He reminds her of Czes, of all people? Then 10 year old little boy who's always been so deathly shy around him? The one who still starts and fumbles over his words when he asks him a question? The little boy who always seems to hide behind the shadow of his sister?
But then she keeps talking and... he feels like he can understand. Even a shy sibling is likely to be a different person when they're around family.
Then he thinks a little more and the true meaning behind those words sinks in. She... she thinks of him as a brother, doesn't she?
... And doesn't he think of her as a sister, too? He may say he relents in arguments because it's easier than fighting, but... that's not quite true, is it? He just... Law hasn't had the chance to be a brother since his sister died. He never had the chance to form another relationship like that. Never thought he would be able to.
A sibling relationship wasn't one that could be easily found, but maybe this is one.
... It would certainly explain a lot about his own behavior, to be honest.]
