shadowHmm... as mentioned way earlier, not quite in character. ^^; It's even worse in English as certain language aspects are lost between the two languages as well. I think this is the only Naru POV topic for this series, which is good. He's very hard to write! >.<;; Mai's much easier. :P
It has been two weeks since I returned to England. There's little difference between the work I'm doing here now and what I did in Japan, but what has changed is that I don't go on investigations as often. My real job has always been to analyse the data collected during investigations.
Granted, life in England is different from that in Japan. However, those differences bother me little and is of little consequence to me. I'm not that interested in the country I'm living in as long as I can pursue my research. Likewise, I don't particularly miss living in Japan now that I've returned.
However, there is one difference between my usual self and the way I am now. I noticed it a few days after returning, but it's nothing major. Madoka, however, has also noticed it. And most likely, so has Luella.
Lately, I almost never drink tea.
Even more than actually noticing this change, the fact that I changed so easily is not like me. However, it did happen.
And for whatever reason, Madoka noticed it as well, and seems to enjoy inviting me for tea.
It's a stupid game, and if I drank tea, no doubt Madoka would soon stop. But for whatever reason, I don't feel like drinking tea right now.
Luella's been a bit worried about it, but so far, she hasn't said anything about it.
If I were to move out of that house, she'd probably stop worrying about it. However, besides this one difference, my life there hasn't changed at all since I was last living there.
Except for tea.
......Taking the future into consideration, things could become... not so much bothersome as a bit difficult though.
But just moving will not stop Madoka's games.
When I was living in Japan, I never thought twice about drinking tea, but right now, unless I make it myself, I won't drink it. ......No, I can't drink it is probably closer.
It seems I can drink anything other than tea. As a result, I've since started drinking coffee during these past two weeks. Unfortunately, I haven't gotten completely used to coffee's bitterness.
Every now and again, I still go through an instant of distasteful realisation that rather than drinking tea, I'm actually drinking coffee. Just how long is that going to continue?!
It's been two weeks. Yet for something this foolish to happen...
I never once thought that I'd become addicted to Mai's tea.
It's ridiculous to think that I actually miss tea.
More to follow later. :P
