[Even if it was a different life, a what if sorta deal, she still consider that experience as a precious memory. They may not be blood relatives, but she still cared about him all the same. How couldn't she? He was someone very dear to Yuu, who she considers to be like her brother from a different universe, and along with that -- Mika was a boy whose life was stolen away from him. A boy that was forced to grow up as Yuu has. She couldn't help want to bring some of that childhood back to him for as long as he remains in this particular world with her. They can all be happy here, no matter what may happen. She'll protect them both as best as she can.

Reaching for his shoulder, she'll offer it a light squeeze to show her silent gratitude for his honesty, knowing it must be difficult for him to admit to any of her questions, but it was appreciated all the same. Trying to wipe her own tears away, she'll nod her head in understanding.]
