Rosita, at least, is used to losing people. She can operate around the ache, function even when she's still tripping on the fresh memory of them not being here.
Doing that knowing that they've gone back to somewhere better? Without any doubt about that? It's simple by comparison, even if it's still hard for those left behind.
"Yeah," she agrees, shifting closer. "We will. We've got people left here. We've got shit to do." And as long as they have that, she and Jesus know how to keep getting up every morning.
