[That's not how it works and it hurts to explain that it doesn't matter-it won't change anything. No amount of hope or pleading or trying to be tough is going to stop this 'disease' from killing her. It took out the entire world-she's no exception.
But she doesn't care about explaining it. About disproving his claims or trying to get him to understand, because he didn't let go. Just like he promised, he's still here, holding her tight and it makes her wish-
Makes her think she had been wrong this entire time. That hiding this was foolish, when it's not changing the way her family holds her and the weight of this secret rises off her like a burden she never had to carry.
If you wanna live longer, I think you damn well can.
For a second, a minute, she wishes-
That cures worked like that.]
It's okay.
[Is all she can manage to say. She's lived with this for a long time, has known and gone through the pain of realizing she will die alone, has found a way to plead her case to a grim reaper who promised to find her, because she's not looking to escape a fate that's impossible to rise above.
There's no point in really thinking about it.]
Is it okay-if we're still family? Is that kind of thing alright?
