Alex looked at Grace confusedly, Her eyes were red from crying as she is pitiful like an injured animal staring at him.
Seeing her like this he did not understand what happened to her, He was sure his words were not going to have this big effect on her after all he always used to talk like this, It's nothing new.
So he was not sure what was happening to her. He didn't waste time thinking of reason and decided to directly ask her like a normal person.
"Huh!? What happen Grac-"
"Don't call me Grace, Use what you used before."
So he asked but before he finished his sentence, Grace cut him off mid-sentence as the anxiety on her face increased visible to naked eyes.
This time he had to think of it. There was no way to ask her again, So the hamster in his head started running and he came up with a pretty reasonable reason.
"Cute face..?"
