Hearing a familiar voice, Eduardo's first, inexplicable reaction is to feel like he's somehow been caught. It makes no sense, really. All he's doing today is looking, something he's been thinking about doing for months now as it is. He might not buy a ring here, or today at all. He doesn't know yet when he'll propose, and it's something he and Olive have talked about anyway, so it's not totally out of left field. Still, there's a moment when, startled, he draws in a sharp breath, already trying to think of some excuse for why he could be here.
The moment passes quickly, and he exhales again, nearly laughing, as he looks up at Chris. "That's no reason not to get a head start," he says. "Though now you've ruined the surprise, I don't know what I'll get you."
