Sofia paused near the exit to the house, stopping at the corner that turned into the hallway which would lead her outside, keeping an eye on Vincenzo as he walked towards the main door. Her heart pounded in her chest as she looked around. Okay, no one was there to look at her. And if anyone did, she would just act like she had dropped something and was looking for it.
She focused her gaze back on Vincenzo. Much to her surprise, he stopped a few feet away from the main door and turned to the right, tapping at something on the wall.
A door opened.
What the hell? There was a secret room in this house! Was that where he had been disappearing off to all this time that he had supposedly been busy?
Sofia itched to run to him and ask him all about it but she knew she couldn't do that.
So she waited until he had disappeared into the secret room before making a move.
