Her response made sense under the circumstances so he went on to another suggestion than remain on the subject of food. "I can keep going if you wanna grab a shower." He also wasn't pushing for eye-contact, more her benefit than his. Cashmere was there and moving forward through her heartache. Her strength to continue amazed him though he hadn't found the words to say as much. It wasn't the right time either, he knew that much.

There was a major concern over whether Cashmere would do something worse than destroy things in the hotel. Trip remained steadfast without giving away his agenda of remaining by her side. It was a trick of not pushing where he found resistance and redirecting every time he came up to a roadblock. He had been fixing the linen with her and continued on to her pillows when he suggested a shower.
