Hidden Discussion

As both Harold and Noah entered the secret passage, trying to find the other three boys and kill the monster that seemed to have taken the form of their physics teacher, Alphonso and Max changed their course and took a detour, diverting from the scent trail, fearing a trap.

"I did say that we'd ditch the scent trail because the monster might be attempting to bait us with Gerald, but god damn… This alternate route is simply too tight for people!" Alphonso groaned with annoyance as he moved through the thin pathway, and Max shook his head. "It's not as thin as you're making it out to be. Maybe you should stop eating too much and start working out."

"Hey! I'm not that fat, okay?" Alphonso shrugged his shoulders and spoke with annoyance in his tone, clearly bothered by Max's words. "I just have a bit of a chubby stomach."
