As soon as Barnes saw me, he jumped up from his seat with a big smile. Roman stayed seated, relaxed.

He gave a small nod in response.
“Well, I’m sorry I ditched you and left you with this guy,” Barnes added, gesturing toward Roman.
I shot him a pointed look, and Roman immediately burst out laughing at the exchange.
