He was happy for his old friend. He had heard his old friend sigh many times, and after understanding the reason for his sadness, he didn't know how to comfort him.
His old friend told him that he might be the only survivor of their tribe.
He understood why his old friend kept himself busy all day and never relaxed like him, basking in the sun, watching the breeze, and sipping drinks.
Because whenever his old friend settled down, he couldn't help but think of his hometown, his tribesmen, and how he was a lonely existence in this world.
Such emotions were unbearable for his already melancholy and sensitive old friend.
He had also seen his old friend try to drown his sorrows in alcohol, only to become more sorrowful, and he even considered suicide.
Later, his old friend kept himself busy, so he wouldn't have time to think about those sad things.
