What I was trying to point out was that Clare wanted to be with Raki. It wasnt about protection, or because he was insisting on it, or any moral issue at that point. Clare herself wants to seek out Raki to be together with him again, and she is willing to give out effort to do so. Like I said, it is too soon for it to be branded as romantic feelings, but I think that is where it is headed.

I just think that if her feelings for Raki were exclusively sisterly, or for family, she would not even try to look for him, since being away from her would be for his own sake. But despite knowing this fact, Clare made that promise, showing signs of selfishness (not the bad kind), and I believe acting in accordance with what she wants, not what she wants for Raki.

And I mean, just look at Clare's face in that scene. If that wasnt romantic/extremely affectionate (kind of the same thing), what the hell is?
