Kairav listened intently, his mind still reeling from the shock of Skai's presence. He couldn't shake the feeling that something was amiss, that there was more to her return than met the eye.
Kairav's eyes drifted back to Skai, who seemed engrossed in the discussion, her expression attentive and focused. He squinted, trying to read her true expression and her body language.
She seemed at ease, but he detected a hint of tension in her shoulders, a subtle tightness in her jaw. He knew she was hiding something, and it only added to the unease growing inside him.
Skai, on the other hand, was acutely aware of Kairav's gaze. She could feel his eyes on her, sense the wariness from him.
She had expected him to be surprised, but the hint of suspicion in his eyes was unsettling.
