It seems to Haise that there was a stiffness about those words as she said them, and he briefly debates the reason. She had asked the day before it he was capable of carrying her over a long period of time without difficulty, and at the time, he hadn't thought much of it. Now, though, he watches her with a quiet concern and evaluates that. He'd thought she seemed young then, and might grow weary traveling around especially if there were supplies to be carried.
But it appears that wasn't quite right, as he watches her now. It's the small movement that prompts him to look down, to notice how tiny her feet are. He hasn't seen something like that before, and worry creases his brow for a beat, but he thinks he shouldn't question.
The subject is difficult to discuss, he can see that much.
