He feels that squeeze, and he understands it. Trust that it will last is a bit more difficult, after everything, but that doesn't matter so much for right now. He stays there a short while longer, turning his own thoughts over in his head and letting her rest. But it's not too long before he decides to gently extract himself from her.
She's very heavily asleep, it seems, barely stirring at all when he tries to move. Not wanting to just leave her on the front steps, he ultimately decides to scoop her up and carry her inside, quietly willing her to not wake up in the middle of that lest she be less than pleased about being carried somewhere. He sets her down again on a chair, in a different part of the house from where his grandfather has been resting, before returning to Vader. He wants to be able to talk in relative privacy.
