"I don't know this person," Kevin says out loud, and slumps forward, burying his head in his hands.
"I thought I could find out more by looking at this stuff, figure out who I am. But the more I look at this stuff the more it's like - I don't feel anything. I'm not sad for these people."
He gestures briefly at the box in front of him and also at the box that had Joe's stuff.
"No, I am sad, but only like - oh, it's sad that they're gone. But someone should remember them. Someone should be mourning them. But I can't. I don't know them."
As it is he feels guilty for spilling it all out on Xie, who must also be missing the same person. But the words just start spilling out.
