Kimetsu Academy! | A Tanjiro x Kanao Story

Chapter 15 {The Daily Depressing Life Of Giyu Tomioka... Again...}

I don't know where I was, it was dark. Everywhere was dark. 
I was stuck laying on my back, water had replaced the floor beneath me.
I couldn't move an inch. My only way of movement was the wind and the flow of the water. 
It was becoming colder and colder by the second... I didn't like it.

I... Didn't like... being alone...

"Giyu!" 

A voice called out to me from the darkness. Just by hearing the voice alone made me feel much more alive, it made me feel warm.

"Giyu!!"

The second call brought light into this dark void and only grew bigger and bigger, turning the whole room a bright white void. I could feel my body again, I could finally move again... 
I rose to my feet the minute I realized I could and looked around to see where the voice was coming from. But the calls stopped after I got up. 

I frantically looked around, calling back to it. 
I didn't know why I wanted to find it so badly, the voice just felt so... kind. 
And just when I thought that the voice had left me to be alone in this place, I heard it.

"Giyu!!!"

On the third call, I turned to it. And when I did, there was a figure which resembled that of a woman's. They came running towards me, crying with their arms out ready to embrace me at the same time.

"Thank goodness you're alright! Why would you run off like that!?"

The woman was now hugging me tightly, crying and caressing my head.
It felt as though I was a child again, being hugged by their mother...
no...
my, sister.

"Tsutako...?" I asked with tears unconsciously coming from my eyes.

Tsutako: "Yes. It's me Giyu, you're safe now. I promise." She assured me, squeezing me even more.

I couldn't help but hug her back and cry my eyes out at the same time.

My eyes opened and were met with a ceiling and a poster of a tv show I used to watch.

"Oh, it was just a dream..." I thought to myself before stretching and reaching for my phone to check the time. 

"6:45?" No matter what I do the day before I always manage to wake up early it seems. Just before I got up from bed a noticed some water dripping onto the floor and looked up to see if it was coming from above. "That shouldn't be possible, my ceiling is perfect. No cracks or anything... so then, where's it coming fr-" That's when I felt water roll down my face. I placed two fingers on my face and then realize it was my own tears. I quickly wiped them away and left my room to go and wash my face in the bathroom.

"What am I going to do today...?" I asked myself while looking at my reflection in the mirror.

After a couple of minutes of thinking, Giyu decided that he'd just do what he always did in his free time and watch sitcoms. With that in his idea fresh in his mind, he made his way downstairs and into the kitchen to make himself some breakfast.
He put together some rice for himself and headed over to his couch then turned on the tv and sat back, and relaxed while watching episodes of The Addam's Family.

About three hours go by and Giyu is now sleeping on a side as the show still goes on. His snores were soundless, almost as if he's been practicing how to breathe properly his entire life.
Oh, wait...

The sound of a phone vibrating on a table was so loud that it managed to be so noisy that it woke Giyu up from resting. 

"Why can't I just sleep in peace..." I got up and stretched for the second time today then checked my phone to see who was calling, and surprisingly enough, It was Rengoku. I answered with a slight yawn. "Hello?"
