An awkward silence reigned in the room.
Max and Laura sat back to back, with the former dressed in his undergarments.
Laura seemed to be slightly embarrassed with her cheeks being slightly reddish as she tried to focus on one thing in the room but unfortunately, her eyes kept wandering.
Most likely an unconscious attempt to get rid of the image in her mind, of course, it wasn't that easy.
Max coughed awkwardly while rubbing his upper lip. There was no way to escape their current situation without something weird happening and as he remained silent, he delved into his thoughts to figure out the least weird way to end the awkwardness in the air.
Just then, Laura muttered. "… At least it was kind of big."
And there it was!
"What..." Max pretended to not hear to not continue the conversation.
Unfortunately, Laura misread his intent. "your… ahem, tail?"
"Shut up," Max remarked with his eyes closed.
"I'm being serious…"
"Please stop."
"…Understood."
