"I'm really sorry for causing you so much trouble! How about I help you organize this treatment plan?" Ayajichi Shoubu, at heart, was not a bad person; her disdain and impatience had only been due to the earlier misunderstanding, but now that it was resolved, she wanted to make amends as best as she could.
