Then shouldn't we at least try to respect the choices she made? That won't make it hurt less, but I think that's the least we can do now, besides... trying to remember everything we can for her.

And we'll bring her back, no matter it takes. Hikaru-san and the rest of them won't be gone forever.

[ maybe that isn't much comfort. it doesn't change that she's gone now, and that it still hurts. but it's something, isn't it? ]

I don't think she or any of the others would want us to give up on hoping for a better end to this.
