Stone Circle Who cares about my emotions

As her throat was cleared, the sound had brought his attention back to her. He looked at the girl for a moment, thinking, but couldn’t come up with anything more to say. He had been sent to offer a gift, which is exactly what he had done. The boy hadn’t expected to run into his sister whilst doing a favour for the Spaniard, but he had and that was that. There was nothing more to be said between them, at least not now. Perhaps they’d be able to talk more in the future but, until then, he knew that it was time for him to return home.

Xan nodded as it was hinted at that he should leave. It was unusual, for he’d not gotten worked up over her words. He’d merely accepted them and said, “Yeah, until next time.” There would be a next time, right? Half of him believed that they would cross paths again, but the other half insisted that she’d leave. It was with a shake of his head that he’d turned away and took a few steps in the direction of the grove, only to stop and look back at her. “Bye, Desna,” the Inuk told her. Right after that, he’d turned back around and then he was gone.
