~Gianna's POV
I turned fully toward the stall and started walking, not giving him space to continue whatever he wanted to say.
"Come on," I added.
He followed easily. When we got there, I placed the toys down carefully on the counter space beside me so I could have both hands free, and I leaned forward slightly, studying the setup like I had done with the claw machine earlier.
"You are doing that thing again," Matteo said behind me, his voice calm but clearly amused as he stood just a little off my shoulder.
I turned my head slightly, still keeping my eyes on the stall for a moment before fully looking at him.
"What thing?" I asked, even though I already had an idea.
He tilted his head a little, like he was studying me the way I had been studying the targets earlier.
"The serious face," he replied. "Like you are about to go into battle."
