Going Out With the Bar Owner
My hatred of my father has been growing day by day. I want to leave my parents’ house as soon as possible. I visited Cafe Yamaneko and then went to the bar Nagomi. I met Non-chan there. She has quite a loud voice, and she asked me, “Teacher! Please paint a picture for me!” I left there earlier than usual. I returned home and had dinner with my parents, but I felt uncomfortable, so I went out again. I went to the bar Ajia-tei. The bar owner, Oki-san, asked me when I would leave Japan. I told him that it would be on the 25th of this month. He was astonished that it was so soon. He suggested going out for drinks. He closed the bar because there were no customers. We went to the bar Cabin. It was dirty as usual. I found some cockroaches, just as before. While we were talking, I had some serious thoughts and cried a little. Anyway, we drank and talked a lot until 4 am. We returned to Ajia-tei and had a glass of beer. I wanted to go to Yoshinoya, but Oki-san was not feeling well. He said that he felt the urge to urinate but could not urinate. He said that he wanted to go to Yoshinoya but could not because he was not feeling well. I was worried about his condition. I went to bed around 4:30 am.
