She smiled.  "No, no.  I'm not selling them to you.  I don't dance anymore, not really.  I'm giving them to you as a GIFT, Akihiro.  Someone with your beauty and talent should wear them," she said, and undid the clasps, looping them carefully around Aki's wrists.  "And don't worry about what they cost me.  I get gifts like this all the time from my guests, and they usually go to my girls anyway," she said, and then, again, testing things, leaned in and kissed Aki softly, this time more than a peck, though.  Her lips stayed against Mana's for a good minute before she pulled back.  "And they make you even more beautiful," she said in a dusky voice.
