Training is intense as usual but on the other side, Tanjiro got hurt again and again, he's being careful yet reckless at the same time but at least day by day he's improving himself and that's the most important part.

This time Tanjiro got injured from the Wind Hashira training, that tough man have hatred toward this little poor man and it sucks because that man with fulled of scars will never go easy on him no matter what.

I put an arm around him, aware of his scrawny shoulder and help him support to walk as he steady himself though he is still having trouble walking since Sanemi did injured his leg pretty bad and Tanjiro's face also covered with bruises, not only his face but everywhere actually.

We arrived at the butterfly estate and Kanao immediately spotted Tanjiro as the girl who tied her ponytail sideway with butterfly pin help Tanjiro.

"I'll take it from here, Tomioka-san" Kanao said with her respectful tone unlike her sister and I just nodded by head as I was about to walk away, the girl speaks up to me, "you should go do some check up" she added and I turn my back to face her.

"there's no need for it"

"blood are dripping on your sleeve, it's the best choice to do treatment" Kanao exclaims as she walk away while holding onto Tanjiro.

I look at my arm that is bleeding, I didn't even realize it bleeds that much and the girl is right, I should do treatment instead of putting the wounds here and I walk to the nursery room to search for people or anyone who could help me but no, everyone seems to be busy to handle another patient.

Until another butterfly sister appears in front of me, Aoi Kanzaki.

I roll my left sleeve up and she helps me clean with the blood then rolls those bandages around my wounds easily, "thank you" I said after she finishes with the stuff.

"is there anything you need?" Aoi asked me kindly but I just shook my head, "if there's anything, you could call me and I'll get going to watch Inosuke now" she told me and stepped out of the room but I called her and that made her stop for a while.

"where is Kochou?" I asked.

"she's working on a project that is assigned by Tamayo-sama in her room, better don't bother that girl, her temper is shitty" Kanzaki stated out and left the room, I was confused.

Project? Tamayo-sama?

I got up from the seat and walked to Kochou's room, I'm pretty familiar with the places since Shinobu did walk me around this place before for me to get familiar or I just often get treatment from the butterfly mansion whenever I get injured.

All of a sudden, I'm anxious to see her though I want to talk with her for a moment. I still remember about last week after she fell asleep in my embrace, her cold tiny body slowly heating up inside as I wrapped my hand all around her, gently under the tree of the cold snow.

That time, her face is getting paler as I noticed and I don't know what urges got into me that made me do all this kind of stuff which is stupid, I lent her my haori and even cuddled with her for her to stay warm, yet one more thing I wouldn't forget forever is that I kiss her forehead when she's asleep.
