[ . . . and Jae-ha is quieter when he responds. He doesn't sound any less certain, but he tries to be gentle, as he watches Hikage's expression change.]

... you say that you're lying - but with them, I don't think you are.

[When he's with the people he cares about, he doesn't think that's a lie.]

... for the first twelve years of my life, I was locked up. I only saw the sky when I was trying to escape. I didn't know anyone in the village, except I knew that they hated me. I only knew one other person - and he hated me too. I was told that there wouldn't be anything out there for me in the world.

[He didn't mention this the last time they spoke - he only picked it apart into little pieces. The first time he tried to trust. But.]

It feels like everything is going to come crashing down - the first time you make another person laugh, or smile, or do the right thing, instead of having them hate you.
