The narrator returns to the hotel to find that the boy who ran away has been brought in to the front desk. The narrator thanks the young man who brought the boy in and tells him that he is sorry for causing her trouble. The young man tells the narrator that he found the boy wearing the same clothes as his own, and the narrator is glad that he was brought in. He tells the boy that his mother is there and that she is sorry that she had to care for the boy. The boy says that he loves the young woman and that they get along well because they are both handsome and good-looking. He says that the two of them are even better suited to each other than they are to one another because they have the same brain, and he says that it is better if they were "a bit of a different." The young woman says that she loves the boy and wishes that she could call him to her wedding, but the narrator tells her that it would be easier if she were simple and did not have to deal with her problems. He asks the boy if he bought anything and the boy says yes, but that they split up because he ran away. He is happy that he has found her, but he wishes that he could be kind to her, and they can go home together.
