Heading back now to the building where class is being held, Yuri stops Kyojuro from walking on. "Listen, no one knows you're back. I don't know what to tell them if they see you... or if they would even like me once they see what I did..." She was worried.

Kyojuro smiles at her before caressing her face. "I am retired. But I am still your mentor, not just your fiance. But you're right, me walking up just out of nowhere would be a shock to them. Would it be best if I remain unseen?" She nods. "Just until the timing is right... Everyone mourned for you and I think they would be angry at me for bringing you back... or not trust me for that matter."

Kyojuro gave it some thought. He smiled before removing his haori and handing it to her before going through his knapsack to pull out a black one. He threw it on and placed his other one in the knapsack. Yuri was adjusting his hood to make sure his face wasn't seen so well.

Kyojuro was looking at her as she was making adjustments. He was in love with her. "You look beautiful... I was afraid I'd never see you again.." His voice had always been loud but this time he was speaking so softly to her. A side of her that isn't known by many.

Yuri looked at him and they both began caressing their faces. "I was afraid I'd never see you again as well... You're very handsome. I can't wait to marry you." She made him smile. "Good, I was afraid you would change your mind when you told me about Sanemi."

She gasps and places her hands on her hips. "I SAID I WAS SORRY FOR THAT!" Kyojuro laughed before grabbing her and kissing her lips deeply. She calmed down instantly and wrapped her arms around his neck. She loves when Kyojuro gets like this; when he's in an affectionate mood. It was everyday and he never went a day without telling her how much he loved her.

They began heading to her building. Her students were there working on drills. Muichiro was there surprisingly; he was filling in for her once he heard that Yuri had not returned. He was surprised to see a hooded figure with her.

"Yuri; why did you not come this morning for your training? And who is this?" He was very cautious. Yuri felt she could trust Muichiro.

She saw her group and smiled before waving at Tanjiro who was happy to see her. Inosuke was doing well until once his eyes saw her, the mechanical dummy hit him and he got violent with the poor machine like a feral animal.

"I can explain. Please come with me outside?" She asked. Muichiro wasn't sure as he kept looking at the stranger. "You brought an unknown guest to our corp..."

"Please, Muichiro. You're the first person I've met since I got here and I can't trust anyone but you at this point. Please come with me?" She begged.

Muichiro was surprised to see someone who's a little older than him begging for his trust. He couldn't help but want to smile inside. But no emotion comes. He leads the way out the door. "Come with me."
