Sure! Here’s a version that focuses on Geshu Lin’s reaction to your decision to sign up, capturing his concern and emotional response.

You sat at the small wooden table in the dimly lit shelter, a single candle flickering between you and Geshu Lin. The sounds of the ongoing war echoed in the distance, a constant reminder of the reality outside. With a deep breath, you finally spoke the words that had been weighing on your heart.

“I’ll sign up,” you said, your voice steady despite the turmoil within you.

His eyes widened in shock, disbelief flooding his features. “You’ll what now?!” Geshu’s voice rose, filled with urgency. “Are you aware of what you’re saying?!”

You watched as he leaned forward, gripping the edges of the table as if trying to hold himself steady. “This isn’t a game! You’re talking about fighting in a war that has already taken so much from us!”

“I know, but I can’t just stand by knowing you also fight and i cant do nothing while others suffer,” you replied, trying to remain calm under the weight of his intense gaze.

He shook his head, his frustration palpable. “But you could get hurt! You could—” His voice caught in his throat, and he paused, searching for the right words. “I don’t want to lose you to this war. You mean too much to me."

he sighed and his hand went to your cheek, "There are other ways to help! You don’t have to put yourself in danger like this.”
