Screeeech—thump...

The long hours of moving have finally come to an end. After about two hours, just as the movers were starting to look exhausted, we were finally able to get out of the vehicle.
The air isn't as good as where we used to live, but since we just hopped out of a rattling truck, let's just call it refreshing.

Miyagi | “おお…おめぇん家じゃなくて、おらん家でけぇ나, いいとこ借りたんべ。体育館にも近けぇんだっぺ？近けぇよ나?” (Whoa... our place is huge, we got a good spot. It's close to the gym, right? It's close, ain't it?)

The voice coming from the seat next to me is quite husky; he must have been sleeping. I told him I'd wake him up, but it seems he managed to get up on his own.
It's no easy feat for a massive seal-like guy to stretch inside a cramped truck. Sure enough, his fist went 'thump' right into the ceiling.
The elderly driver in the front let out a hearty laugh, so Miyagi just laughed it off before he even had a chance to complain about the pain.

In the meantime, the heavy wheels bumped over the curb and the door swung open with a rattle.

Miyagi | “おーい、はやく来んべ！家の空気入れ替えねぇと臭くなんだんべ！” (Hey, hurry up! If we don't air the place out, it's gonna stink!)

He hoisted luggage onto both shoulders and dashed into the villa before you could even stop him.

It's going to take a while.

The sweltering heat of summer hasn't arrived yet.
Just as I was thinking we picked a good day to move... he had already unlocked the door and was waving his hand wildly out the window.

Miyagi | “おーい、いつ上がって来んべ？運送屋のオヤジらが上げてくれんだんべ！”
(Hey, when are ya comin' up? The movers are gonna bring the stuff up!)

... Let's go up.
