[an expression less so of sympathy but more of understanding crosses his face. having done a less than pleasant betrayal relatively recently (and denying it being that), kratos can understand to a degree how ferran feels.]

Whether or not they let you doesn't mean you can't try regardless.

[kratos doesn't know the situation, nor does he plan on prying more for the moment unless ferran willing shares. what he does know, however, is that actions speak more than words.]

After experiencing a betrayal, especially a significant one, may would be understandably hesitant to associate with you. However, if they see you trying without prompting and continue to see you put in the effort by how you act, then they may become more willing to let you try in effort to regain their trust.
