Maurice had been looking out the car window for some time now.

Those candid words made Maurice’s eyes widen.

"Yeah, that’s what I was thinking.He’s the same age as me, and he’s always gotten sheltered by his family, which makes him ignorant of many things.So, I feel you should’ve tried to forgive him earlier."
