"Something important had come up. I'm aware that it was not quite important as the situation now, and I will keep that in mind." It was the closest to an apology he would ever get, his pride stopped him from even thinking the words 'sorry'. It made it sound like he was at fault- even though he really was-, and made him feel lesser, like he was bowing to another entity, even if it was his wife. Even though he seemed sincere, he knew he was lying through his teeth. Ever since he set his mind on 'conquering the sun', it had become his number one task, and all things fell second. It brought him no guilt or shame to disregard family matters in pursuit of something he saw greater, though he was aware that Eury and probably Genji would probably start poking them more and more for information. While he knew Eury was curious about his ideals and even in some way encouraged him, he was still hesitant to speak to her of the mask. Meanwhile, he hadn't said a word to Genji, though wasn't sure of Esidisi had blabbered on about it, but Kars knew the boy was righteous if anything and wouldn't agree with being superior above all.

At Eury's poor attempts to keep him lodged to her side, he simply shook his head and sighed. "No, I believe you're the one who needs rest. You are carrying the child, yes?" Without letting her respond, he slowly pulled his arm from her grasp, even as it tightened and her nails dig into his skin, becoming more aggressive. "Esidisi called for me. About the wedding. I will return soon." It was another lie- Kars had called the meeting, wishing to pursue the plans of the mask he had in mind, and hoped that she would simply go along with it. With a simple goodbye glance, he exited the room and began trekking towards their planned rendezvous, soon coming across the impatient man.

"Eury's already suspicious, and no doubt Genji will be soon." He commented matter of factly, though it was something they both already knew.

Tiredly, he booped Esidisi's nose with a small grin, turning around and pressing his back against the counter, crossing his arms. "Too good?" He echoed with an incredulous snort, rolling his eyes, "He's the physical embodiment of edgy. You're lucky he even tolerates you." He retorted lightly. At the man's little compliment he couldn't help but give a little chuckle, his grin widening. However, it was quickly replaced by a frown as Esidisi announced his departure.

Genji noticed that the man had been leaving more and more, and was able to read through the man's sweet remarks. At first he figured it was just as he said, a few errands, though his trips had become more frequent and longer and had left Genji up all night worrying, his mind racing through all the possibilities with only a cup of tea for comfort. He trusted Esidisi wouldn't do anything risky or stupid, but then again, he was a confident man. Eury had also shared that Kars seemed to be taking long trips away only to return in the middle of the night without a word. He was suspicious at most,, but played it cool and blowed a kiss towards his companion as he walked out.
