Day 17

New nephew day! Of all the days to forget my phone.

My favorite Chinese restaurant has reopened as a different one, and I ate there today for the first time. Not much had changed; the lobby was rearranged, the food was a little different.

But Kadek wasn’t there with her happy smile when I walked in. Omang didn’t wave across the room or stop to talk about the book I’m reading. Jay didn’t bring my Dr. Pepper without having to ask. The new waiters are great, but they don’t do things like Omang and Jay. It's just not the same.
