Yoko: A special family soup dish, just for you. It’s soup with seasonal vegetables. It’ll warm you up, and give you lots of energy.
Sho: Wow, thanks!
Yoko: Your grandfather taught me how to prepare it. I made it for Mari when she was studying for her exams.

Yoko: S…sorry?
Sho: Oh, you couldn’t hear me? Shall I say it again?
