Oh, for sure. The trick is not to let it all overwhelm you and just enjoy things.
[That's easier said than done, and really, all depends on the person. Fremi strikes Kintoki as the type who has a difficult time relaxing and just moving with the flow of things. That's Golden, of course! But he seemed to also be really stressed constantly.
That's not so Golden.]
But I guarantee ya, the water here ain't nothin' to worry about. Just think of it as kind of helping to wash things away. Like a shower, or bath.
[Kintoki makes it so much easier said than done. It would be nice to have the water just wash away all of his stress and let him restart everything. However, things just weren't that easy.]
It's...not as simple as that.
[He said with a sigh before standing in front of the waterfall.]
Not when so much of your past clashes with the present.
And the present will also become the past. Instead of focusing on what's already happened and done, look to what's happening now and to the next day, and what you can do. Cause there's gonna be a lot of days and a lot of past ahead of you.
The most I can really say to you is to relax.
[Kintoki starts to relax his body, balancing himself out under the water. He can't really make Fremi do or think anything.
And so far he's pretty certain the kid has closed himself off to other people's words.]
If you want, we can talk about it while we're here.
[That was a concept that was difficult for him. He wanted to relax but that was so tricky. There was so many things he was thinking about that he found himself so restless. Attempting to walk toward the waterfall, he swam under it before closing his eyes.
As he tried to let the water calm his body, he just couldn't. Not when his mind kept on rushing.]
It's...
[He said with a sigh.]
...Not as simple as just talking about it. Not when I don't know if my friends are going to accept me or my brother.
