Lesson 172 You don’t have to worry about the ryokan
洋子、直樹、由美が画廊近くの喫茶店で話し合っています。
I drew our family portrait
Yoko: I guess I’m the only one who didn’t know Yumi would be here. And that she and David already knew each other.
Naoki: Sorry, Yoko. I….
Yoko: I understand. I knew I had to speak with Yumi eventually. I’m thinking of changing my attitude. What about you, Yumi?
Yumi: Yes, me too.
Yoko: Where’s Sho?
Naoki: He want to explore Tokyo with Mari and David.
Yoko: I wanted them to hear this, too. You don’t have to worry about the ryokan. I’ve thought of a better way to keep it open.
Yumi: What’s that?
Yoko: You don’t need to know. Yumi, please return whenever you can. I need someone I can really argue with.
Yumi: That’s true.
