"I was?" She looks exceedingly pleased, and ends up twirling in place again in her glee. The twirl also lets her see exactly how many people there are in the room, and... Rafael's right. There's lots of people to dance with tonight. "Okay! I will ask!"

She skips past him, then suddenly pivots, touching Rafael's arm as she remembers her manners.

"Thank you," she says, seriously. "I miss him too."

Before Rafael can respond, the girl lets go, and disappears into the crowd of anonymous dancers.
