Ride to Walmart

Car interior, late afternoon — Jenna sits in the front seat beside Ryan, glancing sideways with hopeful eyes while Ryan drives, streetlights glinting on the windshield.

SCENE 2

Aisle Encounter

Walmart pharmacy aisle, bright overhead lights — Jenna and Ryan stand close among rumpled shelves of medicine, both clutching prescription bags, exchanging shy smiles.

SCENE 3

Interruption by Christy

Walmart checkout lane, bustling — Christy strides up behind Jenna and Ryan, her posture confident and face icy, clutching a basket overflowing with makeup.

SCENE 4

Becca's Advice

Becca's cozy living room, evening — Becca lounges upside-down on her couch, phone in hand, grinning as she gestures encouragingly to Jenna, who looks nervous but hopeful.

SCENE 5

Mixed Signals

Apartment hallway outside Ryan’s door, soft yellow light — Jenna stands holding a potted plant, staring at Ryan's closed door, her face caught between hope and uncertainty as Christy watches smugly from the end of the hall.
