[Right in the heart.]

There are some repairs on the ship that need my attention. I'm sorry, Elize. [He wants to promise this won't happen again, but he can't. He never knows.]

I asked Jove to spend time with you in my stead. She's much better at telling stories.

[princessia]

I understand! Repairs are important.

[ He doesn't need to apologize. She was really looking forward to spending time with him today, but she's trying not to be selfish. ]

Oh. Okay... [ She likes Jove, but still, she wants Cullen to be with them. ] We should spend time together, all three of us next time. When you're not busy.

[serves]

As soon as I'm able, I'm yours. We'll do anything you'd like.

[He feels awful, and it's not just the withdrawal. Letting her down is difficult, even if it's for the best.]

[princessia]

Yes...

I-I'll... umm... I'll let you do what you need to do with those repairs. [ She wants to keep talking to him, but she shouldn't keep him on the line much longer. He's busy... ]

So, you take care! [ Attempting to hide disappointment and trying to sound tough. ]

[serves]

Same to you, Elize. I'll call you as soon as I'm [not sweating, trembling, or feeling like his stomach is about to exit his body] free. Have fun with Jove.

[princessia]

Yes. I will.

[ Time to go pout after she ends this call. ]
