Since this whole stay inside for your safety thing began, Yufi canāt say sheās been doing well. Not that thereās nothing for her to do at home; on the contrary, her commune has everything she could possibly want to do in it. Thereās no reason to leave the neighborhood, or even the estate, when there are parlors for every type of entertainment. Thatās the privilege of being elite, isnāt it, that most practical things can be at oneās fingertips should they desire it.
But thatās exactly what Yufi loathes. Thereās no spontaneity, nothing that goes unexpected. Each day is a duplicate of another, the absolute same, into which all seems to blur into one another. It leaves her irritable, antsy, and even the usual tasks she utilizes to alleviate tension donāt seem to work. For when painting and walks have become the daily norm to fulfill the time, then their effectiveness in other properties ultimately diminishes.
She knows itās risky, not necessarily the safest thing she could do, but when Godo asks what they can do as to remove the semi-permanent moping from her mouth, the response slides from her lips, smoother than the shochu sheās unraveled the cap from and is pouring into a cup.
Who brings him to her, or whether itās even explained to him why heās been shipped from one end of country to another... All the fine details are unclear and unneeded, at least as far as sheās concerned. Most things are, and even the edge of her vision is a little blurred by the time he makes it to her side, door handle uncharacteristically warm from the amount of times Yufiās checked every few moments to see if heās arrived. She mustāve been there not too long ago, but when Tida enters he can find her roaming around the tatami clad in socks, an oversized shirt she swore to him sheād never wear (because how could a person of her caliber ever wear one of those anime shirts?), swooning from side-to-side. She takes a swig from plum wine, hand tightly grasped around the neck of the bottle, and spins on the ball of feet, albeit in uncoordinated fashion.Ā Her memory might be shaky, but the center of her focus is clear, and the host grins when she sees her friendās arrived.
ā Oh, hey! Welcome home! Or... hey, you know what I meant. You basically could live here. Nothingās stopping you except you, yāknow. ā
Yufiās been good in the sense that her phoneās been away from her reach this entire time (hard to keep it on you when you donāt have pockets, right?), but still, she points to where it idly sits on kitchen counter, notification indicator flashing to the rhythm of dance-beats escaping from Bluetooth connected speakers.
ā I figured I should leave that there...otherwise Iāll look like... what do you call the girl on this shirt? Ahegao? All over your Snapchat. You didnāt want that, right? ā
Oh, Tida. Your work is cut out for you, isnāt it? But sheās trying to be responsible!
