[ He pokes Souji on the head. ]
When Souji stands by you like a little terror, she obviously doesn't care about making peace or getting pats from strangers. But in exchange, she's absolutely sure that she'll always have you, and you'll always have her. It's not much in the grand scheme of things, but I'm sure it's enough for her.
If you ask me, it isn't that people can't afford to be earnest. It's that they think they can't afford it. Whether they have a lot or a little, they'll always be afraid to give up any of it. I guess it's only human.
