Luna looked at Maximus when he said that he is Shawn's friend. Why did he not bring up to her about that? She thought that Maximus and Shawn are strangers.
"You are friends with Shawn?"
"Yes" he sighed "and I am sorry for not telling you about Shawn. I do not have any intention to meddle, but I cannot stand looking at you, crying for the man who cannot even look at you. Believe me, if I said that I am interested in you. I do not want to lie nor keep secrets from you. Please do not close your heart... for me", he then looked at his front.
Luna felt warm in her heart. She was moved because of Maximus. They were strangers, yet the man already cared about her. His family even welcomed her at his house and celebrated her success in passing the board exam. They treated her like one of them. She felt like she had a family.
