Трудно. Still does not sound easy... I am sorry you had to do that.
[rather than pull away, he just... tenses up, and exhales, as if to stop himself from jerking his hand away.]
There's no point dwelling on it.

...I'd rather you hadn't had to die for the opportunity.

no subject
...Right.
[but it was...... interesting. learning about anya.]
You can stay in here. [as if she needs his permission??] I'm going to go do something.
[he moves to get up from the seat, nodding to her.]
I'll see you around.
