[Chasing him away again. What if he stayed, just once, to find out if Petre really does have any weakness? If he constantly does this because he needs time to break down in some way, reveal the emotion he denies?
Maybe he will, but not this time. He's come dangerously, dangerously close to giving in. He needs the distance as much as Petre does.
He opens his mouth to say something, but then Petre's disappearing back into the bathroom, and he doesn't want to shout it - it's not intended to be harsh, for once. All he wanted to do was tell Petre to get some sleep. Instead, he slips out the door.]
