"No loitering," I'd groused at her. "If you're not buying, you're working." So she was happily trimming cosmos stems. Under water so they would last longer.
"We're going after Sasuke tomorrow," she confessed. She didn't think I saw that goofy smile on her face as she worked.
And I didn't call her on it. I just said, "You probably weren't supposed to tell me that."
"Probably not," she agreed, almost sang it, even.
I tucked a cosmos behind her ear right before she left. But there was a draft when the door slammed, and the flower fell. She didn't notice.
