"Thank you... my love." Yale hesitantly calls you that all the time, knowing you have no proper recollection of you being his partner. It's just wishful thinking that if he calls you that and gently strokes your face like he used to when you were alive that you would remember.

He didn't care if you wouldn't remember all of it. Yale just wanted some kind of sign that you were alive emotionally because each day he feels deader than you. So please, give him some hope here. He needs it.
