"I've forgiven you, so let's put an end to this conversation, okay?" Damien said firmly, trying to calm Theo down.
"Yes, I understand... I'm really sorry... I just couldn't hold back, thinking it might be the last time..." Theo murmured, his voice filled with regret.
Damien could tell that no matter what he said, Theo would continue to apologize endlessly. It seemed better to just let him get it out of his system. But something about Theo's words piqued Damien's curiosity.
"Wait, what do you mean 'the last time'?" he asked.
Theo hesitated, looking flustered. "Oh... um... well, you see... as centaurs, we, uh... as you've seen... we're quite a bit larger than humans... in certain areas..."
Larger. Yeah, Damien couldn't deny that. Theo's size was very impressive, to say the least—comparable to an actual horse. As Damien nodded in understanding, Theo's face fell, clearly distressed.
