Though she were avoiding eye-contact with the boy, his surprise was quickly noted. Not that such a thing was unusual... no, far from it. Rather, it were merely the fact that oddly, he didn't seem to show the same signs of reluctance nor disdain that she herself had. Granted, the girl had her own reasons for feeling such a way about the news of their intended cooperation, but even if K'rahto's true feelings toward her were nothing short of a mystery, it was an indisputable certainty in her mind that, at the very least, his expression would have revealed the venom of even words witheld.
Though surprised in her own way from the boy's mere reaction - or rather, lack of - K'nahli didn't hesitate long before offering her response.
"...I don't know. K'luha is not fit for travel and I would imagine that they wish to ensure there are more options for situations such as this".
The girl was doing her best to sound as natural as possible in her delivery of each sentence, as though K'rahto was just any other tribesmember - anyone who hadn't constantly spoken down to her in the way that he always had. "Frustrating" wasn't a word that could do enough justice to just how aggravating it was that she needed to try so hard for such a stupidly, menial task. All because of this one, stupid tia.
Still avoiding eye contact, the girl watched the boy only for a second or two longer before deeming it safe to make her departure, satisfied that at least 'that' task was done with - even if it were only but a pitiful taste of what was yet to come.
"Prepare whatever you need and be ready to leave in a bell or two" she added in closing while offering K'rahto a half-hearted wave in farewell before she turning her back on him and hastily retreating toward the camp once again with an eager trot.
