Hearing no response, Yue slid the door open wide enough to let her in but she remained outside. "Kouta-san?" She wasn't entirely sure what to call him anymore so she stuck to a general suffix. "Why haven't you eaten?" Yue asked, gesturing to the tray next to her. It was quite possible that he felt unwelcome and had probably missed the attendant so she picked it up and set it on the wall next to the door of his room. 

"I wanted to apologize. May I come in?" Even though entering without spoken permission was acceptable, Yue couldn't overlook her manners and it had become something of a second naure. Her hesitancy and formality were tiring to most, if not everyone she conversed with, even herself. It was much more frustrating than one would suspect of her, but her docile nature didn't allow for her to displease Isao and consequently the House.

"Please," he said plainly. "For what do you need to apologize?"

Taking a seat near the door, Yue stared into her lap. "For getting caught up in this mess. And for the way my House has been treating you." She didn't blame herself for what had happened; that was beyond her actions, an accident. While the medics had done a good job of healing him, and Yue was relieved to see he was alright, she wasn't so sure about the attendant nor anybody else. "You saved me several times yet Isao-sama mostly blames you, even though I told him what had happened."

"He may have his opinions," he said again plainly. He didn't look up to see Yue in her mourning garb as he still mourned for them himself.

"They're not fair." she replied, her voice losing some of its airy quality. There was a layer of concern under her words which was rather uncharacteristic from someone who was only considered as an 'acquaintance' of sorts. After a long moment of contemplation, Yue spoke, "Why doesn't it bother you, Kouta-san?"

"It's not for me by which to be bothered," he said simply. "Perhaps he needs me for something," he lied hopingly.

"You do know he's not going to let you out, right?" Yue finally raised her eyes towards him. "I think of you as a brother and I don't know since when, probably after all that happened in the Human World but I tried telling Isao-sama that you and I are practically brother and sister by now, but he would not listen. I know his reasons for keeping you here and I'm afraid they won't do anyone any good."

"Yes, we are close. However, we cannot allow that come between your duties and mine." He was a touch solemn in determining this.
