Which wasn't as totally conclusive as I would have liked it to be, because if she'd rather I didn't I don't want to just disappear...but then again, we are just standing here in silence and that's rather pointless.
So finally I shrug, move closer to kiss her softly, and then turn to head through to the other room.
She probably deserves to grieve for her not-dead boyfriend without the murderer being present.

I look at him in surprise - again - but he's gone before I can even return the kiss. And for some reason this is the kicker, the final little blow or straw or whatever that makes the tears come... but thankfully not when he's still in the room, and I can just sit down at the table again and cry silently with my head in my hands.
He really is actually gone.
