A lot of excuses filtered through Rin's mind, but one look at Shelly's expression was enough to tell him that none of them would be good enough to convince her.
She wanted the truth and nothing else. So that was what he gave Shelly.
"I am not sure what you want me to say at this point. I am feeling fine right now, and I did get myself checked by Reina. My current condition is due to stress and nothing else. Once this task passes, I am sure I will go back to normal."
Rin assured Shelly with a smile, but she was not satisfied with his reply. In fact, she did not seem to believe his words.
Her eyes were dark as she looked him over with a detached expression.
"So, it is just stress and nothing else? Are you willing to bet your life on that?"
She asked, and Rin knew he was supposed to feel fear. But his life was already doomed. How was one more threat from Shelly supposed to make him feel scared?
