[ Day doesn't say anything. If anything, he's staring into the distance, expression unreadable as he decides that he hates all this, actually. He's never hated or even disliked Solomon, but he doesn't want to sympathize with him over this.
Day is someone who has clung to the world through the maxim of love endures, that you can keep loving something that is lost to you forever, and love something even knowing it will inevitably be lost. Because if he cannot say "yes" to either of those things, then there's nothing left for him. Love is the lifeline and survival mantra he's had a vice grip on for the past five years, so Solomon's heartache is far too relatable and painful for comfort.
He ends up closing his eyes and holding his head with one hand. By the gods, he hates all this. ]
