Kokushibo's POV

I taped akaza on his shoulder. It appeared to catch his attention as he turned around to face me. He looked uneasy about the note. I asked him what was wrong. He told me about the note questioning me on what he should do. Upon noticing Akaza's stress.  I said to him, "I will handle the situation." He seemed to relax a bit after that, but then he shot me a concerned look. I comforted him by insisting that I would be alright. After all that, we headed to our first-period class.

The day went by as planned with the girls watching akaza for the first half of the day. And with me keeping an eye on him for the remainder of the day. We were dismissed from our last-period class and after gathering our these from the lockers. I walked akaza to his brother's car with Yorrichi close behind to say his goodbye to akaza. Me and Yorrichi walked home. After getting home. I waited for the time to hit 4:30. 

As soon as the clock struck 4:30, I quickly changed into more comfortable attire. By the time I finished dressing, it was around 5. I began my walk toward the park. As I approached the area, I spotted muzan in the distance. Who was pasting back and forth in one spot? Oddly enough.

Muzan's POV

Where is he? I expected him here by five. It's already past five. Suddenly, my name was called out. I turned to see who it was. To my dismay, it was the very person I had hoped to avoid, yet retreat was no longer an option. I inquired about Akaza's whereabouts, and kokushibo stated, "Akaza was at home. And that akaza asked him if he could go in his place, to which he agreed." I realized that once he spoke, my fate was sealed. Kokushibo takes Akaza's safety seriously and does not tolerate threats towards him.

I looked to see kokushibo wielding a sword. I was up halted to see him with a sword, but before I could get away. I was attacked by kokushibo. I don't know what happened next. I knew I was on the ground clothes stained with blood. I felt like I was being carried somewhere. I fell unconscious after that.

Kokushibo's POV

After dumping Muzan's body in an alleyway, I headed back home and climbed through my window like I did earlier, so Yorrichi didn't see me leave the house. I immediately took off my bloody clothes and went into the shower. And then headed to bed for the night.

The Next Morning

Narrator's POV

The school week passed slowly yet steadily. Kokushibo concluded that he might have feelings for Akaza. To prevent hasty judgments, he chose to wait for two months. Over time, his fondness for everything about Akaza grew. Kokushibo adored his laughter, the way he spoke, his bravery, his resolve, and much more. This was the final nail in the coffin for Kokushibo to realize that he indeed had developed feelings for Akaza.
