[Chizuru wants to offer words of encouragement, of comfort - but the fact that Heisuke can barely bring himself to answer made her realize that any sort of noise might just make things worse.
But she didn't know--she couldn't just stand there and watch..! What was she supposed to do?!
Even if she was to do something, how could she, when she had no idea where she was?! It frustrated her, made her angry--and the only thing she could do about it was swallow her upset. It was a bitter, painful thing to swallow, causing her eyes to sting as tears threatened to come to her eyes.
She blinks them away quickly. She can't cry. She won't allow Heisuke to worry about anything other than himself right now. As he requested, she waits in silence.]
