Who are you?

Part 7

It wasn't that hard to finally get the man to let her in. Stubbornness was a treat all good medics had in common. So when he finally let her in, she made sure to take note of her surroundings. Inside, the house was by no means clean, but it was an acceptable condition.

There was no trash or heavy dust, but it was clear he wasn't someone who could take care of the place regularly. When they entered, there was an open area that seemed to be the living room and kitchen.

There were a few cabinets, a fridge and stove, and a sink in a corner with a small table that had two chairs. There was also an old, worn-out sofa to the side. There were 3 doors. One was probably the bathroom, the other the bedroom and the last one was a study. She could tell that it was a study since the door was open, and she could see the shelf of books and books and papers lying on a desk. She followed the man to the kitchen area.

"Well, do you want some tea?" he asked as he headed to the stove.

"That won't be necessary for now. I may have to recommend some herbal tea for your condition, so I will make the tea after I'm done with the diagnosis." She said and pointed for him to sit on the chair.

He sighed and walked to the chair. He didn't seem to be one for small talk, so she didn't make any conversation. She just used her diagnosis Jutsu and told him about what she found.

She wasn't a miracle worker, but there were definitely things she could do to help him. She could help him with the hygiene. Then she knew a medicine that could help with the joint problems and reduce the pain and inflammation.

She could also use her chakra to reduce some of the already there damage. He also seemed to have some digestive problems, which were easy to solve. Most of his problems could, in fact, be solved with regular medication.

He had a small infection, which she had medicine for, but she had to visit him for a few days to monitor it. Overall, it wasn't something impossible for a medic.

She just had to check again with the shop in the village and set a regular delivery schedule for his medication. He was very healthy for his age. There was also a mold problem in the house, which she had wanted to take care of before leaving.

She told him all of this and then took out some of the medicine she had with her to make him the medicine needed for the infection. She made it into a powder form that could be consumed as tea since the man told him he hated pills.

While the tea was brewing, she started cutting his hair and beard. She also started asking him questions about his diet to see what needed to be changed.

It was nighttime when she got back to the inn. She was so tired. His personal hygiene was not as bad as she thought, but with his limited mobility, it was hard to help him. But she managed to give him a proper bath and a bottle of her sleeping drug to help him sleep better at night. He just had to take a spoonful of it, and he would be dead asleep.

She also did some of the initial healing with chakra. By the end of it, they were both exhausted. She took a quick shower in the inn herself and went to bed.

The next few days were much the same. She would visit Yuki in the morning, do a healing session, help clean his house as much as she could, and leave near sundown. She also started doing some repairs to the house to make sure it wouldn't get destroyed.

She liked to think he was warming up to her. He told her some stories about his younger days. He used to be a hunter. He liked going to the woods and hunting all sorts of animals. But his age finally caught up to him, so he got this little house and field, trying to make a life for himself.
