"Really!" Selena's curiosity grew. "So, what is it?"

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.

Just then, Aveline's phone rang. She looked at the screen and saw it was a call from Zachary.

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

Zachary's gentle voice came through. "Aveline, how have you been lately?"

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?" Surprised, Aveline quickly suggested, "If you don't mind, why not come over to my place for dinner? You can try my cooking."

Zachary agreed, "Sounds great."
