I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said that...
[Part of her wanted to hold on to the idea that there had to be something that could push Neo the same way. She didn't know what could but she did wish with all of her heart that it was so.]

[She wouldn't say that she wants Neo to kill her, but remaining a target for her gave Neo something to work toward.]
I know-I know. But-
-But I guess it doesn't matter how much I don't want to see you get hurt if you don't want to see me get hurt, huh?
