"It wasn't your fault."
"I know. Dios, I know."
He knows. He had no control over what happened, and that's why he blames himself. He caused the situation, so in the end it was his fault.
"I'm sorry."
"Don't be. You didn't mean it to happen."
People say the strangest things. "I'm sorry" - next they'll apologise for the way they hung the moon.
"Are you alright?"
"I'm fine, what do you think?"
Oh, he's just dandy, wouldn't change a thing. Alright? Of course he's alright (if you're looking in a mirror and ignoring reality).
"If there's anything I can do to help..."
"Don't be ridiculous."
Of course you can help! Let's just hop in your time machine, and whoosh this all away! Oh, it isn't working? What a surprise.
"You never smile any more."
"Funny, that."
What exactly does he have to smile about? It isn't a requirement of living, he can do without just fine.
"Do-"
"I don't care! I honestly don't care!"
Why should he care? What's the point? Don't give him that rubbish about "life is wonderful", he doesn't wonder anymore. You don't have to wonder when you know the answer.
"It's been two years, you need to let it go."
"I saw a movie like that. The main character almost died from poor decision making."
Let it go? What does he have left if he lets go?
