[ She sounds surprised and taken aback. Obviously because that's a really weird and selfish request she's made, and not because she's somehow embarrassed by the hug. Regardless, with that said she pulls back and nods at her. ]

... Thank you.

[ It means a lot to her. She wishes she could smile, but it's... A bit hard right now. And it would be another lie really. She doesn't have it in her to smile at all right now. But she can speak a bit more normally at least. The tears are no longer flowing and while her throat is still tight, that's not as bad any more. ]

I-I know it may not mean much, but I make the same promise to you. [A pause.] There is a good and happy future awaiting you, I know it.

[ Especially after having talked to her just now. She can tell this girl is a kind-hearted soul. She's kind of like Yato. She has some really bad habits and impulses that are downright destructive... Yet when things really matter, her heart is in the right place. She only needs to respect herself more.

Which she would tell her, but right now? She doesn't have the energy for advice. ]

I only hope next time we'll talk, it... It won't be after reliving my worst memory.

[ She doesn't cry that much usually, she swears! She cries, alright, just, not as much! ]
