What, Kilorn?’ I sigh. ‘What,’ he echoes, shaking his head. After a long second, something snaps in him. ‘I know you don’t feel the same way I do. About us.’ I’m seized by the urge to smash my head against a rock. Us. It feels stupid to talk about, a foolish waste of time and energy. But more than that, it’s embarrassing and uncomfortable. My cheeks flame red. This is not a conversation I ever wanted to have with him.
