Ch 45: Someone is Listening in [pt1]

“Maya, are you alright? It must have been quite a shock to you to see your father die like this.”

“Maya, don’t be sad. I am sure everything will be alright soon.”

“Maya-”

Yohan watched as Maya dodged the questions she was being asked by the people. Maya’s tears were falling down her face and her expression looked sad but she was anything but sad right now.

The uncomfortable look on Maya’s face was likely a mask she had put on to fool the world. And it was not like Maya was close enough with anyone to have her words not be trusted.

“I…am sad that my father passed away but I will recover with time. I am sure that time will heal my wounds and give me the strength to keep on living.”

Yohan turned away from Maya once he was satisfied with her performance. People were eating out of her hands, not even questioning her acting skills. Maybe Yohan should have Maya try out for acting as well since she had the skills to carry through.
