different monday

I deliberately missed church today.  Totally different from my previous Sundays - no nihongo mass, no lunch with Mina or Melissa, no window shopping in Sannomiya or malling in Blummer, cooking at the 6th floor kitchen and just lazing around my room. 
Tomorrow, Monday will also be different.  First week that I won't see Toshi and Yuto.  Wonder if they got around to reading The Little Prince book that I gave them as farewell gift?
