Aveline gave a playful smile. "That's a secret for now. I'll tell you once it's done."

"Hmph, even keeping it from me." Selena huffed and turned away.

Aveline continued humming as she prepared dinner.

When the delicious dishes were finally served, Selena eagerly came back over.

"Hello, Zach," Aveline answered, her voice carrying a hint of a smile.

Aveline smiled. "Pretty good. How about you? Is the orphanage running smoothly?"

Zachary replied, "It's going okay. Not as difficult as I imagined, but not easy either. I'm in Cloudflare City now, but I'm heading back tomorrow. Are you free to meet up for a meal?"

Zachary agreed, "Sounds great."
