He was sure that he hadn't imagined their animosity, given how much time he was taking away from their rightful patient and his need to heal.] And -- I hope -- that time will allow you to contemplate your emotions, and your cognitive reaction to your feelings. After all... I am confident that you have feelings, Sai.
[As Chilton made his way to the opened door, he threw back a look. It wasn't one forged in pity, but it was reactive. He searched for any reaction from Sai's face, anything that he could mirror in response.]
I only want what is healthiest for you. Mentally speaking. [A beat, and he offered a grin.] You know how to contact me.
