"Just do it, just knock." Salecia thought as she approached Christopher's door.

Salecia stepped back and waited for a response.
"One second, I'm coming." Christopher yelled from inside his house.
He opened the door and smiled as soon as soon as he saw Salecia's face.
"Hey stranger." He said as he leaned against the doorframe.
"Hey Q." Salecia said while smiling broadly at him with her hands behind her back, rocking forward and backwards like a small child in a way that Christopher found cute.

"Hey, a pinkie promise the most legitimate foundation of trust there is." Christopher said with a pout.
"Fine." Salecia said as she sighed with defeat. "I pinkie promise." She said as they interlocked their pinkies.
