As he spoke, he noticed Kesuk seemed to be growing more and more agitated. She pulled back and shot him a glare, obviously offended at something. His heart sank. 'Oh shit, what did I say,' he asked himself. He'd thought he was saying all the right things, but somehow, he'd managed to turn the conversation around again. Now they were worse off than when they started.

As he'd suspected, Kesuk did not like the idea of letting him come along on her outrider missions. "I just thought it'd be a fun way to spend time together," he tried to explain. This was partly the truth. It was also true that he wanted to go along to make sure she'd be safe. He felt his motives were justified, she'd almost drowned the day he met her for crying out loud.

He'd meant that last line as a joke to lighten the mood, but it backfired in a bad way. Kesuk unleashed a barrage of sarcastic jeers on him. Her words stung like angry wasps, but Koda took it all silently, a hard look on his face. When it was over, he spoke calmly. "I cannot talk to you if you're going to act like that," he said sternly. Even if he was in the wrong here, he wasn't going to sit there and let her make fun of him. He would give her one chance to smarten up, but if she couldn't continue the conversation like an adult he'd get up and leave until she could.
