Caution with the hot springs temperature, please! part 4

"Are you alright Sera?"

"This is nothing mister Ryu, I can still help you"

"I admire your resolve, but we can't have you bleeding on the food, please call Anne"

Ryu commanded and Sera complied without showing any trace of her disappointment. It wasn't just the fact that her clumsiness brought trouble for Ryu, but also she couldn't help but notice how fast he asked for Anne's help when he could have asked anybody else. Of course that wasn't exactly true because Bob's hands were too big for dealing with such small vegetables, Luke couldn't touch food without turning it into inedible trash and Risa, well, he wanted to keep his distance from her as much as possible.

"What's up?"

"Here, please peel this potatoes"

"Is that why you called me? seriously? I thought you ran into trouble or something, I can smell a faint trace of blood..."

Anne said sniffing the air.

"Is that a skill!?"

"No, I just have a keen sense of smell I guess"
