Fortunately Frith would see that Novella was only trying to help him with her comment, expressing his own sadness for her loss and commenting with a very true statement. A soft smile would grace her features once more at her approval of the sentiment. "No, it's not." She agreed but once more however he was probably in a far worse place than see was, so alone in the world now. She of course wouldn't point that out to him, he had perhaps realised it on her own but far too polite to comment otherwise.
They fell into silence once more, Novella wasn't certain what to say to be honest. A curious part of her considered asking what Frith was doing now, all on his own was surely not a nice way to live after all though she could hardly point that out to him and would keep her mouth closed. It seemed especially rude to pry into his life after their current moment of sharing, the peace that fell over them in the quiet would be allowed to remain undisturbed for a little while longer.
