“Do you think we’d be lovers in another life?” A perplexing question, not something Alhaitham expected from you even in your final moments. How does one answer such a question? It’s not like he’s some sort of omniscient being that can see into the vast space and time of the universe. But at this moment, he wished he could. He wished he could put your worries aside like you’ve always done for him. Now all he’s left with is you, holding your hand, trying to not let go. 
And maybe in another life you two would be lovers. Lovers who would be clinging to each other as you walked through the Bazaar, taking in the smells and colors of all of the goods the merchants have to offer. Hearing every stall owner tell you both that you looked like such a lovely couple and convincing you to buy items in pairs. 
And maybe in another life, you two would be at home, snuggling up on the couch. Reading books, watching some show, or just talking. Oh how much he dreams to hear your voice again, talking about whatever piques your interest. 
“Yes. Of course, dear. We’ll always be lovers, be it now or in the next life.”
And maybe in another life, he wouldn’t have to lie to you. Telling you that you two would be lovers in every lifetime, every universe, every single time. The Akasha Terminal does not have that sort of information stored away, no canned knowledge that can be bought from any market could answer this question. 
In the end, he’ll stay here by your side until the end of your lifetime, wishing that his could end alongside. A punishment for some sort of mistake he made in this life, now having to live it without you. 
The last few breaths, and your breathing slows down. That’s his sign to bring your hand to his lips, one last kiss to your soft skin before you’re out of his arms. As your breathing comes to a halt, Alhaitham hopes the smile on your face confirms his answer as you move on to your next life.
