Artem: Sunshine After the Rain
|
---|
Artem: Sorry... I'm still a little jet-lagged. I was taking a nap when you called, so I didn't pick up.
Artem: Don't worry, I'm feeling better now. I'm also eating well, so you don't have to worry.
Artem: Yes, I saw the news. Rodi Castle should be back in operation after the tide recedes.
Artem: ...True. In some sense, that storm can also be counted as a "black swan event."
Artem: Although there was no severe damage, it did have some big impact on me.
Artem: I'd let myself be a little more "stubborn" sometimes... I love these subtle changes when I'm with you.
Artem: What's up? You look like you have something to say.
Artem: I thought we already made an agreement? No need to hold back in front of me.
Artem: ...You want to meet up? Right now?
Artem: I am available. It's just that... I'm a little surprised that we both had the same thought.
Artem: I mean it. It wasn't obvious because I was still too restrained. I'd worry that my thoughts could come across as awkward.
Artem: I will try my best to get used to being more spontaneous and natural when I'm with you.
Artem: You're right. The best time to change is now... Then I'll be the one to say it this time.
Artem: Can I come find you right now? We don't need to do much, even just a stroll in the neighborhood would be nice.
Artem: Great. I'm coming over right now. Wait for me.
