A Forging Apology...♡

Tomioka Giyu found himself back at his empty estate... standing on the empty porch as he stared out to the setting sun horizon.
.
.
.
.
.
.
He stood there in complete silence. It was enjoyable...but the sense of loneliness echoed in his mind.
.
.
He thought about what Iguro and Shinazagawa have said to him over his time as a Hashira...never in his time would they know how much it truly effected him...but tears would never arrive.
.

After hours of silence Tomioka went inside... changing into resting clothes, and prepared to stay in for the night. Mission free...

Tomioka Giyu woke up in the early morning as per usual. But since today...like other days...no missions...no friends...no nothing.... nothing was going on and he had nothing to do..

But...

He went to his front door, one that lead to his porch. Expecting himself to only see the plain morning horizon, but no... A letter laid on the porch boards.

The letter envelope said:
-To: Tomioka Giyu
-From: Iguro Obanai...

Confusion struck him. Not understanding why Iguro out of all people would send him something...let alone know where he lived.

"Dear, Tomioka. I don't want to be writing this. But frankly you need to hear it. I'm sorry. Certainly Shinazagawa isn't, but I am to an extent. Kocho is right in some aspects. You're not weak, you're a Hashira peer and deserve respect."

Then.... shock hit Tomioka...he never expected an apology... especially not from Iguro...he couldn't understand what made himself so happy about being written to...or maybe it was that it was Iguro who wrote it..?

His own slight happiness and confusion swirled around in his mind.
