That got a reaction. It wasn't another smile, but it was certainly a reaction. The first comment got a slightly bemused expression onto his face (something like a slight head-tilt and tiny pursing of his lips), while the unnecessary little point of contact brought a very slight tension to his shoulders.
It was the sort of reaction he'd always had, even to involuntary touching. When his father absentmindedly reached over to smooth his hair, it was fine. When a stranger brushed passed him on the street, it felt invasive.
