Kid suddenly felt very, very out of place. Something in that look on his teacher's face made him think what he was doing was wrong; just as wrong as Stein had been by leaving. He had nothing more than baseless accusation as to what the other man's been up to and in a sense, it wasn't really his business anymore. His father trusted the scientist, and the very least Kid could do was the same. He was in no position to second guess anyone either.
"I understand." His voice was embarrassed almost. He'd been too quick to judge. And unfairly unbalanced in it as well. "You believe you would be a better asset to us here, where at least you have your mind."
His arm still throbbed painfully though and Kid half-thought he should go over and kick Stein in the head just for the sake of revenge, but he withheld the urge. For now.
