Sakura quickly made her way to the door through all the papers. Her office had somehow become more cluttered than normal. She blamed neglectful friends who came to her place of work and then ignored her existence. She had actually found herself quite frazzled as of late. She suppossed it didn't much matter how her office appeared, however, as this particular patient was blind. She'd been browsing his chart before he showed up.

She slowly opened the door so as not to startle the man. "Hello! You're Akira, right? Please, do come in. Do you need any help?" She held out her hand to lead him through the mess that was her office and living space at Malaise.

He smiled when he heard the new voice and looked towards her. Akira didn't bother with sunglasses to hide his eyes, even though he'd been told that the heavy scarring almost completely hiding the pale blue they'd once been was creepy.

"I should be fine, but I'll let you know if I need help." He stepped inside slowly, using his hands and legs to find out where things nearby were to avoid crashing into anything. His way of doing things might not be what some of his old doctors liked, but it make him feel more independent.

Sakura nodded, more to herself than her patient since he couldn't see the gesture anyway. She could understand the man's need for independence, but she was understandably nervous about his falling due to the mess that was around her office. If it was clean, she probably would have felt better. She made a mental note to keep her office tidy from now on- or at least to keep things off the floor.

"If you could take a seat wherever, we can begin," she said kindly, taking her own seat and picking up Akira's chart.

He walked slowly until his hand brushed against a chair. Akira sat down slowly. There wasn't much need for people to worry about him, but he could understand the reason for their concern.

"The most recent notes in my file should be from the day I was discharged from my old hospital. That was just a few days ago, so this shouldn't take too long."
