Vincent kept asking why. He buried his head in his arms and tore at his hair, yelling desperately, "Why? Why?!" Rosalie patted his back, not knowing what to say tofort him.
Not all pain could be soothed with mere words.

Just then, Vincent pleaded in her ear, "Don't move. Lethug you like this just for a while. Please." Rosalie sighed inwardly.
She patted his back and said, "This isn't your fault. It's all the fault of those villains. I trust Youngie wouldn't blyou, either. She'd want you to treasure the present and live every day to the fullest. She wouldn't want you to be in pain anymore." "Rosalie, I'm sorry for keeping you here and treating you as Youngie over the last few days. I was just pursuing memories of the past and living in an illusion. When I first saw you, it was as if I saw Youngie. I couldn't stand the thought of getting hurt by them." Guilt and regret were etched on his face and sorrow and helplessness filled his eyes.

Vincent was apologizing to her, but he was also telling her about his internal struggle and pain. He was trying to explain his behavior, but he felt overwhelming helplessness at the stime.
"No matter what, thank you for saving me. Whether you were treatingas Youngie or myself, you saved me," Rosalie said. "Even if I didn't take you as Youngie, I would have saved you anyway," Vincent replied.
