[She smiles at him, more than a little touched. They definitely weren't this close a year ago. And now here they are, oddly in synch with one another's feelings. A lot has changed, both between them and inside of herself.]
And you're right. I do miss him, and probably will for a very long time. But I feel far more gratitude than regret. You needn't worry; if my heart breaks, I won't attempt to hide it from you this time.
[No goading him into a fight in a pitiful attempt to end her life, no desperate sacrifices. There's no way she'd put him through that again.]
Of course, I'm sure he'd say the same for you. I hope you don't intend to pine for him locked away in your room.
[Her little grin widens with mischievous affection. Of course Yuri wouldn't do that, but even so. It's not easy to lose a friend without having a chance to say goodbye.]
