"Wow, look at you! What happened to you?"
Seated behind the diner counter, Melissa reacted as soon as Chris walked in, she was surprised how good he looked but couldn't pinpoint what had changed within him.
"What happened? I thought I won you 20 grand?"
"Not that, I was talking about… Forget it, did you dye your hair?"
She had to get up and walk towards him to check his new hair color, it was, although, not that noticeable, but a sister-like mother would even notice if he had his nail clipped.
"I didn't dye, I used a shampoo and washed all the dirt."
"It doesn't feel like dye. See how dirty you became? I used to rub you clean, but you insisted on taking a shower by yourself at 6. I would have…."
"Cut it out,It's inappropriate."
"I know, I was just joking, hehe."
After teasing him a little, she smiled brightly, then, seeing a new customer coming in, her teasing smile changed to a polite one as she went back to her seat.
