Question from the reader:
Is it about time to sleep? To help you sleep well, I’ll share an image of Asakura Minami.
A Moment Before Sleep
Recently, while returning home after finishing my part-time job, I found myself laughing at a message sent by a friend. He said, “I’ll send you an image of Asakura Minami to help you sleep well,” and
the image was so adorable that I couldn’t help but smile. It was a moment where I truly appreciated his sense of humor, especially with the slightly chubby depiction of Asakura Minami.
Sleepiness Accompanied by Laughter
The subsequent exchange of comments was amusing as well. When my friend replied, “Goodnight, Gu—it’s Itou Asako, isn’t it?” I burst out laughing. I never expected a connection from Asakura Minami to Itou Asako; I’m always impressed by his creativity. I remarked, “Looking at this makes me feel like I could sleep well,” and soon I actually started yawning. The drowsiness slowly crept in, and a pleasant drowsiness crossed my mind. In the midst of my busy daily life, I’m truly grateful to have friends who can soothe my heart like this.
Side Notes and Family Talk
My friend commented, “As expected from someone who studied ballet, what an impressive Y-balance!” and indeed, that flexibility is remarkable. It’s surprising to hear that his father and brother graduated from the University of Tokyo, and every time I hear family stories, I catch a glimpse of his background. Conversations with him range from silly topics to serious discussions, always enjoyable. Since I work part-time at a judicial scrivener’s office, we also touch on legal topics while updating each other on our lives. Occasionally, I talk too much about the law and bore him, but he always listens kindly.
How is Everyone Preparing for Sleep?
Now, as I prepare for sleep, I wonder how everyone else relaxes and drifts off. Some might listen to their favorite music, read a book, or even enjoy light banter with friends that calms the mind. I’d love to hear about everyone’s sleep routines and favorite relaxation methods in the comments. Goodnight, and sweet dreams!
