(Tanjiro POV)

I'm getting ready for bed lost in thought. It's been about at least a week since I asked Kanao the question. She stuck around me more often probably to make me feel better.

It made me happy, huh. Why is my face warming up. I lift my hands to my face, oh...

I also almost forgot. How would she react if told her I've been hiding something from her.

(Kanao POV)

I was sitting in my room silently crying to myself. Our caretaker talked to me a few minutes ago.

I'm getting adopted. Thoughts clouded my mind, did Tanjiro know...? Did he have a feeling is that why he questioned me. The way he looked at me sadly told me he must have.

I don't want to leave. I lay down in bed over thinking until I drift off into sleep. I woke up the next morning throwing myself out of bed running to Tanjiro's room.

I opened the door he looked like he just woke up. "Hey Kanao" he spoke tiredly. I run over to him as I tackle him back into his bed sobbing.

He wrapped his arms around me whispering encouraging words, when I calmed down he asked me "want to talk about it?" he spoke in the softest voice it made me comfortable.

"I'm getting adopted today." I sniffle out. "That's a good thing!" he said happily but there was a glint of sadness.

I was shocked "No because I'll be leaving you!" he smiled reassuringly at me. How could he smile... "it'll be okay, it's not forever." his look sadder than before.

"We'll see eachother again... Right?" I almost started crying but choked back the sob.

"Right" I said proudly holding out my pinky finger.

We'll see eachother again... Right? (Tanjiro x Kanao)Where stories live. Discover now
