[Five hours ago...]
If there was ever an awkward moment, this would be it.
I was sitting peacefully, savoring my meal, when I decided to lower my mask slightly to eat. Little did I know that this simple act would disturb the atmosphere around me.
"...."
"...."
"Edward...?" Carla's voice came as a whisper, her eyes fixated on my altered appearance. With black hair and red eyes instead of my usual look, she had quickly noticed the change once I removed my mask.
"..." Caught off guard by Carla's discovery, I found myself at a loss for words.
"What's with the mask? And why do your hair and eyes look different?" Carla's expression was a mixture of confusion and curiosity.
"Well..." I hesitated, not expecting her to follow me.
[You revealed your hidden identity in such an awkward way.]
Shut up!
I didn't anticipate her presence!
