She looked at Lith, hoping for a way out.

"Please?" He rerepeated and his sad eyes became the final nail in the coffin of her determination.

"Thanks, you too." Solus felt the awkwardness in Kamila's voice, yet her grip was firm and so was her gaze.

For a moment, Solus felt like a boxer studying her opponent on the ring right before the sound of the gong. Then, Kamila let go of her hand, put on her coat, and walked out the door quickly followed by Lith.
