I Wish To Understand Him

No matter how many years he had known her or how much time he had spent serving her; Rafe always struggled to understand Lady Avilina, let alone saw through her.

Even now, he found it hard to understand what she was saying.

"Do you think my brother changed a lot, Rafe?"

He was snapped out of his stupor by the question and when Avilina saw his reaction, she slightly smiled and added, "You are the one who is the closest to him among the guild members. Don't you notice anything?"

Hearing out the Lady, Rafe promptly lowered his head. "I apologize, milady. Master never likes it when any members of the guild go to him without being summoned. I didn't get to spend much time around him and... " He paused, thinking twice, and continued, "Master is just like you, milady. He is never easy to read."

Not easy to read. These four words drew another smile from Avilina's lips.
