[...Right. Right, of course he needs time. This isn't surprising. It's to be expected. Riza would probably be the same way if she were in his shoes.

She lets him go. Didn't she just say she'd never bring it up again? Running after him would only make her a hypocrite.
But having him touch her again, even for those brief moments, is almost too much. Memories of nights they shared together, without emotional barriers between them, flood her mind. She can still remember everything, his touches, his kisses, everything, and now they're back to the way they were.
Riza bites her lip again and keeps herself in check. She'll be strong for now. She always has been. For him.]
