Saying that Angu Ogu made a bitter face.
I've lived in Japan for so long that I can't really relate to that sentiment.

According to the guidelines, making holes for thumbtacks should have been okay.
But in practice, it's better to avoid it.

I can feel the difference in the approach to homes between Japan and America in that regard.
It seems like they assume that people will be invited and seen, or they want to show off.
<

They seem to have a strong preference for choosing and deciding things for themselves, or maybe it's more accurate to say they don't want others to decide for them.

Well, in Japan, there's a natural increase in new construction due to issues like earthquake resistance.
On the other hand, in America, remodeling extends the life of buildings, so there are many older buildings.
There are probably various other reasons as well.
Anyway, that's how it is.

A few days after Angu Ogu contacted the contractor, in front of my eyes, there was a deep bathtub and a toilet with a bidet.
It's still a unit bath, but it happened so quickly.
<
<
<

I intended to make a witty comment,
But Angu Ogu nodded vigorously.
Hey, that was supposed to be a joke…
<
<

Angu Ogu's expression turned slightly serious.
I straightened up and prompted him to continue.

Going by Japanese standards, it might feel expensive, but…
In reality, I don't know the market rate.
<<‘It depends on you'.>>
<
<
<
Indeed, it's quite severe.
The ‘freedom' comes with the ‘self-responsibility' as its price.
America might be the best country for those who have money or talent.
But in other cases…
Well, that's probably about suitability in the end.

I had a bad feeling and took a step back.
Something's strange.
Angu Ogu is breathing heavily.
What's going on!?
<
<>
<
<
<
<
<
Yes, I admit that I was still stuck in the mindset of living at my parents' house.
I can't believe it; ‘endure' meant that!?
<

<
<
<
Angu Ogu pouted, saying, "Muu~." Why are you the one who seems dissatisfied?
<
<<…N-No, it's definitely not going to work.>>
<
<
<
<!?!?!>>
Wait, that's for the event I didn't win the lottery for, right?
I thought I'd have to endure just watching the live stream…!
<<…W-Well, maybe just a bit…>>

I instinctively covered my mouth, but it was too late.
My words had slipped out.
Angu Ogu was grinning.
Oh no! I'm such an idiot!
