" i dont know. Its what my parents want. "

"Gee whiz! That's just crazy! So if you, say, grow an inch taller or you're doing more exercise or something, what're supposed to do about that? Long as you're not overweight or malnourished or something, being exactly 115 pounds is just ridiculous."

" they just want me to be...perfect, i guess. "

"No one's perfect. Much less you. The perfect person would have all the best traits, never make mistakes, know everything, be the perfect ruler....No offense but good rulers need to know what goes on tin their kingdoms and what things are like. Trust me, adding two or three pounds just because you sspent the day living the life of a civillan ain't going to do more then show you what commoners are like."

She shrugged. " tell that to my parents."

"Unless they weight you evey single day, I highly doubt hayl noticed you gave less then a piund. Besides, if anything, tell them it was me trying to be a gentleman."

" i get weighed and measured everyday. " she said.

"Thats....bot weird at all." Callen grimaced at the thought. "Like seriously. Why in Soleli would someone who's perfectly healthy want to even do that? Well, whatever. If they question it, tell them it was me. If they dont ask, jsut keep your traps shut and I hihly doubt theyd find out."

She shruggs. " its how ive lived all my life. "

"Good grief, they'd better not make me do that, I like my chips and sweets and I highly doubt your parents would approve of the fact I usually get a large bowl of ice cream or something after dinner." Calen looked horrified.
