Mason, regaining his senses, analyzed the situation rationally, "Sure, these things can make anyone mad, but a mature and reasonable person wouldn't resort to violence out of jealousy, let alone kidnap a child.

"Afterwards, I tried to keep my distance to avoid dragging you into further trouble. Still, we kept running into misunderstandings, and you got hurt because of it. I'm sorry."
