Give me heads

"What are your grandparents like?" 

Cosette turned her head to her side where Maxen was. He was lying on his side, resting his jaw on the bottom of his palm, eyes on her. She snuck into his room again and had been idling on the bed with him.

"My grandparents, huh?" she peeled her eyes away from him to the ceiling. "They are…"

In her life, Cosette only saw them a few times as a child. The reason was that they migrated abroad and some issues they had with Conrad… or rather, with her mom. The scar her mom left in Conrad was something Cosette didn't understand from then until now, but she knew it had something to do with that. 

The only time she could remember about her grandparents was when she was already in the hospital, dying, and forgetting everything, including herself.
