Dean and Claire were walking side by side towards the fake store, where they could enter into the Underground Mansion.
The young man kept quiet all the way towards that place. He wasn't willing to say a single word, and couldn't even if he wanted to; he wasn't able to come up with anything to talk about with Claire. The latter even tried to start a conversation but Dean was always straightforward in his responses.
'This boy won't talk about his problems with me, huh? Even after all this time together, why can't he trust me? Even after everything I did to him...', she closed her eyes for a brief moment, brushing off her inner feelings and trying to concentrate. She needed to work, after all. She was chosen as Silver's mentor for a reason, and it was to tag along with him in his missions and help him with anything he needed.
'The problem is that I never did these things because of my position in the Black Market as a mentor. I did because...', she clenched her fists.
