Elijah waited but then heard nothing. He hung his head and felt a pain in his chest. While he didn't really regret giving his attention to Anthony in such a way, he should have had a little more tact and not upset the man who'd been so kind and listened to him. With his head hung low, he rubbed at his eyes and tried to mentally compose himself though it didn't work. "I.. I'm so sorry. I've always admired you and now you can't even look at me..." He turned away and returned to Anthony's side and rest his head on his hand, feeling like he was about to cry too.
