She wants to call him a liar, she wants to deny that he loves her because how can he love her if he did this? But she can't, because she knows things aren't always that simple.
Jessica disappeared too, buts he knows without a shadow of doubt that her sister loves her. That she always did.
She has forgiven Jessica, maybe one day she'll be able to forgive Bruce too.
She feels some of her rage ebb away, the worst edge taken off by her furious outburst. She lets out a shivery breath, no longer bothering with trying to stop the tears from running down her cheeks.
"I was happy with you. If you needed to go... fine."
She's not letting him off the hook, but she still loves him too much to not let him know that she does know that sometimes you just can't say why you have to go.
"But don't make it about protecting me. I never needed to be protected from you."
Maybe the rest of the world did, what the hell does she know, but she is absolutely certain that he was never a danger to her.
