False Assumptions

He stared at the screen long enough that I had to slap him on the back to finally regain his attention.


"Can we go now? You've found out who started the war, what else is there?"


"This... This can't be right!"


"The security systems are going turn back on any moment now, we gotta get outta here!"


"I'm staying!"


"...


Fine."


I turned and headed out the door, assuming he'd come to his senses and follow me.


By the time I got out, that assumption was proven false.


As were his, although knowing him, he probably convinced himself of a lie.
