It could be worse. At least I remember him this time. [An odd choice of words, but the knowledge of Zack bolstered him. Just not in the same way his presence would.]

I'm sorry. I don't want to burden anyone with my problems. But...thank you for your advice. I'll think about what Zack would do if he was still here. I don't know if he'd have the best answer, but he'd have the one he most believed in.
