April 18, 1933 From Jongno 3-ga, Keijo. To Guest. I received your letter well. I am glad to hear your life in Tokyo is somewhat comfortable. Given your temperament, a foreign place wouldn't have been easy, but it seems you've grown quite accustomed to it. I am still staying here. The room you spoke of remains the same. However, it has been a bit noisy outside lately, so I find myself keeping the door closed more often for no reason. You said the house is large. If so, wouldn't it be good to leave the doors open occasionally? Thoughts will surely feel lighter if the wind can pass through. You said the doors were heavy. That is likely because you do not open them often. Anything kept closed for a long time does not open easily. Spring in Keijo is indeed in full bloom, just as you said. The streets are crowded, and every teahouse is incredibly noisy. If you were here, you would surely have grown tired of it, but I am finding that such noise isn't so bad. How is spring there? Did you walk in that garden today as well? — Jongsu
