"Why did you ignore me the entire evening?" Katelyn questioned Sage, finally catching up to him as he was about to retreat for the night. His sudden presence caused him to stop and attend to her first.
"I didn't ignore you. You never came to me," Sage stated. "You were busy gossiping with your friends, forgetting that I even exist. But I get it, in your eyes I am still unloyal and pathetic," he said, his frustration boiling over, fueled by the insults and gossip he'd unintentionally heard earlier in the day. "I am sleepy now, and I have to leave early in the morning."
Katelyn was perplexed by his immediate defensiveness. "What is this tone of yours? I thought you were busy talking to your sisters. I saw you with them," she muttered, feeling unjustly accused.
