Kwan rubbed his sore hands, while Shone helped Forth to wipe the corner of his lip, which was bleed and torn after two punches from Kwan, which he didn't even try to avoid, even though he could have done it.
"I don't get it, he's either a robot or a statue. His skin is so tough, just like his heart," Kwan grumbles, examining his bruised knuckles.
Jock patted Kwan's shoulder, trying to calm his friend. However, he thought, if it weren't for being preceded by Kwan, maybe he too would immediately throw a fist at Forth, after hearing what he said.
"Tell me, Forth, why did you do it?" asked Shone in a flat tone. He knew that this charming young man named Javin had made Forth fall in love. His best friend clearly loves Javin, he even brought Javin to his house on his mother's important day.
