''Agatsuma Zenitsu has a heightened sense of hearing, allowing him to detect danger from even the faintest of sounds. He is also able to hear the inner thoughts of people if he uses the sense of hearing to its fullest potential.

And here he was, wondering why does [name]'s sound so different as compared to the previous days he had spent time with her. He stood outside her classroom as she waited for her lesson to finish which was Biology, and he noticed how [name] was slouched against her desk and had her hands on her stomach.

He could hear her whispers through his hearing and he couldn't understand why was she in so much pain. He then rubbed the back of his neck as he turned to walk away, to find some help from Tanjiro and the others.

"Ah, there he is!" Tanjiro called out as Zenitsu entered their classroom as it was now lunch break, and it was raining heavily outside. Tanjiro then noticed the look on Zenitsu's face, an expression that he has never seen before on his fellow friend's face once.

"Zenitsu? What's wrong?" Tanjiro asked and he noticed how there was a deep scent of worry radiating from Zenitsu himself. Genya then nudged Aoi who let out a sigh and soon pointed out towards the classroom where girls were walking by.

"Zenitsu, the girl in black hair was waving at you," Aoi spoke out and they watched as Zenitsu stood up and they covered their ears,  bracing themselves from the intense shout that was going to happen most of the time, only to realize he had sat down.

"Uh? That's a first," Aoi whispered out and Inosuke nodded his head.

"Hey, Kanao," Zenitsu spoke out and Kanao looked at him with a raised eyebrow, preparing a rolled-up newspaper just in case he said something stupid as usual. Zenitsu then scratched the back of his ear a little in an embarrassed manner, and soon the door to their classroom slid opened, and in came Nezuko and her friends.

"Eh? Is [name] not going to join us?" Tanjiro asked and he turned to look at Zenitsu, wondering if he had done something to the mentally unstable girl. Zenitsu then raised his hands in defense as he shook his head vigorously.

"[name] said she isn't feeling up for it, so she wanted to remain in the classroom," Nezuko explained and Zenitsu was fidgeting a little too much then. He then sent a text to Kanao instead, causing the Kamado Tanjiro's girlfriend to have a confused expression.

"Uh?" she whispered out and Zenitsu let out a sigh.

"I... I think [name] might be on her period, so I want to make her feel better. What should I do?" Zenitsu asked, a little more confidently and his friends could only have their eyes widened at what he had just asked.

"I'm not asking in a perverted manner! I'm just genuinely wanting to make her feel better! Why are you giving me those looks?!" Zenitsu started to whine out and Kanao along with Aoi could only let out a sigh as Nezuko gently patted him on the head.

"Not sure if she came unexpectedly or not, take this," Aoi muttered out as she handed him a small pouch which he would assume safely it was something for them to use. Kanao then nodded and sent him a reply via text and he looked at it.

"The cafeteria should sell something like this if you request for it," Kanao added on as she tried to remember if the cafeteria did sell. Tanjiro then looked over towards her phone and he nodded his head in agreement.

"They do sell. I bought it for you back then," Tanjiro spoke out as he wrapped an arm around Kanao's shoulder and pulled her in closer. They then watched as Zenitsu quickly got up and ran out of the classroom instead, and his friends were rather surprised then.

"I didn't expect to see that side of him at all. He must really like [name]," Genya commented and Tanjiro too, was rather surprised with the way Zenitsu was acting. After all, there were times Zenitsu would bug him nonstop to let him marry Nezuko.
