up as she listened to him speak - unable to mask the obnoxiously loud
smacking, rather, it was as if she didn’t care but truly it was just completely
over her head that such a noise could be annoying. “hm.. that’s true, i don’t

Though he wasn’t busy, he had half a mind to just say he was in order to avoid further interaction; still, he was a bit curious as to what she wanted from him. It probably wouldn’t kill him to try. “Sure? Do you need help with something?” Maybe she was expecting a large package and didn’t want to carry it herself.
