His confidence in her trusting her feelings causes Rey to shake her head and look away. Fear radiates off of her, and she doesn't try to conceal it. She's been through too much recently to allow herself to trust that the connection between her and Leia are anything but dangerous. She's got a strong suspicion that the exact spot where their fates are intertwined relates to her son. Ben Solo is gone and Rey is afraid of the man that killed him and stands in his place.

"I'm not sure that it's her that I'm specifically intertwined with," she softly points out, trying to gather her courage so he doesn't think less of her.

She puts a smile on her face even through her doubt and her fear. Han Solo mentioned something about balance in the Force. About the light overcoming the dark. No matter what happens, she's determined to embrace the light.

"Trusting your feelings is a challenge when you've only just started listening to them. I need guidance. And a teacher."
