[As she patiently waits for his answer, there's almost a flash of her getting fed up with his hesitance. Yet as soon as he seems to acquiesce, she softens, relieved.
Without saying anything (what is there to say yet? "OK"?), she smoothly makes her way in now that he's stepped aside. She finds her perch on the far side of the couch so he won't have to risk bumping into her unworthy glowing parasitic worthless self if he joins her there. Aw. How considerate. Also how ridiculously overoptimistic. Her idea is that now that she's placed the shoebox on the middle of a coffee table in front of the couch, he will be drawn there.
Either way, presumably before he moves anywhere (at least he isn't kneejerking around much, this is progress), she reaches forward with one hand to remove the box's lid, setting it down alongside on the table. The boots inside are similar to what he asked for though not exactly the same: Most notably the heels are a solid half-inch shorter, though the ankles a quarter-inch higher to compensate. Harder to tell - they pretty much look black without direct illumination, but with light like the glow cast by Kanaya's hands, it's possible to see the shade is in fact a deep violet.
Once she's removed the lid she sits back with her hands folded in her lap.]
