It was midday, and I was cramped in a small dark room folding light colored blankets. I haven't been working all night, when Sumi, Kiyo, and Naho saw me scrubbing sheets at six in the morning they shoved me in this small room so the sun couldn't touch me. For such small girls, they're very formidable and strong!

It's a little unnatural for demons to sleep or nap, but I tend to nap pretty consistently during daylight hours. Similar to when Nezuko was a demon. A loud bang interrupted my thoughts.

"(Y/N)!!" Squealing .

Nezuko made a beeline for me and jumping into my arms, "You're okay! Thank goodness you're okay!"

My breathing stopped, and my body became stiff, I'm okay..? Did she actually remember me?

"Wait, you know who I am?" Her eyes were so bright, and her smile so genuine, so... human.

"Yes, yes! You were the nice lady that helped deliver the medicine to fix me! I remember everything!" Her voice was so sweet, like honeydew. "You were there when the temari demon showed up! You're super strong!"

"I'm surprised you didn't lose your memory, It's really nice that you didn't though." I complimented, "How's your older brother?"

"He'll be leaving this weekend! He's all better, one of his arms and eyes are still completely useless though..." Her voice trailed off.

She shifted the both of our bodies where we were both sitting on our knees facing each other.

"But... Why are you here? If you don't mind me asking of course!" Her voice perked back up.

"I was wanting to visit Shinazugawa-san and Tomioka-san, I want to make friends with everyone. I came last night, and Aoi ended up giving me a headache of work to do..." I explained with an exasperated sigh.

"Really? Although, I can see why, Aoi has been under a lot of pressure with all the wounded people! You're helping her a lot, so don't worry!" Her sweet voice and enthusiasm seemed to put my mind at rest, despite me not noticing the uneasiness in the first place.

"I'm glad I can help, even if it's a little bit," I smiled back at her, my heart feeling light.

She hummed and then suddenly stood up, surprising me a little. "Ah!" She exclaimed with eyes wide.

Nezuko rushed out the door, forgetting to close the door behind her... I hope she's ok, it was fun to visit even if it was a little. I giggled to myself a bit as I got up and closed the door myself.

It was the early evening, and Sumi did me a favor and drew all the curtains to give me more room to walk around the estate. I was looking for Aoi around the mansion to tell her that all the sheets and clothes had been taken care of. On my little quest, a large man with snow hair stood in the hallway.
