Somewhat, Haley was glad that he was around. There were a few things she wished to discuss with him. Specifically, she wanted to talk to him about her leaving arrangement.
She could not stay here forever. Of course, she would need a place of her own. But she would need help. But she would discuss that later when Imelda left.
She did not want her to overhear their conversation. As far as the cook was concerned, she was Mike's cousin who was visiting him. She still could not trust anyone else with her secrets.
"I see that you are doing well with your cooking lesson. I can smell it all over the yard." Mike moved toward the pot and sniffed the smoke coming from it. "The smell alone is already mouthwatering."
"I only helped Imelda." She said, but somehow, she knew she could recreate the dish. Maybe, in time, she could put some twist of her own to it.
"You still did most of the job," Imelda said as she tapped her hand to praise her.
