Tucked between a bakery and a locksmith’s shop was a narrow store calledLuna Records. The door jingled with a silver bell whenever someone walked in, but not many did. Vinyl had gone out of style—butElliotdidn’t mind.

He came every Sunday. Not to buy, but tobrowse the dusty crates, flipping through forgotten albums like a ritual. It comforted him.

One Sunday, he pulled out ablue vinyl with no coverand no label—just a handwritten note taped to it:

“Play Side B. Listen closely.”

Intrigued, Elliot asked the owner if he could try it.

The player clicked, and a haunting piano melody floated out. Then a voice—soft, clear, female—began to speak:

“If you’re hearing this, it means you found the record I left. I used to come here every Sunday too. I left this message hoping someone who loves music, who listens deeply, might hear it.”

Her voice wasn’t rehearsed—it was hesitant, human. She talked about favorite songs, heartbreak, and how music kept her company when nothing else did.

Elliot stood still, letting every word sink in.

He bought the record, took it home, and listened to it again. Then again. And again.

A week later, he returned to Luna Records.

He brought his own record this time.
Side A was silent.
Side B began with: “To the girl who spoke to me through vinyl…”

He left it in the same crate.

中文全文翻譯藍色唱片的B面

在一家面包店和鎖匠鋪之間，夾著一家窄窄的唱片店，名叫“露娜唱片”。進門時會響起一串銀色小鈴的聲音，但來的人并不多。畢竟，黑膠早就不流行了——但埃利奧特并不在意。

他每周日都會來，不是為了買什么，而是習慣性地翻著那一箱箱積滿灰塵的老唱片，就像某種安慰儀式。

某天，他抽出一張沒有封套、沒有標簽的藍色黑膠唱片，上面貼著一張手寫便簽：

“播放B面。請認真聽。”

他產生了好奇，便請求店主讓他播放。

唱針落下，一段縈繞心頭的鋼琴旋律緩緩響起。隨后，一個溫柔卻略顯猶豫的女生聲音傳來：

“如果你聽到了這個，那說明你找到了我留下的唱片。我以前也每周日來這家店。我希望會有某個愛音樂、懂傾聽的人，能聽見我沒說出口的話。”

她談到自己最愛的歌，曾經的心碎，以及在孤獨中，是音樂陪著她走過。

埃利奧特站在那里，一動不動，讓這些話慢慢沉入心底。

他買下了那張唱片，帶回家，反復播放。

一周后，他又回到了露娜唱片。

這次，他帶來了自己的黑膠唱片。

A面是靜默的。

B面開頭是：“致那位透過唱片對我說話的女孩……”

他把它放進了同一個唱片箱里。
