Vincent just nodded in reply, dark hair moving with the gesture even though it was subtle. "You do not need to remain here." Again it was a voice that was at home in the dark, low and deep. He did not ask her to stay; he had not asked her there in the first place, and she need not keep him company.

But he would remember her, if they met outside of his memory. Hopefully she would not bring up private wounds laid so bare. Otherwise it would not be a pleasure re-meeting her for Vincent.
