Laura's POV
We were having dinner but I was not able to take my eyes off Max. I wanted to wait for him to prepare himself before telling him and wanted to give him time for that but, it was uncomfortable for me. Even after knowing that he was lying to me, I kept on trying to pretend that I had no idea.
That made the mood between us very uncomfortable which did not go unnoticed by others.
" Hey Laura, did you argue with Max? ", Eliza whispered to me.
" Do you think that is even possible? He just woke up and came down. Also, I was with you, all the time. ", I said, getting annoyed at that stupid question.
" Calm down. I know that but then why are you both avoiding each other's eye contact? ", she asked.
" No, we are not. "
" What are you both talking about, at the dinner table? Finish your food first. ", Mom said, scolding us.
" Yes. ", we both said in unison.
After dinner, without waiting for others, I got up.
