"Thank you." She turns to face him, realizing too late that she is still so close to him and now she is even closer. Despite the sudden butterflies having a mosh pit in her belly, her smile is small, soft for a moment, before she adds, dancing away from him:
"And thank your Papa for my new sunglasses."
She will never get to keep Cassian, the least she can hold on to is something that reminds her of him. And she will get lots of use from these sunglasses, pushing them back into her hair where they settle amongst her braids like a tiara.
She needs to find her shoes again, wondering if she can get away with converse with this dress. It's white, they might work. And if she waits until the last minute Bodhi won't be able to stop her. Ha, victory.
