Completely Honest

Maxen's chest rumbled, and eventually, he released a hearty laugh, squeezing Olivia's knees. He couldn't believe such a nasty word would come out from a beautiful mouth.

Beside him, Olivia raised an eyebrow at him that his laugh was cut short. Afternoon sun cast a light on her eyes and he saw a swirl of accusations dance in it.

"I haven't done that," he came clean. Little did he know it doubled the enormous question mark floating above Olivia's head.

"I didn't ask you if you did. Why do you sound so guilty?" He saw her scrunch her nose, a sign that the gears in her head were busy painting scenarios in it, scenarios that really never happened.

"Because your eyes are accusing me. And for the record, it would be nice if we try that. It'll be the first for us both. Wanna try?"

"Wanna die?"

Maxen choked on his saliva, letting out another laugh, infecting Olivia and Uncle Jin in the car.

"If it'll send me to heaven, why not?"
