Caelus and Rin were in a bad mood. It was something that came across clearly, even when they were mad and keeping their distance.
Shuu did not want to assume things, but he also did not want the kids to feel like they could not talk to him about things. So he decided to be brave and ask the question first.
"Is something bothering you both? You can tell me about it."
Shuu assured the kids and at first, they both did not say anything.
Just when he thought he should try again, Rin spoke up first, surprising Shuu.
"You are not going to help this person. You are going to come back with us. You can leave this bastard to Kaiden."
"Rin, you should not be saying these words."
Shuu was so shocked by Rin's strong language that he lost his thoughts for a moment and blurted these words out. He had not meant to say all this, but the words had left his mouth anyway.
