Markus didn't have to wait long for his drink to be refilled, but he would take the time to watch the other man. He wondered if Max felt as awkward as he did. It was still strange for Markus to think about how much of his sister's life had been hidden from him. It was true that Markus had his own secrets as well, part of his job, of course, but this life of hers just felt like too much to keep from him.
Markus heard the man chuckle. He took a moment, however, before responding. “No, actually, while she didn't really go into details, I had actually gotten the feeling she might have wanted more than friendship,” he said, looking through the corner of his eye. “She said you were fun, hot, a bit uptight, I guess...” Markus started before realizing what he was saying. “But, nothing terrible. I could tell she liked you; trust me, she wasn't one to hide when she was displeased.”
Markus had more questions for the man, as well as the notes in his jacket pocket. He wanted to offer the letters to Max. It was possible that if the other man knew Victoria's life here, then there was something that would stand out. But before Markus took that step, he wanted to trust the man. Plus, he did not doubt that his words wouldn't be easy to hear, and he would be lying if he said he didn't want to know more about his sister.
