Crossed Katanas (KNY)

Chapter 5: 🦋🌊New Couple🌊🦋

The next day morning...

Iguro and Kanroji are at the dining room eating breakfast prepared by Aoi with Shinobu. The three start to have a chat.

Iguro: "Kocho, you seem happy even after..."

Kanroji: "Iguro! Don't say that. It hurts a person. But you make a fair point, where'd the happiness come from? Why aren't you... never mind."

Both of them felt guilty for reminding not only Shinobu about her sister's death, but also themselves. Everyone appeared gloomy. However, Shinobu replied with a smile on her face.

Shinobu: "I mean... I was quite sad... but the good part is I'm married now."

*Silence*

Iguro: "Wha-"

Kanroji: "WHAT!!?"

Shinobu: "Yea-"

Kanroji: "Really!? With who? Who's the lucky man?"

Shinobu: "Take a guess. He's a Hashira"

Kanroji: "Rengoku?"

Shinobu: "Nope."

Iguro: "Himejima?"

Shinobu: "Nope."

Iguro: "Actually now that I think about it, none of them seem to be compatible with you."

Shinobu: Is that an insult to Giyuu? *angry*

Kanroji: "Just tell us!"

Iguro: "Either way, any of the result will surprise us."

Shinobu: "It's Giyuu."

Kanroji: "I told you before that you guys looked good together! But now you're married!? when's the wedding! Did he give anything to you."

Shinobu: "Well he gave me a kiss." I don't want a ring or a necklace though.

Iguro: "Since when? I thought Giyuu was annoyed with you. This is more surprising than the possibility of you dating Muichiro."

Shinobu had several blood vessels coming out from her forehead, her face was all red with steam coming out from her ears.

Shinobu: "Are you saying that we're not meant to be together!?"

Kanroji: "Yeah! Don't be rude!"

Iguro: "Oh please, I'm sure that I won't have the worse reaction if you tell the rest."

Shinobu: *sighs* "Anyway, no, we didn't plan a wedding."

Kanroji: "Leave it to me. I'll make sure it will be the best thing that ever happened in your life!"

Shinobu: "You'll have to ask the groom for permission, knowing him I don't think Tomioka-san would want o-"

Iguro: "Oh great, she's gone."

And just like that, Kanroji left and ran to find Giyuu. She eventually found him in a room with Tanjiro, Rengoku and Urokodaki, all of whom were drinking tea. 

Kanroji: "Giyuu! I heard that you got married with Shinobu. Can I plan a wedding for you guys!?"

Tanjiro, Urokodaki and Rengoku were caught of guard by this. Nut Giyuu still had his depressed looking face.

Tanjiro: "Oh! Congratulations! But I've never heard of you two dating before."

Giyuu: "It's a complicated relationship. You'll understand when you grow up."

Urokodaki and Rengoku: Well that was unexpected.

Giyuu: "You'll have to ask Shinobu for that."

Kanroji: "But she told me to ask you."
