[ Just as Faith had said, she doesn't know what he has to deal with; it was never just about Kate. He wishes it was that easy, to see the world in such positive way and to forget about the ghosts of the past.
But he's not there yet, and in all truth, he doesn't know when he'll be, if ever.
So, he simply nods, then motions whoever is in charge of the bar to refill his glass. ]

[ He doesn't look up at Faith, but it's obvious he's addressing her. He apologized, that's it, right? ]
[That's all they're going to get out of this, isn't it? That's all right. It's enough. He cares, in his own way. Maybe they'll get further in time, but for now, Faith's okay with this.]
Nah. [She smiles.] Gonna get back to the house now. See ya 'round, yeh?
[If there's nothing else, she'll wave and head off, feeling better overall because, in her mind, she's started to make a new friend.]
[ That's all they are going to get out of this. He cannot understand why she's smiling, but if that makes her happy... Then everything might actually be fine, no matter what he feels, really. When has that mattered anyway? The sole person who ever cared no longer exists.
He observes as she leaves and stays at the bar for a couple of drinks more before he realizes that he doesn't want to deal with another hangover ever again. ]
