It should mean something, and he wants it to, but she as good as said she was done again as soon as this was all over, and Cassian doesn't want to give in to any kind of optimism; the last time he tried that, it let him down.
The apology hangs in the silence between them, the seconds ticking on awkwardly as he struggles to figure out a good reply. He's beginning to think there isn't one.
He scrubs a hand down his face and turns around to face the cockpit, because he isn't sure he can keep his face as collected as it was before right now. He's rattled and feels more strongly than ever this was a bad idea, because he needs to be focused when they get to Jedha.
