"It's not—" She crossed her arms even tighter over her chest, trying to hide her breasts. "It's the house style, okay? I didn't choose to walk around half-naked. They gave me this and told me to wear it. Period."

"You don't need to. Your face is doing all the talking."
He stood up and approached her without rushing, keeping a reasonable distance, close enough to speak quietly, far enough not to overwhelm her even more.
"Rei."
"What?!"
"Relax for two seconds."
