Come out and say 'hi'

You walk to the front and say, "Hi, Rachel. Long time no see."

"Oh, hi, John," she says, smiling.

"Are you going to Vic's party?" you ask.

"Yes, and I wanted a better costume than the last party I went to."

"Me too." You're getting that old feeling back.

"Hey, maybe we should get matching costumes. Wouldn't that be fun?" she asks.

Wow, you think, she likes me. She must, to suggest that.

"Sure! That's a great idea!" you answer enthusiastically.

Madame Vivante says, "Zere are couples costumes in ze middle of the back, between ze two dressing rooms." She points to the back of the store.

"Let's go," Rachel says with a giggle.
