Kanae's POV
'Y/n is such a cute child! I feel her and Muichiro will make a great match!' Y/n approached me and shyly started to talk with a warm smile. "Um Kocho Sama? I am honored that I will be able to work with you and I will do my best so I don't have to burden you too much from my own incapabilities..." oh my god this kid is so sweet it's adorable. "You can call me by my first name! And don't worry you're so adorable I won't mind helping you at all! Never hesitate to come ask for my help!"
Y/n's POV
"Thank you Kanae sama!" We smiled at each other and I felt happy for the first time in a while to be interacting with someone. "Well I should head back to my mansion now, I wouldn't want my sister and the girls worrying about my whereabouts." Kanae sama giggled. "Bye bye y/n chan!" "Bye Kanae sama!" I waved.
I turned around to face Muichiro who was now picking up little pebbles from the ground in the garden. 'The master said he's a year older than me right? He's also a much higher rank, I should stop calling him by his first name even in my head, because it will be rude.' "Um Tokito sama? Would you like to head back to your house now?" I asked while I crouched down and tilted my head to the side. Muichiro looked up at me and asked "who are you again?"
Ginko's POV (I'm making her the sweetest bird to ever live)
From the tree branch I'm perching on I can see the new girl y/n crouch down to talk to Tokito sama. 'She's such a cute and sweet girl, I'm glad she's now going to be assisting Tokito sama.' "Who are you again?" I heard Tokito sama say. I watched as Y/N's shoulders slumped, her gaze falling to the ground. 'Even though she barily knows Tokito sama it must hurt to be forgotten so quickly. I should help.' I landed on Tokito sama's shoulder. "Tokito sama," I spoke softly, since Tokito sama is still also just a 12 year old boy. Muichiro turned to me, his expression distant yet curious. "Ginko," he acknowledged, his voice tinged with uncertainty. "You know she'll be living with us now, right?" I reminded him gently. "You'll be training her, and she'll be helping take care of you. Tokito sama nodded and as I suggested if we should all head back to his house.
Y/n's POV
That bird, Ginko was her name? It's so pretty and she's such a sweet bird. I made contact with her and I gave a small smile as a little thanks. Muichiro started to walk out of the masters mansion as I scurried behind him. He suddenly stopped walking as he turned to me and asked "how fast can you run?"
Muichiro's POV
Ok this is the girl that I'm living with now. What was her name? W/n? No. Y/n? Who knows. "Um i don't know I havnt run much before..." the girl mumbled. 'I wana go home now so I'll just carry her to go quicker.'
I threw her over my shoulder as she let out a little yelp. "Tokito sama, if I may you might want to be more gentle with y/n, and it might be better for you to stop throwing her over your shoulder as if she's luggage." Ginko advised. I nodded but wasn't sure how to pick her up. I dropped her on the ground as she caught herself before getting hurt.
"Um Tokito sama? I can just run to your house on my own..." the girl looked down as she spoke. "No if you're slow you will get left behind." I responded
No one's POV
Muichiro stood in silence, with his stoic facial expression as he thought of what to do. Y/N stood nearby awkwardly unsure of what she should do. Muichiro watched her, his gaze unreadable as he pondered still whether he should carry her or get her to also run with him.
Without warning, a decision crystallized in his mind, unbidden yet undeniable. With a swift motion, Muichiro scooped Y/N into his arms, her startled gasp echoing in the stillness of the night. She tensed for a moment, her cheeks flushing with a delicate shade of pink as she adjusted to the unexpected embrace.
Feeling embarrassed and scared of falling out of the strong arms of Muichiro Y/N nestled against him, her warmth seeping through the fabric of his uniform, sending a shiver down his spine. He could feel her heartbeat, steady and reassuring against his chest, a rhythm that echoed his own.
Ginko's POV
Tokito sama is carrying her. BRIDAL STYLE. 'Where did he learn that?! I have to admit though they are quite cute together. Y/n seems embarrassed but Tokito sama's face is as blank as usual.'
Ginko chuckled to herself the rest of the way home excited for what may happen in the future between the two of you

Y/n's POV
'OH MH GOD WHY IS HE CARRYING ME LIKE THIS THIS IS SO EMBARRASSING WHAT THE HECK WE BARILY KNOW EACH OTHER OH MY GOD' suddenly Tokito sama came to a halt in front of a medium sized house. 'Oh this must be his house' I tried to wiggle out of his grasp, but he held onto me, so I gently tugged on his sleeve. "Tokito sama... can you let me down..?" I feel embarassed asking that.
"Oh right I forgot you were there." Tokito sama dropped me and this time I couldn't catch myself and hit my butt on the hard ground. 'Oww my butt!!'
Tokito sama walked up to the front door and Ginko swooped down and unlocked the door with a pair of keys she (somehow) held onto. As I walked into his house I felt so empty and sad, as his house did not seem to be taken care of.
The main living area greeted her with its desolate atmosphere. A few pieces of worn furniture dotted the room, their surfaces coated with a fine layer of dust.
As I made her way through the house, she couldn't shake the feeling of loneliness that pervaded every room. The kitchen was a barren space, with only the bare essentials of cooking to be found. The shelves were nearly empty, save for a few dusty cans and jars that had long since expired.
Upstairs there was one room which seemed to be Tokito sama's because it was decently clean and it seemed someone recently slept in the bed. There was another room which Ginko informed me saying it would be mine, and it had a bed and an old dresser, apparently from the past Hashira.
There was also a bathroom that had a tub and looked very clean compared to the rest of the house. Probably because he showers there and the water kinda cleans it.
'Tokito sama's house is so bleak and dusty, maybe tomorrow I can clean it up. I'm a little tired tonight so I will tell Tokito sama and Ginko I am going to sleep.'
