Chapter 16 ~ Karma and Consequences
Musing with her cup in one hand, the woman observed Skye's haggard look.
"He looks like he's about to pass out at any given time" she mused while observing him a bit more before speaking.
"You should take time to push aside things that are trifling towards you" the woman noted while continuing to watch him.
