We wander through the streets.
It reminds me of home.
All the sellers and all the people.
It's a great change from the three months in the house.
Fresh air and good food mix in.
We go to a teahouse and eat. Dangos and tea.
Count just sips on his tea. Looking out the window.
"Is this what you miss?" He asks me.
"A little. I don't like being holed up in the house all the time. It's boring."
After we finish. We stroll again. He takes a break just to return in a minute. The pocket bulges but I don't say anything,
I buy some fabric and a potted sakura tree.
Then we leave. Back to the house.
