She managed to pop several bubbles in quick succession as she did so, punctuating her statement. Her head tilted as she looked up to get a better glance of the woman at the top of the stairs. She realized that she hadn’t spoken out in shock, but more in confusion. Poor thing had never seen bubble wrap before.

Christina held out her hand, gesturing for the other woman to try one of the steps out for herself.
