Capítulo 44: I think you two suit each other

"Max~!" 

Luke scrunched his nose up as he glanced at Cosette, only to see her jump and rush outside the convenience store. He stayed on the spot, exchanging looks with Maxen, who was standing outside and studying him. 

'He's not... her boyfriend, right?' he wondered, watching Cosette stand beside Maxen before he went outside. 

"What are you doing here?" asked Maxen, which Luke overheard as he was exiting the convenience store. 

"I told you I want to hang out with you..."

"But I won't be off until lunchtime."

"Then I'll wait."

Maxen let out a sharp exhale as he glanced at the person standing behind her. "Your friend..."

"Oh! Luke!" Cosette clapped as she turned her head around and smiled. "Luke, this is Maxen, my classmate. Maxen, this is Luke."

"Hey." Luke saluted slightly while he gazed at Maxen from head to toe. It was impossible for Cosette to like him, he thought.
