The scene now shifts to Mittelgebirge, another garden. The environment is completely different to that of Batavi. The garden was dominated by countless towering trees, whose dense branches often blocked the sunlight from reaching the ground. The inhabitants had learned to live under the shade, accepting long winters with little warmth from the sky.

That said, the garden provides them with extremely liveable living conditions. Villages are meticulously planned, including their trails. When it comes to the motorways, they have been maintained to world-class standards. They have wider lanes and higher speed limits, with no restrictions in some areas. The residents were known for their discipline. Every seed was planted at the right time, every path was carefully measured, and every task had its own place. Overall, the garden offers a similar standard of living to that in Batavi, except for the natural environment.

Thus, their working style is almost the same as in my new frontier. Nevertheless, my old teammate has been struggling to adapt to the new working environment. Unlike his local co-workers, staying until 10 pm has become normal; a few days a week, he remains until the middle of the night. That is much worse than in his old workplace.

He has become utterly drained and has lost the energy to keep working there.

โ€˜What on the earth is going on? Something is wrong. I have to do something to improve the situation. I cannot afford to endure the current situation, either mentally or physically.โ€™

โ€˜No time to spend with my family!โ€™

โ€˜Help me!โ€™.

Upon hearing about his difficulties, I called him.

โ€˜Hi, itโ€™s me. How are you?โ€™

โ€˜Thank you for calling. Iโ€™m glad to hear from you.โ€™

โ€˜ You seem to be struggling with your current role, donโ€™t you?โ€™

โ€˜To be honest, yes. I do not know what is wrong. I have tried to make some improvements, but nothing worked. I feel as if I have been trapped in a quagmire. The more I struggle, the deeper I sink into the quagmire. If you can, help me!โ€™

โ€˜ I see. From your voice, I can imagine how depleted you are emotionally and physically. However, unfortunately, I do not have any suggestions right now to improve your situation. The only thing I can do is to encourage you to find a way out of this difficult situation. 

In any case, take time to relax and forget about your duty for a while. In particular, try to find something similar to the leaves beside the stream in the garden where we had lived together. They taught us an important lesson: sometimes the best remedy is not found in working harder, but in stepping away from the burden for a while.โ€™

โ€˜Really appreciate your call. Your advice is great. Luckily, I am going to take a week-long holiday starting tomorrow. I go to a forest and try to find the leaves.โ€™

โ€˜ That is a good idea. I hope you will recover soon. Feel free to call me whenever you need someone to talk to.โ€™
