Ojisan was so happy to see me again! He was quite take with me from his last visit during the summer. But unfortunately, like I mentioned earlier, I’m going through my shy stage, known as hitomishiri (strange anxiety) in Japan. He so desperately wanted to hold me and play with me like he did 4 months ago, but I was not happy with the idea.



I felt bad because I know he meant well, but I only feel comfortable with Mommy and Daddy.
I eventually calmed down and let him carry me. He was so happy!


He is so sweet. I’ll try to stay calm the next time I see him and not cry. It should be fine as long as it is not a lot of time in between our meetings. (Foreshadowing)
