As he arrives the healer is already departing, he at first panicked and feared Emiko had suddenly died....but healer was smiling and so was the handmaidens who left the room as he arrived into room and relieved saw Emiko was alive, drinking tea. So he felt whatever ill happened had passed and that Emiko was alive (as smiling on death of daimyo's lover would had seen invitation be executed).<br/><br/>However something was going on as Emiko asked handmaidens leave and albeit she told she was fine and he should return to talks...her expression told otherwise. Takeda may be blunt in courtesy skills, but he is not blind nor stupid as he takes one spare chairs which could handle his bulk as he seated besides the bed and said; "No, I see there is something digging in your mind Emiko. Even your eyes would portray that even if you still had the mask on. What is it?" Takeda was wearing his full mask, but Emiko can imagine expression of his lips to be serious and worried, his gaze displayed as much. His large hand moved slowly comforting manner to her shoulder, gently squeeze it as he waited Emiko gather herself before replying.
