[ Jyushi, child... if you only knew the whole story. Rosho almost wants to laugh, both from the genuine concern in Jyushi's voice that is very heartwarming but also he knows exactly just how much Sasara thought about him during the entirety of their time apart. To an agonizing, annoying degree. ]

You barely know Sasara at all and yet you hit the nail on the head just like that. You know, for a comedian, even if sometimes he doesn't take things seriously he's still a really honest person. Because of that, I don't regret it, choosing to be a comedian with him for that time. It didn't work out the way we wanted it to, but at the end of it all I got to do something I wanted to do, and Sasara supported me the whole time. That's what made me decide on becoming a teacher. Because I wanted to support others just like that.

[ He wants to be the sort of hope to others that Sasara gave him. They're painful memories, what happened during his manzai days, but he doesn't regret a single thing. The only thing he does wish had been different was how long he and Sasara spent apart. But that's in the past. ]

I don't think I'd go as far as saying I got a happy ending, but... I'm a lot happier now. I have a few problems, just like everyone else does, but I love my job and I have someone really important to me at my side. So I'd say I'm okay.
