Ivan bit back the words he wanted to say, staring at the orange that was being handed to him. For a moment, he hesitated whether to take it or not.

Seeing that he wasn't taking it, Rachel put the peeled orange on the table in front of him. Then, she peeled another orange for herself, slowly putting it into her mouth.
