David has become fairly good at noticing when people hide their pain though. He might not be great at it, but one who does not speak as much as he pays attention notices these things. It bothers him more, not only that Abraham left them, but that it seems to upset Henry so much.

He hides his own dislike fairly well, giving a simple nod to this. "Alright." Though he thought better to not say anything, he couldn't help but speak up. "Wouldn't it be better if you just sat and spoke with him? Have a drink and short conversation? Dinner shouldn't be needed." And that was as much as he dared to speak on this topic, for what Henry wanted he got. But he didn't have to like the idea of this visit, did he?
