After her rebirth by Cici

Chapter 304 It's Normal Not to Remember

Maximilian shrugged. "I wasn't thinking about anything. What did you just say?"

Katniss gave him a serious look. "Maximilian, come on. You're totally lying. You were definitely thinking about something. Is it something you don't wanna tell me?"

Maximilian ruffled her hair playfully. "Why do you always think about random stuff? I was just listening to you talk about how close they are and wondering what you mean by 'close.""

He was worried Katniss might get the wrong idea, so he quickly explained what was on his mind.

Katniss suddenly got it. "You were thinking about something so simple for so long?" Maximilian frowned a bit. "Simple?"

He knew he wasn't great at picking up on people's emotions. It was something he'd been aware of since he was a kid. But he never thought it was a big deal.

"Of course it's simple. Even though they bicker, you can tell they're familiar with each other. They're in sync, which makes the atmosphere feel right."

"Okay." Maximilian still didn't quite get it, but he nodded anyway.

Seeing his serious expression, Katniss knew he probably didn't understand. She thought about Maximilian's condition and sighed.

Maybe Maximilian wanted to understand, but his condition made it tough for him.

Maximilian asked, "Why'd you just sigh?"

Katniss suddenly leaned closer and asked, "Maximilian, have you felt loved recently?"

She remembered Jesse saying Maximilian lacked love and needed to feel more of it. She had been trying hard to make him feel loved, but she wasn't sure if he had noticed.

Maximilian froze for a moment, then smiled slightly. "Are you confessing to me?" Katniss was taken aback. "What?"
