SHE knows very well who he is. Still, it doesn’t stop her from playing dumb; this is how she gauges people, measures their personalities. A bump to his shoulder, and she whirls around, hands ready to catch him. “I -- by God, I am so sorry.” It’s here that she feigns surprise, as if recognizing him for the first time. “Oh, I -- I am such an idiot, I -- I haven’t caused you harm, have I?”
