I do not think you did at that. I was so confused when I woke here that I
was not entirely...paying attention to things like that. Grantaire was...
As much as it shames me to say, I was terrified when I knew what was
coming. I knew that I would face it and I did not flinch away from it; it
was simply what was right. But even so... Those last few moments...I am
certain you know more than some of the others, what it is to embrace
something along with fearing it. Grantaire...He allowed me to remain firm
and to die the way I'd wished it. I was as calm as I looked to them then.
...Poor Grantaire. [These words are more of a whisper.]
That he only found his belief in the republic at the last, though I am glad
he found it. One wonders though, if he had allowed himself to live, what
may have come.
[Enjolras is frowning a bit as he thinks of it, really. ]
Probably nothing much, but if he had seen the new republic when it
came...well I do wish one of us had. Who else but the one who would have
needed it most? At any rate, he is at peace now, we can hope. Better
he have that at last. I think he'd gone too long without that sort of
thing.
