"No, I actually got here yesterday..." William paused, then quickly corrected himself, “I took the evening flight and stayed at the hotel overnight."

"Oh..."

"Why do you ask, Sophie?"

"I noticed you didn't have any luggage, so I figured you hadn't just arrived today.”

"...Sophie, you're pretty sharp."
