"H-How rude and insensitive of you!" Lotus folded her arms across her chest tightly and frowned at Benjamin, her golden eyes flashing with indignation. "I understand completely that I have seen quite a lot of moons pass by over the course of my long life, and I do not deny that I am the oldest person in this village. But mistaking my age for immortality? That is essentially the same as calling me an old, ancient, and decrepit woman who is barely clinging to life!"
In response, Benjamin shook his body slightly, his shoulders trembling and his face contorting.
Then he began to tear up, his blue eyes growing wet and shiny with moisture. "I'm... I'm sorryyyyyy!! I'm sorry for calling you an old lady and implying that you were ancient and decrepit, mummy!!"
