[ Yoimiya's injuries weren't anywhere near as severe as Ajax's and thus, shortly after their conversation, she's discharged from the hospital. After what felt like forever, she's finally free to go on and live a normal life for a few weeks, free from eldrich horror monsters, free from the terror that is the Nizhnii company, and free from dealing with Ajax.

Being away from him should feel like a relief. There's no excuse for his actions, the role he plays within the corporation is reprehensible and she's better off staying far away from someone who kidnaps people for a living. But try as she might, she couldn't stop thinking about him, her thoughts kept wandering right back to him, wondering about his recovery and unable to stop fretting over his condition. It's strange, the logical thing to do would be to forget all about him and move on with her life, she rationalizes it's all thanks to this mysterious bond linking the two of them, but she isn't unhappy.
Because of how distressing the whole ordeal had been, Yoimiya was given an extended break to mentally recuperate. Aside from shopping for necessities or grabbing food, she hasn't been outside much after experiencing a living nightmare. Day after day, she checks her phone, waiting for his message with bated breath. This is just a mutual agreement, they need to work together in order to get the police and the Nizhnii corporation off their back but even so, Yoimiya just wants to know if he's okay.

About fifteen minutes later, he'll receive a response. ]
Hey. Glad to hear you're feeling better. I sure can. When is a good time for you to meet up?
[ From the bottom of her heart, she means it. Although she's still a little upset and not sure how to feel about him, she's so beyond happy to hear back from him and know that he's made a full recovery. ]
