Phew... Why don't we take a quick break?

Okay.

Would you like something to drink, MEIKO?

Thank you, Shizuku.

Wait, huh? Just ordinary tea...?

Yes, jasmine tea.

My mother said she received some good batch of tea leaves, so I tried brewing some of it.

It's very good and has a nice, relaxing aroma to it.

You're right. It's so soothing!

(She surprised me with miso soup the other day, but it's like I'm more surprised when she brings something more ordinary at this point.)
