[He Knows] [Magic Words]
[He Knows]
Days before Lawrence and Lance's seventeen birthday.
"Hey, Lawrence, can I have a word for a moment?" Elliot asked on the other side of the phone.
"Sure."
Lawrence replied but couldn't help but be curious. Elliot rarely called him, and if he does, it was mostly because Zoe didn't pick up her phone.
Zoe . . .
He sighed, thinking about her.
After that night in the hotpot restaurant where they met Nicholas and Sophia, Zoe's been avoiding him.
Just one little slip of the tongue.
And it ruined everything.
That proved how fragile their complicated relationship was.
"Actually, it's about this girl named Maxine Bell."
Lawrence was surprised, and a smile blossomed on his face.
He and Maxine used to be so close when they were kids. Though he didn't have any news about her after that night on their thirteenth birthday, he still didn't forget he used to like her.
