Helanie:
The way Charlotte said that, and the way Maximus awkwardly looked away with his eyes closed and fists clenched, I realized she was telling the truth. And even she looked like she had seen a ghost. The anxious body language, the blinking of her eyes, and the way she was nervously fidgeting with her fingers while watching Maximus's face to say something, it said it all. She felt it, and he did too. And I guess she wanted him to confirm.
"Maximus, what is she saying?" I asked very softly, not trying to judge him. It wouldn't be their fault.
