[It's obvious his words are hurting her, and seeing the sadness on her is hurting him as much. He wasn't seeking to upset her or create conflict, but he doesn't want to make her cry again if he leaves again in the coming future.

His arms wrap around her shaking body in a tight hug, his chin resting on her shoulder as he provides comfort to her.

It's easy to tell her that he'll stay, make a promise that will certainly make her happy. But he can't. Unfortunately for her, Soundwave can't make that lie to her, and he doesn't want to make the same mistake if he leaves. Where Monika would delude herself, he has to tell the truth, so Monika can better prepare for it in the case that he's separated from her once again.]


... Until I know what cause my disappearance or why I cannot stay, I am afraid I have no control over it.

[He knows that is not an answer Monika wanted to hear, but he can't lie to her. He can't make any promises until he knows for sure his stay in this resort is either permanent or temporary. For her sake, he hopes it's the former, but--]

If I leave, then I want you to stay strong. Have faith in me, Monika. I will come back to you and will keep coming back until... until this resort allows me to stay with you.

[Hesitantly, he peels Monika off him and cups her chin, gently coaxing her to lift her head up. His other hand wipes away the tears falling down her cheek, brushing them away with his fingers.]
