We were talking yesterday, and he was like,

Don't you get the feeling that things have changed? I mean, since doing Beijing. It's like you don't belong here anymore, even if it is technically home. People aren't the same, family's not the same, least of all friends. They don't understand us, and there's an unspoken, invisible gap now. Guess it's because we've changed, and they've changed, whether they admit it or not, in the time we were away. Beijing's changed us. I guess that's why we tend to stick together with the BJ gang. Cause we get each other, we know what is was like in Beijing, we feel what it's like here. That's why we're so bonded, simple as that.
And then we just sat there, waiting for the traffic light to turn green.

I miss Beijing.
