____________________

"I had went to see the Gojo kid with six eyes to see what the fuss was all about. It was the first and the last anyone was aware of my presence when I stood behind them"

Sunshine striking the tower tops forecasted a perfectly structured shadow over the grassy area of the estate. Hues of azure spread all across the sky with varieties of fluffy clouds. A warm a gentle breeze swarmed the surroundings causing serenity to showcase it's magic.

I rested my back on the trunk of Sakura Tree, situated at one corner of the gardens at Fujiwara Residency. Y/n stood beside me, holding the peony in her fragile hands and admiring the bright pink flower she plucked recently from her garden.

She agreed with my phrase,"Gojo kid is all over the place now. I have never seen such a controversial kid before. And what adds to his attitude is his unethical behaviour towards the guests."

A smirk formed on my face and looking up to her I said,"You aren't ever going to swear right?"

She inhaled the citrusy fragrance of the flower in her hand before placing it on my palm. She had her posture bend down a little so that her voice could be audible.

"Now tell me Toji, if this botan had even one or two petals worn out, won't it create a poor impression of the flower?"

Her liquid eyes, her mesmerising smile and her candied voice was enough to win any heart. I was brought back to reality when her slender fingers, tinted with a shade of salmon-pink at the knuckles, snapped at my face.

(Your charms never seize to leave me aghast)

Rising up from the ground and after dusting my black yukata, we both leisurely walked to the entrance. I stole a few glances and admired her countenance. We bowed in respect as we reached the starting point of the residency and I pushed on my way to Zenin's place.

Down the path of the residency I kept on kicking the pebble with the edge of my geta. And soon it became my strange mate.

"Her saccharine voice, her glimmering countenance, her opalescent eyes, her glistening skin. Everything about her is staggering. Her ways of handling situations and her ambience is out of the world."

The realisation made me stop in my tracks. The gentle breeze swayed my raven hair in directions. At that moment, I regretted for being late....

All these pondering thoughts were the reason that I woke up extremely late and now I'm standing here, delaying my appearance by 30 minutes already.

The young couple was already descending the stairs with a load of blessings on their side. If possible, I just wanted a few minutes to apologise properly for my act.

The bride looked up and encountered my dejected visage. After asking for permission to her other half, the bride made her way towards me, making our way to our last moment.

We stood under the shade of Sakura Tree. For quite a time no words were exchanged as we already knew each others state. It lies all in our silence, the answers to questions which never escaped our lips.

Soon a distant voice called for the bride. With a counterfeiting smile and a lot of contemplation, finally those words escaped her lips,

"......Save me....Toji".

It was the last of her that I saw. It was the last of her presence that I cherished the most in my life.

Untill....months later....

"It hurts Toji." Small beads of tears formed in her eyes as the once confident figure was trembling with fear infront of me. Y/n' pride was infused with many cracks and broken pieces. But still she tried to keep it all together.

We were standing in a deep alleyway where the bare minimum moonlight reached us. Her eyes were tired of crying. Her stature completely shaken.

In the recent months I had already gathered all the information which caused her to utter those helpless words.

The Okinawa's, one of the highest hierarchy, practiced sorcery which indulged a crucial way of gaining tremendous amount of curse energy. They used male dominance to invoke the utmost negative emotions of their partners. Sure Y/n was unaware of the fact and on the day when she was subjected to forced sexual contact....she ended up killing her husband. After that, the household treated her in the possible brutal ways.

"Why didn't your family stepped in?"

Her mother already knew about her condition, she was the one to whom she first approached after escaping.

Her silence was inevitable. Her bangs shielded her eyes completely. ".....I knew that I was the adopted child....but I wasn't aware of the fact that they raised me only to gain a position among the high rankers. Only to....build a powerful relation with the Okinawa's to achieve more power."

That day, marked my first day as a "Sorcerer Killer". After massacring the whole male population of Okinawa's and setting the widows free from the evil clutches, I returned back to lake where Y/n was waiting for me from the last few hours.

It was on her request not to kill her family that the Fujiwara's are safe. Whatsoever, they were the ones that took an abandoned child under their authority and gave her a chance to live.

The sun was ready to rise over the horizon. Hues of vermillion and carmine spread across the sky. Clouds of different shapes scattered in various directions. The lotus floating on the lakes slowly started to bloom.

It's not too late

"You know, we should....um....how to say this...."

Why am I stuttering??

A sweet giggle escaped her lips, "You sure do never be able to confess Toji." She took my hands in hers and gave me the brightest smile ever.

"Let's get married"

The way my heart fluttered. The feeling I experienced when I got someone who loved and cared for me.... was immeasurable.

"Does Toji Fujiwara sounds good to you?"

After hesitating a bit...

"Toji....actually my surname is-

A tight smack and I woke up. Literal confusion was visible on my face.

Y/n stood infront of me with a paper fan. Surely that was the weapon by which I was attacked.

"You were supposed to put the baby into sleep and not yourself" Her cute pout was admiring.

She settled down beside me and took our baby in her hands. It's been a year since that incident, since we both came together and started our own family.

"Toji we need to think of a name. It's been 4 days and yet we haven't decided."

The infant curled up his fingers around Y/n's thumb. A small and genuine smile spread across my face.

This is my family.

This is my happiness.

This is my blessing.

"The name will be Megumi Fushiguro"
