She is a sister whose world I may eventually destroy, in the same way that my own was.
[So he had hoped (tried to fool himself, to some extent) that maybe the two of them would just be stuck here forever. They got along. She made Ken miserable at first, but by the end of their few months together Miles and Franziska weren't fighting with each other any longer. He would probably lose all of that if, in the future, he ended up arresting Manfred von Karma, and he wasn't sure if he wanted to think about such losses.
(Not that any of it mattered now, he thinks to himself, since he was aware of--and had accepted--the fact that he would have to risk losing everything for the sake of pursuing the truth.)
Aside from her and her family, I don't have anybody back there. It makes me very happy to have you and Ken to call my family here.
