[ Indeed, 'feeling left out' is the impression Zelda is getting from Sheik—the way he tries to play at being unaffected, yet taps his fingers as though impatient to move past this subject. There's a question of 'why' in Zelda's mind (why does "something between us Zeldas" have him so disgruntled?) but it begs an answer that Sheik probably won't provide.
But that isn't the only part that catches Zelda's attention (which, thankfully, allows her to maneuver the conversation in a slightly different direction). ]
She feels she owes me something... [ Zelda repeats, musing aloud. ] I cannot imagine what she could possibly owe me, given that we have never met.
[ She looks down into her teacup, holding it in one hand and swirling its contents. (Not very good manners, her father would chide.) ]
What do you make of her? [ Though the question seems to be directed at the teacup, Sheik will know it's to him. The real question is unspoken: does Sheik believe this 'Zelda of Skyloft' and her tales? Although Zelda would like to trust another Hylian, war has taught her to be more cautious. ]
