"I understand..."
Lane turned around, not wanting sensei to see the disappointment in his eyes. His voice sounded so cold and distant, it sent chills down his spine. He reached out to his chest, placing his hand right on his heart, hearing the sounds it made, feeling it twitch, slightly pained by Reese's refusal. He knew he shouldn't beat himself up over every little thing, however, he couldn't help feeling sad.
"I... I'm off then, sensei. I won't be long" Lane uttered and left, without even looking back.
