Friends' words
I heard the following words from a friend twice recently: "I miss you all". This particular friend has always been a bit distant and I've always felt difficulty in establishing some sort of connection such as the way I do with other friends. Considering how we have hung out together for years and the friendship still feels shallow, I was surprised, yet moved, to hear those words from this friend. Maybe sometimes, it takes a long time to melt someone so that it becomes easier to get closer to. Maybe it is due to the vulnerable period where changes are everywhere and nothing is what was once familiar, and that's when friends are most missed?
Today I heard something from another friend that sounded exceptionally good to my ears. She said she is actually starting to like bubble tea! I don't remember having a friend who doesn't tsk tsk or who doesn't give off the air of disapproval whenever I buy bubble tea before him/her. It feels like the drink is something I like to get to make myself a happier person but to other people, it may seem like some sort of rationale that's beyond their comprehension. Therefore, imagine my delight when someone actually expresses delight in the drink whose fame has spread even to the USA. Finally, someone shares my appreciation for bubble tea.
