[Lacing her hands together, it was hitting that line of tension that she wasn't good at handling and she knew it by the weight at her very chest. She shook her head at him with a small smile, trying to keep herself together for his sake and for hers.]

Yes, of course. I'm not saying we shouldn't spend any time together. I'm just saying that I might act a little out of sorts while I try to fix myself, okay? I just don't want you to take it personally. If you want to eat lunch with me, just tell me. If you want to go somewhere together, let me know. I'm not going to ignore you. I'm not going to be upset with you. I'm not going to ignore you.

[Voile paused and turned a few shades of pink as she continued.] I still care for you. About you. I still love you. You are still important to me and your happiness is still important to me. None of that changes, regardless of whatever I'm going through, okay?
