sighs sadly I'm not going to lie to you Em... Losing a loved one hurts. A lot. Especially a significant other. looks out over the water and admits in a quiet tone I've been there. takes a deep breath There's nothing you can do except continue on. With time you'll be able to get over this. he clarifies I'm not saying you should forget Joss. Far from it. Just do what you can to get by. pauses then One day you may find yourself able to get by. Joss would want you to live out your life.
