Hailey felt awkward. She hadn't meant to do it. She had only wanted to avoid Jonah, but instead, she had crashed right into his arms.
As she looked at his handsome face, memories from last night flooded her mind like a tidal wave. He had pinned her down and kissed her, calling her "Joanne".
Hailey quickly reached out and pushed Jonah away, taking two steps back herself.
She felt extremely uncomfortable and stammered, "Sorry."
As Jonah looked at her flushed face and awkwardness, he smiled and said, "It's fine. It's no big deal. Why are you so nervous?"
Hailey was silent.
After all, it made sense. They had already broken up. She was the one still flustered, while he had clearly moved on and started a new life. His indifference toward her said it all—he was over her.
Hailey felt pathetic. She should be as confident as Jonah.
With Aileen around, there was no reason for him and her to avoid each other.
Hailey adjusted her mindset. "Sorry."
Jonah grabbed a bowl and a spoon. "Let's eat."
Aileen pulled Hailey down to sit beside her. "Hailey, come eat."
Hailey nodded. "Okay."
Jonah checked Aileen's temperature. She still had a slight fever. "This fever keeps coming back. I'll take care of you for the next few days."
Aileen nodded happily. "Okay."
Hailey figured that with Jonah around, there wasn't much need for her to stay. "Aileen, since your brother's here to look after you, I'll head home."
It was just too awkward being in the same room as Jonah.

I wonder why those who fall in love never seem to last in this story. You completely drifted away from the main characters, jumped to new ones, and got stuck there....
