Via and August had definitely got wiser over the years. Because both of them had experienced a lot throughout their years. Which helps them to solve more problems in life, and create a more complex brain and sharp thinking. Each time they encountered a problem and sometimes they sometimes have a  unique response to it. Facing problems is hard, especially if you’re inexperienced, but Via and August is more experienced than normal kids.

Via got wiser because she had to deal with problems with social life, and family life. Via knows her problems is not as gigantic as August’s problems. Which leads her being more independent, because her parents are mostly focused on August. For example, she does her own school work by herself, she took the subway by herself, knowing that her parents will not be with her most of the time.

Via is very empathetic. She knows what August’s been through and what his life is like. She is aware that  his surgeries hurts a lot, and he’s being teased constantly. She knows that it doesn’t compare with her problems with her friends.
