Max watched the match of Asiva vs Sebastian in silence, his eyes were slightly moist and his ego felt a little bruised.
' I wonder what big brother will think of me? ' Max wondered as he balled his fists.
For Max, the most important thing in the tournament was to showcase to his brother how strong he had become. He just wanted to make him proud.
Max was happy for Sebastian, his friend truly deserved to win, but Max could not resolve the knot in his heart that maybe, maybe if he did not give up control he could have pulled it off.
As Max saw Asiva win easily over Sebastian, his mood improved considerably as his heart warmed up to see her shine like this on the grand stage.
While others did not know what Asiva went through on a day-to-day basis, Max knew very well that her struggles to improve were no less compared to his.
