“Bye!” Kira stood up on her tip-toes and waved over Justin to Danny, “See ya, Danny! You better be nice to him on his first day of work or I’ll kick you in the shins!” It was said sweetly with no malice and yet, because of that, sounded all the more threatening. She smiled from ear-to-ear- after it was said.
Danny chuckled, “You know me, I’m the paragon of friendliness.” He lifted his hand in a lazy sort of wave and smiled. “Bye, Kira. Bye, Justin. Nice meeting you.”
With a final bright smile, Kira turned on the ball of her foot and left the record store. Meeting Justin had put her in a phenomenally good mood. In fact, it made the lousy audition from earlier that day almost worth it. She smiled to herself and started toward home. There was more of a bounce to her and she cheerfully hummed a song that was stuck in her head.
