Hailey shook her head. “Not yet.”

Raphael walked over to the fridge, opened it, and glanced at the ingredients. After a moment, he grabbed some vegetables and two eggs. “Do you have any pasta? I haven’t eaten either, so I’ll cook for you.”

Hailey sensed it and lowered her gaze, unwilling to meet his eyes.

After a long pause, Raphael sighed softly, then reached up and gently ruffled her hair. “I’m going on a business trip
