<Huh? Yuki...?>

<I hardly ever see you at this time.

Don't you usually still have cram school during days off?>

<I already went.

They didn't give us many assignments either, so I was able to finish everything early.>

<I see. Then, can we talk about your lyrics? I have some questions...>

<Oh, sorry... That must be my grandma. I'll be right back.>

<Okay.>

<Hello, grandma?

Is everything okay?>

<Yes, I'm okay too. I feel fine.

Yes, I've been having plenty to eat.>

<Huh? Have I been getting sick? No, not even a cold.>

...

<Yes. I'm okay, really...

Please be mindful of your own health too. Anyway, I need to go.>

<Sorry about that, Yuki...

Anyway, where were we?>

<I don't mind...

But you forgot to mute yourself, K.>

<Huh? Oh, again, I'm sorry...

But to be fair, she usually calls to see how I'm doing.>

<It's okay, K. You don't need to apologize.>

<She must care about you very much...>

<I live alone and collapsed once already...>

<Fortunately, she seems much more at ease now that I have a housekeeper coming over to check up on me...>

<You two can't live together...?>

<Unfortunately, no...>

<She's been feeling much better lately, so she hasn't had to stay at the hospital as much as before...>

<But I have a feeling that trying to take care of me would be too much for her.>

<I hate to say it, but I wouldn't be able to focus on composing if that were to happen.>

<Which is why I plan on living alone for the foreseeable future. She even agreed to it after discussing this matter with her.>

<I see...>

(She has Ms. Mochizuki to look after her now, so she'll at the very least eat right...)

<Still, K, I think you should make better use of your room.>

<Huh?>

<You have sheet music strewn across the floor and your desk, as well as all the notes you crumpled up and tossed. I also remember seeing a box of instant noodles just lying around.>

<Oh, um... That's actually there because it's in a convenient spot for me...>

<Isn't that a sign of being a hoarder...?>

<Uh...>

<Also, you should open your window from time to time since air purifiers are only capable of so much.>

<R-Right...

Okay, I'll try doing that.>

<Thank you for showing so much concern for me, Yuki.>

<Huh...?>

(Concerned...?)

(This counts as being concerned about someone...?)

<...>

<Hey... Yuki, you there?

Hello? Anybody home?>

<Huh...? Sorry, yes?>

<Ugh...

I was asking if you could take a look at the rough sketches I just sent over.>

<Okay, I will.>

<You feeling all right, Yuki?

It's not like you to space out like that.>

<No, I feel fine, I think...>

<Hmm... Are you hungry at all?

K just left to grab a quick bite.>

<Oh, I didn't know...>

<I knew it. You missed all of that too...>

<Did something happen...?

Maybe we can help if something's bothering you...>

<I told K this earlier today...>

<Interesting. You showed genuine concern for K...>

<Does that really count as being concerned...?>

<I mean, it does, doesn't it...?>

<Not really sure, but I say it does.>

<This is just my guess, Yuki, but you want K to stay healthy, right...?>

<Healthy...?>

<Yeah, she's probably fine now, but a part of me is still worried considering how she had to go to the hospital once already.>

<I get what you mean since K sort of reinforced that composing still takes top priority based on that story.>

(Do I want her to stay healthy because I want her to fulfill that promise...?)

<I have a better understanding now.

Thank you, Amia, Enanan.>

<All good. You're welcome♪>

<Anyway, can you look at my sketches now? You're the only one who hasn't yet, Yuki.>

<Okay...>

<Sorry, I'm back.

We're running a little late, but shall we get started?>

<Oh...>

<Can I ask you something before we do, K?>

<Yes?>

<Did you have enough to eat?>

<Yes, I just had dinner...

Why?>

<Nevermind.>

<Huh...?>

<Hahaha.>
