Try as you might, you can't seem to wrap your head around it. She trusts you. When she shuts out the rest of the world, she shares her grief with you.
She falls into your arms, looking at you with pleading eyes, as though your many years have taught you the magic words that can heal her wounds.

"Fix me," she pleads.

"Love me."
And you smile. "I already do."
