Luan pressed his lips together, guilt flashing across his face because back then… he really had wanted to kill her without hesitation.
"It was because I thought you were the evil Roxanna," he said softly. He turned to look at her, his gaze serious. "But I promise… I won't scare you like that again."
Roxanna let out a small chuckle. "I know. I'm just remembering the past." She lifted her head, looking around at the forest.
"But it still feels a little strange," she added softly.
Luan raised a brow. "What's strange?"
Roxanna fell silent for a moment before saying, "I never even said that I was a different person, but… from the moment I came here, you all treated me well."
For some reason, she felt Luan's hand turn a little cold in hers, as if he had suddenly become nervous.
After a short pause, he said, "We just… felt that you weren't the same because the 'real' Roxanna would never apologize to Azul… or save him."
