If she focused on the loss then she'd probably break down, so it was easier to focus on Kinn and making sure he got good food in him. Which is why she disappears long enough to make him some of her lotus root and pork rib soup. However, she also brings out some pork dumplings too.

When she returns and sets the dishes out she gives him a soft smile," Would you like some tea or juice, Master Kinn?" Or if he wanted something stronger she could supply that as well.
