"That's who I think Jayce is."
"That's...a lot deeper than I thought you were going to say," Rose finally said after processing Edward's answer.
His solemn expression vanished and was replaced by his usual playful one.
"Maybe I'm just overthinking it," He said, looking away. "Don't take it too seriously."
Even if he said that, there was no way she would forget. The more she thought about what he said, the more it made sense to her, at least some of it.
'Afraid that if someone got too close, it would only result in his body being sliced open even more,' Rose repeated what Edward told her in her mind.
It would explain why Jayce had such an unfriendly and bitter attitude. After losing those who were close to him, he shut himself away from everyone else.
The only person she could think of who was somewhat close to him was Yuko and after seeing what his sister looked like, it made sense.
