Simba managed a slight smile at his daughter. She may look more like him, but she had alot of Nala in her too. The only thing he could see of himself in Kiara besides the appearence was the playful and mischevous side he had as a cub. But aside from that, Kiara was a welcoming, kind lioness like her mother, who always saw hope in everyone and gave them a chance.
He didn't believe that he would ever get over the lost of his mate. He might have gone through that once, kind of. When Scar convinced him he was responsible for Mufasa's death and Simba ran away, he also felt sad about possibly never seeing Nala again. But that time was different, she was still alive, and now she was dead, and he would never see her again.
He forced those thoughts aside when he heard Kiara pose her question, realising that his daughter caught onto the pained expression while he had been thinking of Nala. "Yeah, sort of." Simba said and lay himself down again. For a moment he expected Nala to come to his side and comfort him like she did whenever he felt bad, or whenever they had their rows. But after a moment realised he was being stupid by expecting such a thing to happen.
