If he had wanted to reveal his thoughts to Nixsi, He would have had no trouble doing so earlier. But his evasive answer meant just that. To evade the question at hand. His thoughts were his alone.

"I suppose.." He murmured in answer to he reply, trying to appear agreeable for the time being. His voice appeared to be calm, but the turmoil of feelings inside, had not yet dissapeared.

While he could keep up a pretense, Kai wan't even certain of his feelings as of yet, besides the grim fear that gripped him. While he longed to escape from his problems, His heart and conscience had made the decision to stay and help to resolve this conflict.. particularly when he was the cause of it.
