"She didn't get a wink of sleep the whole night," Raphael spoke behind him. "After you left, I'd gone to sleep two hours later and returned at midnight to find her still working. To be honest, I was shocked to the teeth."
He crossed his hands behind his back. "I've never seen someone so determined, boss. So resilient. If I hadn't watched her myself, I'd have believed she used some kind of magic. She's-" he searched for the right words. "-Something else." Kage didn't need to doubt that she hadn't slept at all. The heaviness and dark circles under her eyes told him it was the truth. One could easily think she hadn't slept for weeks. Something shifted in his chest - something dark and dangerous.

But don't worry, I'll let him know you're done and he'll check it out when he can." Raphael said. Sylvie wasn't so pleased. "Maybe, I can wait for him. When he's free, we can both-"

with the deadline and didn't use any cheat method. What is left is for him to check out the dress to be sure you did the right thing," Raphael explained, offering a smile that looked rather forced.
But Sylvie still wasn't cool with it. She had been hoping Kage would check it out as soon as she was done and assure her that they had a deal.
