Obanai had stayed by Y/N's side for ten agonizing days, never leaving her even for a moment. He watched over her, his heart filled with worry, as she lay unconscious, battling the mysterious illness that had taken hold of her. It felt like an eternity, but finally, on the tenth day, Y/N's eyes fluttered open.

Her vision was blurry at first, but she could make out the familiar silhouette of Obanai sitting beside her. As she reached out for his hand, his eyes widened in shock and joy. "Y/N!" he exclaimed, tears streaming down his cheeks. "I thought you wouldn't wake up."

Obanai's embrace was tight and filled with relief as he held Y/N close. She managed a fragile smile, her strength slowly returning. "I'm okay, Obanai," she whispered, her voice soft and weak. "I just... I didn't realize how sick I was."

Obanai couldn't help but feel a mixture of emotions – relief, joy, and lingering worry. He had feared the worst during those ten long days when Y/N remained unconscious, and the thought of losing her had been unbearable.

As they sat together, Shinobu, the Butterfly Hashira, entered the room with a gentle smile. Aoi, her loyal companion, followed closely behind. Y/N and Obanai turned their attention to her, eager to hear the results of the tests.

"I just received your test results, Y/N," Shinobu began. "It appears you have a rare condition that affects your immune system. We'll need to monitor your health closely and administer treatment as needed to keep the symptoms in check."

Y/N nodded, her gaze turning serious. She knew that this would be a lifelong battle, but with Obanai by her side and the support of the Hashira, she felt a glimmer of hope. Together, they would face this challenge head-on, determined to protect their love and cherish every precious moment they had together.
