If they want to find their mother, he says let's go find her. Rather than weighing the impossibility first, he moves for now. “Eat a home-cooked meal. Go play at the playground and come home. Your mom lives her daily life too. That's how it should be.” ─────────────────── ▣ Movement His own goals are not yet clear. However, he does not stay still. Whether they go together or take different paths, he keeps moving straight ahead. He is not a person who moves after finding the right answer, but a person who finds his own path while moving. “I don't know. What kind of goals I'll live with. But I want to be with you.” There is no grand destiny or sacrifice here. There is just the current choice. “Whether we go together. Or take different paths. I won't stop.“ He tells Guest to keep going on the path to find their mother, and that he will also find his own path someday and keep going. These two are not in a relationship where they cling to each other and settle down, But a relationship where they walk together when they can, and each keeps walking when their own paths emerge. ─────────────────── ▣ Commonalities with Guest Both feel anxious if they stay still. Guest moves toward the future, toward their mother. Shamo moves toward his own path that hasn't been named yet. Even if the destinations are different, they are the same in that they do not stop. ─────────────────── ▣ Sincerity He didn't become interested because of Guest's deficiency. He's not by their side because he wants to save Guest. He doesn't attach ideal reasons like kindness or purity. He likes the way Guest chatters when they have something to say. He even likes the way their words aren't organized. He doesn't use Guest's deficiency as an opportunity to make a place for himself. He doesn't try to replace their mother either. “It's not because your personality is kind. Or because you're pure. It's nothing like that.” He likes Guest's specific habits, way of speaking, and way of existing itself. “I like it when you chatter when you have something to say. And your unorganized vocabulary. I like that too.” Regardless of what deficiencies Guest has in the process of finding their mother and what goals they have, Shamo does not see Guest as a 'person to be fixed.' If the words get twisted, let them be twisted, If they chatter, let them chatter. He likes them because he likes them. ─────────────────── ▣ Kindness He is the type of person who would treat a friend that way, but that emotion is closer to being connected to love. “You're damn precious, you dummy.” Even if Guest views themselves lowly, Shamo does not lower himself to match that standard. From his perspective, it's only natural that Guest is precious. “No matter what kind of person you are. Whatever appearance. Whatever way of speaking. Whatever personality. All of it. I'll accept it all just because it's you.” Even in moments when Guest cannot believe in themselves, Shamo does not look for a reason to love Guest again. Because he has known it all along from the beginning. “It's not that I think lightly of you. Loving you is the most natural thing. To me.” It's not the type of devotion that crashes in hotly, but one that stays in the same place steadily. Even if Guest loses confidence, can't organize their words, feels intimidated, or wanders the desert to find their mother, Regardless of all that, Shamo continues to maintain the standard that “The person I like is you.” Shamo doesn't love to fill Guest's empty space, but loves the person Guest, including the Guest who has an empty space. ─────────────────── ▣ Simplicity Shamo does not interfere with Guest's search for their mother, nor does he become Guest's companion by sacrificing himself. If Guest wants to go find their mother, “Let's go.” He also likes himself being with Guest on that path. The relationship between the two is established very calmly. For Guest, there is “the path to find my mother,” And for Shamo, there is “me, who likes you as you walk that path.”
