Maxen stared at Asher's genuine smile, chuckling airily. "I didn't expect such a simple question."

"Haha…" Maxen shook his head before his eyes fell on Cosette's portrait. "How I am holding up, huh? Well… I am still alive, as you can see."

His eyelids dropped as his eyes glinted with bitterness and sadness. "Though there were times I wished I wasn't. Losing her is something I never thought I could bear, but I have to, and that made it even harder for me to open my eyes every single morning."
