[Raine hadn't gone to his apartment yet -- she knew she'd be there for a while if she did. All of those plants would need tending, and surely other people would be dropping in to check. And she didn't want to be there when they did.
And she knew, too, that Sayo would have others. Others better able to help her cope with this. But that didn't stop her from coming by, anyway. To make sure that she was all right -- that she would be all right, with something like this. She could deal with her own emotions about this later. Because there was always something in putting someone else first.
And Ginko wouldn't have wanted Sayo to be to her own devices, anyway, and she had long since promised herself to keep checking in on the woman, mostly out of habit and -- other things. She's quiet as she enters, looking around at the apartment before finding her on the couch.
... and there's nothing she can say, really, seeing her like that.]
