He laughed, shaking his head. Justine had a way of making him look at the world in a different light every time they spoke, and there was something so exciting about that. So easliy she had made him rethink the value of the term 'brain fart', a term he used often, that he wondered how else she could challenge his preconceptions.

He ran a hand to his face at her comment about his youth. In all honesty, he had opted not to mention Justine's aging earlier because he figured the subject would be upsetting for her. Now that she had brought it up, he felt a little less worried about hurting her feelings by accidentally mentioning it. "My? Pfft, Justine, that stuff is hardly noticable. You're beautiful." He said quickly, shaking his head and smiling at Justine. "And maybe I've just aged very well!" He added with a chuckle.

Justine tilted her head in that curious, questioning way of hers as Andrew explained that he himself, had no idea why he had used that particular idiom. She had obviously missed something here, something that was integral, because the conversation, which had been running smoothly had somewhat stopped awkwardly at her question.
"I'm sorry, 'ave I said some-zing vrong?" Justine asked, though the boy was laughing at the mishap, she couldn't help worrying that she might have caused him some unease.

"Non, non, it is noticeable, but I am just glad zat it is not as bad as some of zee other children," Justine said, with a light smile, shaking her head at the boy's very kind compliment, but really she couldn't accept it this time, because this newly aged Justine was not beautiful. "Maybe, ether vay, you are lucky," Justine added with a soft laugh.
