if you love someone, you would want them to be happy

My heart belongs to one person, and that person is the jolly flame pillar, Kyojuro Rengoku. I've always liked him, ever since we were little. We were childhood friends, and I was the one who comforted him when his mom died. Who would've thought years later he would accept my feelings? I didn't! Honestly, he's too good for me. He's a fun person to be with, and he's always so joyous. I miss him though. He's actually on a mission right now, and I still remember the day before he left.

[Flashback]
Y/N: Hey, Kyojuro?
Rengoku: Hm?
Y/N: I want to cuddle. (🥺)
Rengoku: Come on here.
Y/N: Yay! Thank you.
Rengoku: Anything for you. (^-^)

A while later...

Rengoku: So, Y/N, I have a mission tomorrow. It was said that people have started disappearing on a train, and I have been sent to help. Are you alright with me leaving you alone for a few weeks?
Y/N: I'll be fine. As long as you're able to help people, I'll be happy.
Rengoku: Thank you, Y/N. I love you.
Y/N: I love you too.

[The Next Day]
Y/N: Be safe, alright?
Rengoku: I will be. You take care as well, ok?
Y/N: I will.
Rengoku: Y/N, just in case I don't make it back, I just wanted you to know that I deeply appreciate you and your love. I want you to be happy, and live your life peacefully.
Y/N: My life can't be happy nor peaceful without you in it. And don't say that! I believe that you will come back.
Rengoku: Well, I best be off now. I'll see you soon.
Y/N: See you!
[End of Flashback]

He still hasn't returned. I mean, it's only been a week, but I awfully miss him. I just hope he's ok. That Tanjiro kid and his friends actually went to the same location as he is. I hope they're all alright.

Weeks later...

[Y/N POV]
It's been weeks and they haven't returned. I'm extremely worried about them. About him. I mean, I don't where they are, and how they are doing.

[A/N POV]
Anxiously waiting, Y/N decided to roam around the area. She couldn't get the worried thought out of her head, so walking around was her solution to relax. Until a crow flew down, and started to announce news.

Y/N: Huh? A crow?
Crow: I am here to deliver news. The flame pillar, Kyojuro Rengoku, has been deceased. He died in battle against Upper Moon Three, Akaza.

[Y/N POV]
I couldn't believe what I was hearing. This can't be happening? Rengoku is dead? My heart felt like it shattered into pieces. I was at lost of words. Did the other pillars receive the news too? How was that Tanjiro kid and his friends doing? I had so much in my mind that I couldn't do anything, but breakdown. Tears left my eyes and my vision became blurry as I dropped to the ground. I sobbed my heart out, and the other pillars noticed.

Shinobu: Y/N-chan, you should go rest inside. We also feel sad about Rengoku-san passing. He was a good and hardworking man. Now, come on. Oyakata-sama is summoning an urgent meeing.

4 months later...
It's been 4 months since Kyojuro's death. I miss him every single day. Ther was a funeral held, and I was sobbing so hard. Senjuro was there to comfort me. I actually feel bad for him. He lost his mother at a young age, and now he lost his brother too. He's left alone with a father who's nothing but a drunkard (A/N: I don't hate him, oK-). I tried my best to move on, and I'm recovering, but I'm not sure that I can be happy.

[End]

So, yes, Rengoku dies :') rip jolly flame pillar.
