[ Whatever desire she has to see him sooner rather than later isn't reciprocated; his last message makes that abundantly clear. But this isn't news to Mako — Mako who had spent the last vestiges of their friendship chasing after something in Chuck that had long since ceased to exist. The feeling of returning to it now (again) is familiar, almost nostalgic (and therefore painful in the way most memories were). But what had once been poignant has been worn down to little more than a dull presence under Mako's breastbone. Perhaps this was another instance of Chuck simply needing Chuck and no one else. Or perhaps he simply didn't want to see her (there are elephants in the room, ones that loom as large as death).

Whatever the case, she doesn't take it personally. (Just because she doesn't agree with Chuck doesn't mean she's failed to understand him over the years.) He was entitled to his space and beyond being a fellow ranger, he didn't owe her anything.

(That's what she tells herself.)
