Cassidy was eighteen-year old at the time Maruschca was able to understand everything.
Ever since she saw that picture of his grandson, not even its blurriness and his disguise could keep her from putting the pieces together. As she continued to learn more about their adventures together - about how they bonded together and that it all happened during the summer she stopped visiting the orphanage, she remembered that he was also showing interest in a girl around that time.
While Cassidy may have fulfilled her promise to keep his intention for his visits as a secret, Maruschca saw through the fact that he was indeed paying visits to that orphanage just like her.
"He used to look so grumpy and brooding, but even then, he was kind and generous! He would buy me ice cream and play with me! He would also walk me back home from school!"
Since bringing that photograph, Cassidy kept rambling about that guy for hours straight every time she visited the hospital.
