Megumi was a gifted child whom some adults put a lot of pressure on with their expectations, and who, along the way, lost people he deeply cherished and cared for. Hell, his own father was absent before eventually dying. I mean, he basically had to watch how his own two hands killed the two most crucial people in his life. I can't even imagine the pain he felt after Gojo dying, especially. After all, Gojo was the only constant adult figure in his life who didn't treat him any differently than he would any other child. To him, Megumi was just Megumi. Not a Zenin, not Toji's child, and I believe that it brought a lot of comfort to Megumi who was already broken to some degree. I know that I am probably reading too much into it, lol.
