Selfish Joanna

Mugi walks past you to take an important call at the telephone on Dudley's counter. He asks the person on the other end if they are coming home, but from Mugi's response, it doesn't sound like that is going to happen.

As he leaves, Dudley asks if that was Joanna on the telephone. Mugi confirms that it was his daughter. Mei has been waiting for her mom to come home for what seems like forever. Though Dudley understands that Joanna must have her reasons, Mugi wonders what could be so important that Joanna would rather stay there than live with Mei.

Dudley remembers the last time that Joanna had returned home. She dropped Mei off at Mugi's house and then left without any explanation. Yes, Mugi acknowledges that his daughter has always been like that, as she would keep things to herself so as to not worry Mugi. This time he can't forgive her, as she won't give him the reason why she left Mei behind. Mei is lonely and misses her mother! Talking about the situation has made Mugi rather irate.

Dudley understands how Mei would need her mom at this age. Mugi explains that she had called Joanna to ask her to return, but couldn't get an answer out of her. Mugi cheers up a little bit once he determines that he's going to go home and make Mei's favorite food.
