[Just saying he's her son doesn't solve the issue for him. There's so much more to the situation than just being family—it's not as if he hasn't done horrible things, and she knows that.]
[That's the heart of the matter, most likely. Because it is because he's her son. That's part of the main argument there. He's her son, he's hers and Han's, even if he hasn't been born yet in her time.

It's more... you're mine. I'll have watched you grow up.

[With his back turned to her, his expression is unreadable. All the more reason to continue walking away—the somber look he knows must be in his eyes would probably be met with pity.]

Does it have to be from afar?
no subject
It's better that way.
