060 cube star 8
Marvin didn't understand what Little Square was saying at all. He had to interrupt Little Square's tirade and said: "You mean you just want to be alone for a while and don't want to be with those squares, right?"
Little Cube nodded and said, "Yes. But they didn't agree."
Marvin said: "Who wouldn't agree?"
"All of them square."
"There is no way to communicate with all the squares." Marvin thought of how he would say a word and countless squares would respond, "Do you have a leader?"
"What's a boss?"
Marvin thought for a while and said: "It's the king, the president, the chief, the village chief, the captain and so on."
Little Cube shook his head.
"Then who has the final say here?"
"They have the final say." Little Cube replied.
It's them again. Marvin feels this is very difficult.
He suddenly thought of something that happened when Mia was a child. At that time, Mia had just learned to sit up and could neither crawl nor walk.
Mia especially likes to snatch Marvin's things. Marvin is very angry with Mia.
Mom and dad told Marvin: "Marvin, Mia didn't steal your things on purpose. Because Mia is too young, she is just a baby, and she doesn't know the difference between you and her. She thinks you are her, and she
It’s you, you are one person.”
"Huh?" Marvin felt very strange, "I am a boy and she is a girl. She is a little baby and I am a big brother. We are not the same person."
The mother said: "But the baby doesn't know that, so she will treat you as herself and think that your things are her things."
Later, when Mia started to learn to speak, she often confused "you" and "I".
For example, if Mia wants Marvin to give her something, she will say: "Give it to you quickly!"
When Mia didn't want Marvin to be around her, she would say, "I'm going to get out of here!"
The mother explained: "The baby's identity is unknown when he is a child, and his language is unknown when he grows up."
Marvin didn't understand what his mother was saying at all, but he could also understand that babies only learn to distinguish between you and me as they grow.
Marvin is now five years old, and sometimes he still can't distinguish between what is his own and what is other people's.
Mom called this distinction boundaries.
Now that Marvin saw the small squares in front of him, he finally understood. The squares on the square star have no boundaries between you, me and him.
"Then I'll go and talk to them." Marvin asked Little Cube to get on the off-road vehicle, and then drove to the altar.
Marvin stood next to the tower that held the king's heart and asked, "Which one is Altar of the Transfiguration No. 1?"
A cube jumped in front of Marvin and said: "I am Marvin, what can I do?"
Marvin told the idea of Little Cube to the Transfiguration Altar No. 1. The Transfiguration Altar looked at Little Cube with a strange look and said: "Our Cube Planet is a big family. All Cubes are members of this family.
Our ancestors have been united and helped each other and are connected for generations."
"But...sometimes when we are all together, we lose ourselves. Each square has no freedom. Look, you have so many squares, even they speak exactly the same."
"Isn't this great? We are all family, brothers and sisters."
Marvin thought for a while and said: "Then some people should be allowed to live their own lives."
Altar of the Transfiguration No. 1 said: "If everyone were like that, our family would no longer exist."
Marvin suddenly realized that the situation of this square star seemed to be exactly the opposite of the giant stars he had visited before——
People on the giant star just want to stay away from others and live their own lives.
The cubes on the cube star hope to stay together for a lifetime and never be separated.
Marvin, who has had the experience of building a fairy tale town on a giant star, knows that it is wrong to force people apart and force them together, and it will not make people happy.
