The spirit wedding between Aileen and the ghost groom was inevitable and the more that it was drawing closer to fruition, the more hopeless Jace became.
He wanted to comfort Aileen and tell her that everything would be alright but the grim reaper could no longer find the courage to even face her, now that even he had met an impasse. He felt so useless for being unable to stop everything from happening.
"What use it was to be friends with her when even a grim reaper myself can't do anything to help her in her current plight. I feel so sorry to Aileen for having someone as useless as me."
Jace muttered under his breath and while he was busy wallowing to self-blame, he also let his feet take him wherever it wanted to go. He could not be bothered anymore to care.
