I have a papa who likes to make coffee with the coffee maker in his hotel room. Whenever I go to his room, he always makes some for us to drink together, but the other day, when I tried to use a coffee maker with another papa, I accidentally dispensed hot water only, and a huge amount of black mold came out. Even at nice hotels, it seems the coffee makers aren’t cleaned properly... Ever since I found that out, I haven’t wanted to drink it anymore (crying).

Would it seem unnatural to suddenly decline when a papa who enjoys making coffee and drinking it together asks me? What would be a good reason to give him from now on?
I’m Maezawa from the CEO’s Office, and I’ll answer this one too.
Thank you for your question.
> So even good hotels don’t thoroughly clean their coffee makers...?
If that’s the case, it wasn’t really a good hotel to begin with.
Actually, I think reputable hotels pay attention to details like that. Maybe a staff member happened to slack off, or perhaps what you thought was a nice hotel was really just an ordinary business hotel.
> What reason should I give for refusing from now on?
The other day, I went on a trip with a friend—just to clarify, a female friend.
When I accidentally ran only hot water through the coffee maker, I was shocked to see a lot of large black mold stains come out.
How about saying, “Why don’t we check inside first before making coffee?” Then you could inspect it and still drink the coffee if everything looks fine.
If you worry too much about things like this, you may become overly germ-conscious and eventually be unable to drink coffee anywhere outside your home. So I think it’s better not to dwell on it too much.
You don’t know what the inside of the coffee maker at a café looks like either, and the same goes for factories that make canned coffee.
If you start thinking that way, you’ll become so germ-conscious that you won’t be able to drink anything.
It’s probably best to have the mindset that people don’t die from a few germs.

Why not say, “I’ll make it today,” and accidentally run just hot water? If mold comes out, show it to your papa and say, “Oh no, that’s terrible!” If nothing comes out, simply make coffee and enjoy it together.
