Some of us have been here for up to six months. It might not be 'sticking around', but we're living here as well. It's sensible, to try and keep it as taken care of as possible.

[ Not that Aki necessarily goes out of his way that often to deal with the people here, or take care of them, but he does what he has to do. He's happy enough to do that, because he is living here - and it reminds him enough at home.

Glancing back over, he takes another long drag of his cigarette. ]

It's fine. Just like home for me.
