The comeback should've been easy. A hundred quips were just waiting to spill forth and edge the conversation back to the jovial.
Ken shocked himself when he replied "I know," in a soft, low tone of voice. "It's awful, isn't it. I acted like a complete jackass to Ran the other day, screaming at him like that. I almost destroyed my friendship with Omi," he listed on his fingers, "and I have no idea why you don't run screaming when I walk in the room."
He looked ahead at the wall across the room, his calm, disconnected expression a duplicate of the one he wore only four days ago in the car as he revealed his backstory.
"Don't worry, I'm getting things under control. And I swear to God, if I start to lose my grip...I'll say something. Before it gets bad."
