Sells all kinds of hardware, but lots of flashlights and batteries.

Kitty walked into the hardware store, needing another flashlight. She used them up a lot, since she liked to take frequent walks around October. Then again, so did Sadie and Alexander. Kitty was buying flashlights for them too.
Milo walked into the hardware store and looked around. There wasn't much other then flashlights and batteries, and although Milo didn't need them desperately, it was good to stay stocked up. Especially in this city
Kitty grabbed a packet of batteries and turned around quickly, bumping into Milo. "Aah!" she exclaimed, pushing him away and looking startled. "I, uh, um, er..." she stuttered. Should she apologize for bumping into him and pushing him? It had been an accident, obviously.
Milo wasn't looking where he was going as well, and felt someone crash into him, "Sorry!" he said out of reflex, He stumbling slightly when she pushed him
"Oh, uh, yeah...ditto!" Kitty said nervously. She really wasn't sure what to say, she felt very embarrassed. "I, um was getting flashlights and I turned around and you were there and all the space between us disappeared but I didn't realize, and, well, not all the space, but, uh..." She rambled.
Milo smiled and laughed lightly at her rambling, "Yeah, I was there." he replied. "I'm Milo." he said, sticking her hand out to shake
"Kitty?" Kitty said, as though it was a question. She took his hand and shook it awkwardly. Her cheeks were still red. She wasn't sure why he was introducing himself. Maybe that was the normal thing to do in this kind of situation?
"Nice to meet you Kitty." Milo smiled. He was glad that he could talk to her, it has been a while since he had spent some time with anyone. Even if it was only going to be for a few minutes, he would take it.
"Uh, yeah, too you! I mean, you too! Soooo, what are you looking for here? I mean I'm not an employee but I'm here tons so I could help! Or something!" Kitty said.
Milo laughed, "I'm just here browsing, I guess. Just to see if there's anything good," he replied. He liked her already, she was kinda a mess with her words, but he found it funny
"Oh, uh-huh. Like flashlights? There's lots of different kinds of flashlights. And barrettes. Batteries." Kitty said. "Lots of great hardware store things!" Why was she still being awkward? Kitty didn't know. She couldn't help it.
"Flash lights and batteries are good." Milo smiled, " And yes, lots of hardware things." he agreed. He wasn't in desperate need of anything, but you never know what you could find here
"Right. Always need more flashlights. Thanks to the dark. It's a waste of batteries, really!" Kitty exclaimed. "And am I being funny right now, because you're smiling a lot?"
