You're allowed to talk about your feelings, Rin. It's, like... It's healthy to express yourself, especially when things are bleak. That doesn't mean I'm suddenly going to be responsible for you, you know? [A beat.] ... Besides, it's like you said. I'm not so different from you, so it's a little bit of a relief to know I'm not the only one who's scared.
[ Monika talking about being healthy about your emotions like this isn't an extremely foreign concept to him.
But he does feel more at ease with her words, less of an bumbling idiot unloading over a total stranger. Even if there's still a little hesitation, he squeezes her hand in return. ]
... Thanks for saying that. And you're not alone. I'll listen if you ever want to get anything off your chest.

... Thank you, Rin. [she smiles, just a little, and gives his hand one last squeeze.] The same offer goes for you, too, okay? We'll get through this.
