Ben nodded quietly and took another sip of his tea, letting the warm fluid comfort him. Again he closed his eyes and breathed out, leveling out his feelings. He didn’t close himself off though, not entirely. He just needed to step back and take a break.

However his gaze wanders over to the little chrono he has nearby and his eyes widen.

“I need to go,” he says suddenly and gets to his feet. Downing his tea quickly he grabs something quick to eat and scrambles to get himself ready to go.
