Sophia and Matthew were very quiet while waiting for Zhen-Zhen and Tristan who were still talking backstage. Sophia felt a little bit awkward with Matthew.
After everything that happened, she still felt shy toward Matthew. She didn't know how she would talk to him without being embarrassed.
Matthew did his best to protect her. He even pretended to be her boyfriend in front of Marcus and his friends just to maintain her woman's pride. She felt grateful for that.
However, she couldn't help but feel ashamed about herself. Matthew saw her in that state wherein she and Marcus were sharing a very intimate moment. Whenever she would remember that she had the urge to hide from Matthew.
Matthew, on the other hand, didn't know how to start a conversation with Sophia. He didn't know if Sophia felt uncomfortable in his presence just because he pretended to be her boyfriend.
He could feel her uneasiness and it seemed like she was avoiding him.
