For the first time since I moved to Japan two years ago, a couple of Japanese people initiated conversation with me. I was listening to music in my headphones and working on an app icon at a Skytree café, when a couple stopped to chat while they were walking by.
Sorry for interrupting. We love your shirt!!me
おっ!ありがとう!It’s made from tenugui.cute older couple
Really!me
Yeah!
This is such a normal thing to happen back in the States. But I think it really is the first time someone’s said anything to me before I spoke with them.
Thank you, cute older couple.
