OK, so she is My Father's uncle's daughter, which makes those two cousins, which means she is my first cousin once removed. She is nice, for the most part. She has this weird tic where her right eye is closed most of the time, and she laughs at inappropriate moments, like all old Chinese people do. But she has never asked me about going back to school and she only has asked if I have a girlfriend only one time. Whether it's obliviousness or a respect for boundaries, I appreciate the non-prying.
I also have to say that she has not been as big a pain in the ass as I initially feared. I have felt I need to engage with her, ask her questions and even invite her to things out of the house. That kind of sucks seeing as she came just as the World Cup started. But it's been good, at least from my perspective; instead of needing to see if she wants to go somewhere in town, I have been able to go downtown to watch the soccer matches yesterday/Saturday, for example. That's because, surprisingly, my aunt and uncle have been ferrying her around time for the past few days. They've gone to the Megamall, the Sculpture Garden, and, get this, the bingo hall five minutes away from me that I have never heard of till last night's dinner. I have no idea how my aunt and uncle know her. But they have been doing all the sightseeing/escorting work I was afraid I would have to do.
Nevertheless, it's still kind of weird to have a fourth person living in the house. I have taken my bath towel and put it in my room as long as my first cousin once removed is here. I have to admit I still hold my nose whenever I take a shower after she does. And it's weird to see her undergarments just hanging on the towel rack. Oh, and I feel the urge to masturbate but I can't, because she's is in the room right next door.
I will still have to deal with this for a whole week. A whole week! But it's manageable. I dare say that I will miss her when she leaves.
