[Mami's lawyer, Mitsurugi Satoru wiped at his brow.]
...Ahh, Mami-san...It's about your Uncle and Aunt, you see...
[Mami made a face.]
- Are they making trouble again? I'm not going to give them even more of my parent's money, Mitsurugi-san - They got a big enough chunk of it when my parents passed away! Where'd all that money go, anyway?
[The lawyer sighed.]
...Oh, I do understand how you feel, but they've been apparently trying to get legal guardianship of you again, and...
[Mami stared at him.]
...My legal guardian is still my Grand Aunt Miyoko, correct?
[The lawyer nodded, his head bobbing.]
- Oh, yes, yes, but - Tomoe Miyoko-san is a very old lady in her 80s now, you see, and though her mind is still quite sound, from what I gathered the last time we talked...
[And then, he wiped his brow again.]
...Ahem. Mami-san - It might be worth trying to give your Uncle and Aunt at least some of the money they keep saying they need, I think?
[Mami sighed, then.]
- It might be worth trying to pay them off if it'll stop them from causing us trouble, you mean?
...That would be the gist of it, yes.
[Mami nodded, then, and asked her lawyer to set up an appointment with her uncle and aunt. So how much money was this going to cost her now, anyway?]
