"I don't bite."   Robert said quietly when Kira finally came over and sat at the table with him.  "It's going to be hard to hold a conversation if we have to talk across the table."    He tried to be gentle about it but he wasn't sure how easy that was going to be.    He'd notice Kira before at school but hadn't the chance to chat with her.   Maybe he could get her to come out of her bubble a little bit and socialize with him.
