The next day, and another day in being single man and no friends to speak. Hiro doesn't count since he is the only thing close to family that I have. Just like Kenzie would say just because you're the dumpee doesn't mean you should go moping around dumping on other people. There might be other relationships in the future, but for now I am moving on one day at a time.
Called this Alistar this morning and no answer on his end for several minutes. Maybe he is busy on this day so today is a freebie. Left the house and went to the arcade then encountered someone there with the name Aries like the zodiac goat. We chatted for a bit and apparently she was new to this town's arcade too. Nothing else to write for the rest of the day.

The morning didn't turn out like I wanted and encounter...no, shouldn't talk about it in this journal. Spent some valuable time with Hiro. On the long road of recovery from that break-up and negative emotions of my life. Between you and me though, I created a tunnel, not going to see what point A and B are though. After Hiro started taking his nap, I did some art related projects around downtown.

The last couple of days was spent with Hiro out in the public. Didn't matter who was staring, they were probably jealous anyways. Moved on from that swimming promise, I should teach myself or pay an professional sometime in the future. Going to paint this town, street by street which I did yesterday and Hiro got to help out by leaving paint paw prints everywhere on people's property. People love baby animals especially the cute ones. As for Valentine's day, I'm not going out since this holiday is for lovers and people who have friends invited over to do stuff. Kenzie and I are going to video chat anyways. Bachelor business partners have to stick together after all. Originally I was supposed have a sushi date with Roy that we had planned, but that's all in the past though.

On Valentine's day did as I planned and did a video chat with Kenzie. Glad he is doing well over in home country. I told him how I felt about him and he felt the same way. He is as close to having a brother of my own. Marriage is obviously not an option when no one in this town is interested in you that way.

Went to the hospital a few days after the holiday for my health check-up with my doctor. Got meds for my headaches and now I'm looking for a vet for Hiro. Still waiting for a phone specifically the one attaining to background check for that job I applied for several days go. Spent some time around town and got a little drinking on and found a place to rent a room for me and brother spend the night at near the beach for next month. Going back the next day to make the reservation when the place is not busy. Also tomorrow is the first working at the hotel in the upper part of town.

Made the reservation at the beach hotel as planned then headed off to work afterwards. I was a little nervous at first, but that all melted away once things got started. Things became boring towards the end of the shift, need to do something about that. After work hung out with Hiro at the park and did something mischievous at our old district. Went to the museum by myself and that is all for this day.

Second day of work brought along a book for when things aren't busy. Ate lunch outside of the hotel and nothing else happened at work. Spend time at the park with my lovely kitten and that's all for the day. Would have like to learn how to swim, but the guy, Alistair never called back. I will just have to move on to be taught by a professional then.

Third day of work went on to be uneventful and relaxed at the park with Hiro. Hangout at the gaming place called Mushroom Kingdom, and its been a while since I have last visited the place. Won myself a toy for Hiro and got some pretty high scores on some of the games at the place. Brought a piece of gum from the candy store and got a freebie candy in return. Made a giant sand castle near the undersea tunnel before relaxing and eating that candy near it.

Today I was called in by the police to do a public service to clear up a charge. There probably aren't any of other known artists in town besides its free publicity for me and the kitten. I didn't have anything else to do over the weekend, best to take a jacket just in case and Hiro of course to keep me company. Makes you wonder if I just imagined those people I met in the past.
This town is the best place to feel like an outsider and more alienated than anywhere else in this world I remember living at. The police was just the tip of the iceberg to the revelation for this writer. People notice you more of a suspicious person or troublemaker than they do anything else in this ever depressing world. Worsen than a roller-coaster, then again never been on one so I couldn't possibly compare. Haven't met anyone who comes to understanding what I'm going through in this town and doubt I ever will. People won't notice your suffering unless you try to publicly kill yourself like I have in the past on the beach. Otherwise you might as well as not exist in this world, this is all just purgatory before the real judgement happens.
The only light at the end of the tunnel for me is Kenzie and Hiro. That maybe there is something still left in this world worth not destroying with what I'm capable of. There is so much more going on with me that no one has attempted to find out. Such a person, might not even exist and soulmates are just made of fairy tales for open-minded people to fall for.

Morning jog, breakfast, feed Hiro, and to the park with Hiro. Nothing else happened and for once I am looking forward to work tomorrow. Hanged around the house doing whatever I felt like for the rest of the day.

Morning jog, breakfast, feed Hiro, and to the park with Hiro and work before the park for the couple of weeks that part of the routine hasn't change. After all of that, for the last couple of weeks have been swimming lessons in the evening time and handed over the feline figurines for those days to the man. Today, two days after the holiday of March after a half of day of work I'm supposed to meet up with Kenzie at the park. Let aside days for vacation ahead of time from work.
The meeting up at the park was a successful, chatting just isn't the same as doing it in person. The three of us made to the hotel and checked on in then settle in the hotel room. Ended up watching a marathon of an old show on the tv in the room and only came out for dinner. Expectations for the food wasn't high, but it wasn't better than the food back at work and I can cook better.
The outside of the place really does look like it is more situation for mountainous area. No comment on the staff and no real complaint about here because none of what this place lacks is going to deter me from my focus on Hiro and Kenzie.
Decided to wait on the surprise of mine the next day before we have to check out of the hotel. We all slept on the same bed on top of the cover with our own pillows.

Time for the surprise this morning and I'm sure Kenzie will be pleased about it. And he was indeed impressed by it and we even raced some in the pool until it was time go. Staying at a hotel was supposed was supposed to be temporary and didn't have to talk anyone who wasn't Kenzie the who time there. Returned the key I had originally made reservations and had gotten the reminder from with the dark hair and glasses. I don't plan to go back to it because it is supposed to be a one time thing. Plus if I ever have to look for a place to stay at temporarily I would choose to camp out than to stay indoors. Only thing good about the place was pool and the allowing of pets and that is all. Don't plan on writing reviews about the hotel online because I don't indulge. Also neither me nor Kenzie spoke of the hotel after we left, but I don't there is any need to speak of the hotel experience. Haven't yet to encounter any one of past ever since Kenzie's arrival and I doubt I ever will because it has been going that way for a long time now.
Have some plans in mind to fill in time slots and I hope there will be a lot of fun with no interruptions from other people.

As soon as we returned to my place yesterday we spent the rest of the day and got quite merry with the liquor. Good thing neither of us own a vehicle and we are aware of our limit.
Got up bright and earlier and together we jogged around the district like back in our home country. He has been fun to be around like old times and glad to have picked him as my business partner.
We will be going to skating rink this morning then to park with Hiro for an afternoon picnic.
Had our picnic at the park as planned and we were there for pretty much late into the afternoon. Made the fishing equipment together then headed to the island with Hiro to do the fishing. Ate what we caught for dinner on the beach of that island then headed afterwards. Slept in the same bed like back at the hotel for this night.

Kenzie cooked breakfast today with my supervision and I think he has done well for someone who used to warm-up leftovers. We had a bit of competition at the bowling alley and I won it. Kenzie, Hiro and me headed over to the island today sort of giving our a tour of the place. No one was around as usual and a lot better than the park at times too then headed back to the house afterwards.

Today is the last day of Kenzie visit and the last thing we're doing together is exploring the underwater caves. I've become a reliable, fun, and responsible adult, no thanks to labeling, quick to judge and disillusion town.
Had some fun time in the underwater caverns and spent pretty much most of the day in there. After we showered, we drank some wine with dinner in the kitchen ending the day then escorted him to his late night transportation to help with carrying his luggage. I already miss my bro, wish end of summer would reach here sooner.
