“I said I’m fine.” Jo stumbled forward but still shook
her head when the other tried to assist her. “You shouldn’t
be here.”

_{It was the only moment some of his humanity broke through. A false
moment, a moment of actual caring for another human being, and it
faded just as quickly as it arose.  After-all, who was he to help another?
It was an idiotic moment that shouldn’t have happened.}

To that very reason, he moved to yank his hands back from her, and
increase the distance between the both of them. “If you were fine, I
wouldn’t be here, but suit yourself. I don’t care.”
