Hey, Weather...

There's something I want to ask you, but...

Do you have to pee again?

You're quite aggressive for a convalescent.

What is it?

It couldn't help it.

Um...

It's hard to say...

I-...

I want you...

...to pet me on the head...

No, well...

It's that you don't look like the kind of girl who would ask something like that...

Sorry, you caught me by surprise.

I mean...

It may be out of the blue, but...

But...just a bit...

You can just put a hand on my head.

Then I'll...

I'll try even harder...

Thanks, it's enough.

I'm sorry for being so abrupt.

But thanks to you, now I feel great.

She really looks great now...

Even if she pushed her body to the limit, even if she puked blood...

For her father's sake, her soul is never going to break...

But maybe she's not that strong...

Jolyne

If you want to be petted again, just ask me.

I don't mind.

Anytime you want.

Th-...

Then...

I'll...

I'll ask you again...maybe...

Ok.

I was thinking that maybe Jolyne unconsciously saw something of his father in that silent figure, who had almost his same age and was defending her at the cost of his life, to the point that she wanted to be cuddled by him. They say a girl will fall in love with a man who look like his father, right? Since she wasn't cuddled by her father yet, it's cute how she sticks to Weather.
