Maebashi Witches episode 6 brief recap

Titled "Chocolate Cake With Whole Round Cake", the episode began with the girls fulfilling a customer's wish. But Choco Mitsumata was noticeably withdrawn, tired, and unmotivated. Kyoka takes notice of this and seeks to understand why she is in such a state. Thus, given her natural leadership qualities and awareness of the importance of camaraderie, she decides to take action.
But Kyoka isn't the only one to see this, as Yuina also takes note of it. The latter approaches Kyoka about it, and after a little discussion, they decide to throw Choco a surprise party. During their discussion, Kyoka's reason for becoming a witch is revealed - she wants to help others as much as she can. Moving on, they enlisted the help of the other two, Azu and Mai, to plan the party.
The four of them discussed what they knew of Choco and were contemplating what kind of gift to give her. They ultimately came to a decision, and Kyoka offered to bring the cake, snacks, and drinks since her aunt owned a patisserie. After finishing the talk with the girls, there was a glimpse into Kyoka's life. Her older sister brought something to her and spoke of her father wanting to see her.

Not much of Kyoka's curious backstory was revealed. But from whatever was, she seemed to be under some kind of internal pressure. Furthermore, she seemed to find shelter in an anime character. The next day, Choco and she were distributing pamphlets again. When done, Choco mentioned it was her birthday and wanted to use MaPo to get a cake.
With the surprise at hand, the latter got flustered and urged her to come back to the shop. Upon returning, the others surprised her with two cakes, a big chocolate cake and one that looked like a beautiful fruit cake, accompanied by a song composed originally by Yuina. That was the pink-haired girl's gift to Choco, the composition of which she felt brought them all closer.
Seeing all this brought tears to Choco's eyes, and she was beyond happy at the surprise. The other girls were all smiles, something that had been rare to see, given that they had been busy adjusting to the shop and doing magic. The episode ended with Kyoka stepping forth and handing a small gift to Choco, wishing her appropriately this time.
What to expect from Maebashi Witches episode 7?(speculative)

Maebashi Witches episode 7 will pick up exactly where the previous installment left off, i.e., the celebrations were cut short due to a customer entering. However, that wasn't even the most surprising part. It was an old lady who walked through the entrance of the shop, and Choco was the first to react, sharply dismissing her under her breath with harsh words.
Maebashi Witches episode 7 will delve into who this lady is and what caused such a reaction from the otherwise cheerful and happy Choco Mitsumata. In other words, it will be the true beginning of Choco's character arc.
