[Yujin wouldn't be a professional if he couldn't navigate a little awkwardness at work. Even so, the dynamic in the infirmary as they get back to station routine is... awkward, understated. What's important for the sake of all the orbers is keeping the peace, not his own feelings. If the apology is coming, he reasons, he'll accept it; if it isn't, well, it'll show him the kind of man Dr. McCoy really is.
Not to say he's not greatly relieved when the man meets him with a deep bow and an apology. A sincere one.
But it's also very Japanese, which is a little less than expected. Somebody gave him advice. There's a moment where Yujin hesitates, mulling that over-- McCoy going the extra mile on this is as powerful a statement on his character as any-- but from the obvious, it's not immediately obvious whether he'll accept the sentiment.]
...It's all right. The orbs had affected you, Dr. McCoy It would be remiss of me, Dr. McCoy, to place all the blame on your head.
[And then he bows in return, a slight smile on his face.]

I'm sorry to have doubted you, even a little.
