First day in Japan - Feeling depressed and lonely

On his last day in England, he mourns an unfinished room and deceased father, grandparents, and cats before flying to Japan. After an uncomfortable eight-hour flight, he settles into a clean month-long Japanese Airbnb, noting amenities, privacy risks, and cozy potential. Hours later, he regrets coming, misses home and Mimo, lacks food, and worries about his wife's delayed, unexplained meeting.

A familiar Japan-arrival crash reappears: hoped-for freedom quickly becomes loneliness, instability, and suspicion.
