Things really can't be how they were between them ever again. Too much has changed in her eyes. But she nods stiffly to his request, looking back at the ground.

"Of course." Even if she was the type to betray his privacy, who would believe her? His secret is safe with her. She opens her mouth to speak again, but simply doesn't know what to say. They've said it all, haven't they? It wasn't her intent to upset him, but she stands by what she's said. No, it isn't easy for him, but that just makes it less so for her, having just learned about it. Even if he doesn't know what to make of his situation, at least he's known longer.

"Well, I think there is nothing left to say," she finally says with a glance up at his face before she starts to turn away.
