An expression of surprise and confusion crosses Rey's face as she looks first at Kylo and then at the box he scoots across the table toward her. It takes a moment before she realizes what it is, but when she does her face splits into a delighted smile.
"Is this—did you get me a birthday present?"
She doesn't even open the box for a second or two, just holds it gently in her gloved hands like the very idea of receiving a gift tied with a ribbon is exciting. Which is it. But she realizes the wrapping is probably not usually the most thrilling part of all this, so finally she does nimbly untie the ribbon and open the box. Almost immediately upon revealing the robe inside, the sunlight brightens around her to the point where the shiny bits of fabric are impossible to miss, and Rey wastes no time ripping off her gloves and pulling the garment gingerly out of the box to admire it.
She does unfortunately forget to verbally respond, but the sparkling fabric will hopefully speak for itself regarding her feelings about it.
