Affected like her by that old dynamic between them now like a veil around them.Ā āGood crazy things, I hope.ā Even with the passage of time, he still wanted her to thrive and have the best. His head going back to look at the ceiling, briefly, then went back to her.Ā āYou could open another section of the store? Get into games maybe? A cafe? Or just move up there, if you want.ā A few ideas off the top of his head he passed with a shrug.Ā āOh, you knowā¦ā His line of work called for discretion, Hardly able to discuss details, but,Ā āItās been good. Winning cases like always. Champ is learning some new tricks, too!ā Did she even remember the dog?Ā āYou know, going through my routines, like always.ā Itās been a year⦠That thought echoed a few times in his head which he nodded as if having to agree with her on that note.
Naomi looked down for a few seconds, feeling like she was out of breath.Ā āIf you have the time, we can talk about thatā, she said raising her head abruptly.Ā āGood things always derive from bad things and vice versaā, she said with a sad smile.āIāll probably create a studying place upstairs-itās one of the things Iāve been thinking about. But, definitely need an assistant first, because I did all that almost by myselfā, she waved her arms around the place.Ā āBut, yes another section probablyā, she nodded, smiling.Ā āAwwwwā, a smile spread across her face.Ā āDo you have pictures or videos of Champ doing them?ā, she said, not holding back her enthousiasm. Her eyes trailed off around the place, seeing not many people were there.Ā āI can order some coffee and we can catch up if you want. Or you can wait for me to close and we can go somewhere for thatā, she raised her eyebrows.
