Shallan's voice was hushed and urgent. “I can’t do this anymore, Adolin," she whispered. "Lying to him every time I look at him."
“We’re not lying, we’re just not telling him,” said Adolin.
“That’s the same as lying!" raised Shallan her voice and then continued, sounding almost pained. "How much longer?”
“Just until we’ll find a place for him, we can’t kick him out on the street.” The words punched air out of Kaladin's lungs. Were they talking about him? They didn't want him to live with them anymore?

“I thought we could make it work at first," sighed Adolin, clearly disappointed but not surprised. "But after what happened I think it’s a lost cause.” What happened? What did I do? What did I do? pulsed in Kaladin's head. He took few steps back, as if he could run away from their hurtful words.
