I see...

So, despite being physically healthy, you still couldn't taste anything?

*Nod*

I was told that it was very likely a psychological manifestation of the stress I was experiencing...

Stress, huh...?

Then, we should take our time and slowly ease the burden on your mind...

I'll try finding a good clinic or hospital...

Okay...

Please, have some tea.

Ah, thank you.

Oh, this aroma. Is this...?

The lavender tea you brought over the other day. It has a very nice aroma to it.

Ah, I had a feeling...

It's supposed to be quite soothing, so I hope you get a chance to drink it during breaks and such.

Thank you.

...

That reminds me...

There's something I need to give you, Mafuyu.

Give me...?

It's this.

Huh...?

This...laptop...

Yes, it came back the other day from repairs. It was the one you were using before, right?

...

*Nod*

Thank you...

Thank you for having me over again today.

Please continue looking after Mafuyu for me, Ms. Yoisaki.

Yes, of course.

And feel free to contact me if anything comes up, Mafuyu.

Okay...

Um, Dad...?

Hm?

See you again next week...

...!

Yes, I'll see you then.

Thank goodness...

(She seems to be doing much better now compared to before.)

(I'm glad we managed to find out the cause of her inability to taste anything.)

(But... Now that we do...)

(For Mafuyu's sake, I want to improve the current situation as fast as possible...)

(That being said...)

(I still know very little about her...)

(I had no idea that she couldn't taste anything or that she was suffering so much mentally until just recently.)

(And I still don't have a clear picture as to why she was feeling so stressed...)

(For the sake of her health, I need to learn more about her.)

(And in order to do that...)
