Chapter 16: Purpose

Your POV

~ Time skip, Morning ~

I woke up hearing Giyuu and Yoshihiro-san talking outside, I stood and went outside to see them drinking. It's so hot living near the shore, yet the view is undeniably beautiful, and the wind at night is so chilling. The sound of waves are so relaxing.

" Good morning, (y/n). " Yoshihiro-san greeted me. I smiled at him and sat beside Giyuu and pat Tafu's head.

' The son isn't even up, yet they're already drinking. ' I thought.

" Good morning, Yoshihiro-san. " I greeted him back. Giyuu smiled at me and gave me a fried tako, seafoods are the best.

" Thanks. " I said and started eating.

" I never thought you two were couples, I thought you were siblings. " Yoshihiro-san said and laughed, I blushed at what he said.

" Well, we used to be like that since we grew up with each other's side together with our other friend... " Giyuu said, I saw him greeted his teeth.

" Where is that friend of yours, I bet he's strong just like you two. " Yoshihiro-san said with a laugh.

I just looked at Giyuu. " He died a long time ago. " I answered, Yoshihiro-san's eyes widen.

" I-I'm so sorry, I didn't mean— "

" It's okay, Yoshihiro-san. " I said with a smile.

" Do you mind telling me what happened to him? " Yoshihiro-san asked and I just nodded.

" Well, we were on what they called the ' Final Selection ' where it's like an entrance exam to become a Demon Slayer. " I told him.

" We need to survive the seven nights to become official members of the Demon Slayer Corps. Yet I passed out during the fight and needed to be saved by them. " Giyuu added.

" Giyuu... " I muttered, I can see him clenching his fist unto his haori.

" He was killed by a morphed demon, even (y/n) almost died, but I did nothing about it. I should be the one who's dead. " Giyuu said blaming himself.

" I wimped out, I was too scared. I almost lost the both of them. " I Giyuu lowered his head then I saw a tear fell from Giyuu's eyes.

" I never even killed a single demon at that damn mountain, while he killed almost all of them. " Giyuu said.

" Well I'm sure there's always a purpose why it happened. " Yoshihiro-san said and stared at the sea. Giyuu and I looked at him.

" Oh yeah? And what would that be? " Giyuu asked him.

" We might not know why or what, but it all happens for a reason. " Yoshihiro-san said. Then he laughed, we both looked curiously at him.

" You might still be a wimp if he's alive till this very day, you might still be dependent of him and your probably not the you that I'm talking to right now. " Yoshihiro-san said, my eyes widen.

" You might not even be that man whom this woman loves, she might even fall for that friend of yours. " Yoshihiro-san said and laughed. Giyuu's eyes widen and he looked at me. I looked at Giyuu and chuckled.

" Sometimes, God makes us feel pain, for us to realize that we're alive. Sometimes he breaks us, for us to be fixed by him and make it even stronger and better. " Yoshihiro-san said with a smile.

" He also takes something so precious from us, because it was his from the very start, even us he owns us. He takes it back and change it for something even better. " He said with a laugh, Giyuu and I looked at him.
