Chapter 30: I want

I was underwater, my eyes closed. I felt bad this morning for some unknown reason. In my previous life, I had lived a modest and simple life, but now I was very distressed by all these intrigues and mind games. Sometimes, I had the urge to leave everything behind, escape from here, and live in a small cabin in a distant, snowy region. Of course, such a thing wasn't going to happen because I now had a family I had accepted here and a lot of work to do.

I lifted my head out of the water and got out of the tub filled with cold water. I entered my room naked and put on a piece of cloth. Then, after eating the last slice of cake left over from yesterday on the table, I got dressed. As the sweet cake melted in my mouth, I remembered Roxanne's state yesterday and noted in my mind that I would visit her today.
