Small protection on a hot day
Even before I open the curtain in the morning, the other side of the window is shining white. The voice of cicadas shakes the screen door and has a heat gradually to the kitchen floor. I take out the pot of barley tea from the refrigerator and drop the ice into the glass. Only the sound of ringing is cool.
Before drying the laundry, wrap a wet towel around my neck. When the cool cloth touches my skin, my breath deepens a little. The sandals on the balcony are already hot, so I walk while looking for a place with my toes. Let's dry it quickly. With that in mind, I shake my white shirt.
Before noon, the wind of the air conditioner quietly crosses the living room. Check the temperature so that it does not get too cold and change the direction of the fan a little. Miso soup is turned in the evening and somen is served during the day. There are days when I want to shorten the time I stand in the kitchen.
I think shopping is done after the sun goes down. Arrange hats and parasols at the entrance and put a water bottle in a bag. Don't overdo it on a day like this. Saying that in my heart, I drink another sip of cold barley tea.
The heat does not go away. Still, with the sound of ice, wet towels, thin shadows, and a little early preparation, I manage to get through today. I think this is also my summer daily life.
