There was a minute, once, when I thought...you know, maybe if I'd listened, if I'd taken off the nail polish, maybe it wouldn't have been me.
But then I thought, but if it wasn't me then it would've been someone else. It would've been Yumiko-senpai or Miyuki-chan or Ami-chan. There would've been someone else.
When I think about it like that...then I think it's almost better that it was me.
I mean - maybe, maybe not. Maybe it makes no difference what you did or didn't do. But, if not you, certainly someone else. He was going to do it regardless, because that was how he was.
And you know, because of your help: now it will be no one else.
[ While he wants to argue that it isn't better that it was her instead of someone else, he's sure she'll disagree with him, so he doesn't even bother trying. He's not going to take away what she gave up. ]
But if I weren't up for it, you'd know by now. I certainly wouldn't have suggested a trip. And, besides, I wouldn't ask you to try to do this on your own or with anyone else.

I'll feel safe if you stay with me. I'm sure about that.

I mean, I don't have anywhere else I'd like to be. Not on that date, especially. Whatever you need, alright? Because it's for you.

I know it's a lot to ask. Keeping me safe from phantoms and bad memories for a whole day. Hey...do you think you're up to it?
