"Oh." She had thought about what it might be like, to have acres and acres of manicured lawn to run around on, to have servants to play with whenever you wished, to have long halls to run down and rooms full of sunlight and pretty things, but 'solitary' was not the word she would have used to describe it.

She had honestly been trying to talk about something happy. "I thought..." She looked a little frustrated with herself; embarrassed and bit angry that she might have caused him to remember painful things. "I thought it meant... you had a family."

Because that, more than the manicured lawns or pretty clothes, was what she had envied. Not that Granny and Hitsugaya-kun weren't enough; she wouldn't trade them for anything. But to have a mother, a father... it was something she had wanted. Still wanted, even if she knew it wasn't possible.
