"What do you think of Heiwajima, Shizuo?"
"I hate him."
Really?
"Yes."
Why do you hate him?
"Because he's nothing but a monster."
A monster? Is that really the reason you hate him?
"Yes."
Don't lie. That's not the only reason.
"Then what do you suggest?"
That you enjoy his presence.
"Me? Enjoy his presence? Don't make me laugh."
I'm not kidding.
"What makes you think that I enjoy him being around?"
You smile more when he's around.
"Ha! He makes me irritable."
But isn't his irritability that makes you happy?
"What makes me happy is humans, not a monster like Shizu-chan."
But Shizu-chan is human no matter how you look at it.
"He isn't human."
Yes, he is.
"Amuse me. What part of him is human?"
His smile. His laugh. His heart.
"Heart? If Shizu-chan had a heart he would have been dead a long time ago. He's really nothing but a monster."
A monster. Then what are you? You two are as monsterous as they come, yet you're human.
"Me?"
You're human.
"I'm human."
Yes. You're human. And now I ask. What do you think of Shizu-chan?
"I like him."
Really? Why.
"Because Shizu-chan is amusing."
How?
"He's unppredictable unlike anyone else."
Do you like that part of him?
"Yeah."
But it makes you hate it even more.
"I know. But I like that part of him most."
Let me ask one final time, what do you think of Shizu-chan?
"I really hate Shizu-chan."
"Hahaha! One little question was all it took. I really love humans."
