Max's POV
When I met Laura in the garden for training, the first thing I asked was why her mother was behaving unusually.
She started stammering, as if she did something wrong. She just asked me if I was uncomfortable with that.
" It is not that I am uncomfortable. I really like that. She is behaving the same way my mother used to be and I really like that. I am just curious, nothing else. ", I answered her, honestly.
" To tell you the truth, uh.... When you were.. I am saying that when you.... ", she stammered again.
Why was I finding her stammering cute? It was as if she was feeling that she did something wrong and was now forced to confess it. I was sure that the reason for that change was because I might have said something when I was drunk, the day before so, why was she feeling guilty? I thought.
