To a certain extent, maya showing fear for MJ even after changing herself makes sense, but to a larger extent I find maya's show of fear for MJ right in front of MJ and his gang all the time too obvious and over-exaggerated. Maya should know MJ enough by now to know that fear and weakness in someone would only make MJ more confident and him preying on that person. By showing so much obvious fear in front of him, she's actually fueling his ego and strength, which I find odd as maya should know and understand this about MJ by now. That's why I hope she is only pretending to show fear for him in such an obvious manner to play off of his overconfidence and ego, so that he thinks she's still the easy prey manvi and underestimates her.
