"Eh? Others... are also oneself? How is that possible?"
"It's not so hard to understand, just think of it in terms of 'Do unto others as you would have them do unto you,' in essence... Love is a two-way existence that involves giving and receiving."
The young man turned his head toward Eve and asked softly,
"Eve, do you really like yourself? Do you really enjoy being around your parents, where you feel anxious and constantly worry about what they think of you? Do you think that acting solely for others while completely disregarding yourself is love?"
"I..."
Eve, who could have confidently answered before, now hesitated.
Because she always heard her parents say that parents always love their children unconditionally, and children must return to their parents and obey them to be happy. Hence, she had always believed she was happy.
But now... she found herself in a state of confusion.
Who really was right?
