FOUR DAYS LATER ~ AT THE WATER ESTATE ~ (Hayami's Pov:)

It's been a very calm week since that incident........

Judging by heavy and thick the tension was, I kept my promise to my fiance that I would see to an afternoon with him with dinner and alone time. We rarely had time together because of how much time was consumed, trying to train our young slayers within our estates or training grounds. Walking up the pathway following Nami above, she guides to me where Sanemi would be. Soon the sound of wood clanking together in the distance reaches my ears, realising he must be sparring with Giyuu today.

Guess he can't let go of Giyuu's words that day, when we had our meeting with Master's wife. 

"Seriously........" murmuring to myself.

Finally reaching the entry way to Giyuu's estate I soon saw Giyuu and Sanemi sparring with everything they've got in themselves. Though it doesn't look like Giyuu wasn't trying as hard as Sanemi, they both were on similar levels to some degree from where I stood. However my eyes follow to a boy, recognising the black and green checkered haori who watches in shock. 

Their wooden blades clash together with abrupt and precise moves, that were so quick that would only be a blur.

Giyuu's movements are always fluid and gentle like a flowing river, while Sanemi was the opposite with abrupt force of nature with gales of wind picking up with every stroke. When they both end up clashing, their wooden swords snapped into splinters causing to Sanemi's eyes to grow more crazy and menacing. He scoffs with a growl and slams his hands together, cracking his fingers, "Fine, guess we'll kill each other with our bare hands then!!!!!" Sanemi suggests, his grin growing wider.

Suddenly Tanjiro cuts in putting himself between the water and wind hashira, "Wait! Wait, wait!!!!" He objects quickly, raising his hands. "Please wait a second, you can't just kill each other!"

"Do me a favour and shut the hell up!" Sanemi barks at him, sharply. "And what happened to that restraining order you have? Oh I get it, you have been spying on us you lousy scumbag!"

"Is this about Ohagi?" Tanjiro mentions, with a clueless look in his eyes. He's purposefully doing that. "If thats the case, I promise I can make enough to fill you up okay?"

Suddenly Sanemi grew more furious with a darker menacing look, "You're messing with me aren't you brat?" He growls, towering the smaller slayer.

Tanjiro soon grew fearful, "What, no I'm serious!" He exclaims, taken back wondering if he was saying anything misleading. "Afterall, you do love Ohagi.....right? I remember back when you were training me at your place, I can always count on catching a whiff of Mochi rice and bean paste! There was always this lovely scent of matcha tea and Ohagi.....so I thought......" he slowly trails off, while I couldn't help but chuckle by the entry quietly.

"Hey Shinazugawa, you like Ohagi?" Giyuu questions him, with a slight interest in his tone.

Seems Giyuu was interested to know more about Sanemi, but didn't know how to ask or even bring up that kind of conversation.

Tanjiro smiles, "Ohagi, sure are yummy aren't they?!" he says, with a smile. "Do you like smooth beans or chunky beans? My grandma's Ohagi was my favourite!!"
