The day we left you told me Beckett asked to see you.” She asks.I smile. “He does not remember me, but he still finds me attractive. I don’t know how to explain it, but he seems so different, he is so shy it’s cute. He blushes a lot. He is staying at his parents’ place right now, his mother is taking care of him. He asks a lot of questions about what we have done and my past and what I know about him. It was kind of weird.
