"On one hand, I would rather stay back," Norbert replied, turning his eyes towards the fence. He then stared at the zombies for a bit, only for a sudden bout of shame and anxiety to fill his face. "For many reasons," he added.
His ambiguous words did a poor job at hiding the real reason from Mathew, though.
'It can't be comfortable to lead a man so that he can fuck his sister,' Mathew thought, hiding his own awkwardness behind a stupid grin.
"But on the other hand..." Norbert muttered.
His gaze sharpened. His fingers curled up to form fists. Norbert then raised his eyes and looked at Mathew's face.
"I can't really be away either, can I?"
Mathew looked at the officer.
He then took a deep breath and swallowed his saliva.
'It's just a normal guy with a bit more experience than me,' Mathew thought, taking a moment to calm his agitation down. 'Not just some random NPC in some stupid game.'
