[ Mao didn't think going back to life as usual would be as awkward as it's proving to be, but just going back to school like nothing happened, like he wasn't just somewhere completely else for a month, is unexpectedly unsettling. It's like he didn't even have time to unpack what happened before going back to his routine and as much as he'd like to just take refuge in that routine, the disconnect is making him antsy.
