"I am writing the story that will never end in my heart."

"If you had to choose, would you be a diamond or a pearl?"

"Simple. A pearl."

"Why a pearl?"

Sen shrugged. "Well, think about it. A diamond is transparent and you can see right through it. So it doesn’t have much of a personality of its own, only that which other people like the diamond cutters give it. So what flavor it has is given by others and represents their perception of it. Sure, there are shiny colors inside a diamond, but it kind of hurts your eyes trying to look at them. And a diamond is so hard that it cuts nearly anything, so it seems if I was a diamond all I could do was damage things. Besides, everyone always wants to own a diamond so it just gets passed from person to person."

Hiroji started at Sen's words. His friend continued, "But a pearl has depth that is fascinating and interesting. When you stare into it, you see many layers that are its personality, a part of how it was formed. The more attention you give to it, the more you polish it, the prettier it becomes. And since it is less valuable, it tends to be treasured for its uniqueness and inner beauty and not for its value. People don't destroy each other over a pearl like they do a diamond."
