Narrator

Genya is in his room, resting as he looks over to the window.

*Knock* *Knock*

"Young Genya, may I come in?" A voice called through the door.

"Sure..!" Genya said, turning to the door.

Gyomei opens the door and walks in. He decided to visit Genya for a bit.
"How are you feeling?" The stone Hashira asks.

"Great! Thanks for asking..!!!" Genya replies with a smile.

Gyomei smiles softly at the teen. Then his sensed something.
"I sense anxiousness coming from you, is something wrong?" Asked Gyomei.

Genya smiles.
"Yea, I'm just waiting for a reply..." Said Genya.

"Oh? From your pen friend?"

"Mhm..." He nodded.

"Well, I'm sure it will be sent soon..!" Gyomei said as he pats Genya's head.
"Take care young Genya" Gyomei said before walking away.

"Good luck on your mission!"

"Thank you, rest well and don't get Shinobu mad..." He said before closing the door.

Genya sighed and looks through the window once again. Hashibami then flew and landed on the sill.

Genya pets his head.
"Hi Bami..." He said softly.

Hashibami then plces down a piece of paper down.
"Hi Genya!" He said.

"That was quick" Said Genya.
He then took the paper and opens it.

------------------------------------------

"Dear Secret Pen Pal,

It's alright, I was just curious of the meaning. May I tell you how my day went?

I bumped into someone yelling at another person, I found it irritating and just dragged them somewhere. When I finally found peace, the person continues to be loud with someone else. I like peace and quiet most of the times but this person irritates me.

I also apologize if this letter is late, may I also ask how your day went?

- Pen Pal"

------------------------------------------

Genya chuckled by reading the letter.
"They like peace and quiet? That's nice..." He said.

He then took a piece of paper and writes.

------------------------------------------

"Dear Pen Pal,

It's really interesting on how you deal with people, but I don't think dragging someone somewhere isn't really... Nice?

My day went okay I guess. I was having troubles for a moment until a woman came up to help me. I was pretty embarrassed, but I'm glad she did help me.

So how are you feeling so far?

- Pen Pal"

------------------------------------------

Muichiro grips the paper as he feels... Jealous?
"Woman? Helped??? Embarrassed????"

Ginko just stood there, seeing how menacing Muichiro can be.
'I wasn't expecting him to be THIS jealous...' Thought the crow.

"Pen Pal is with someone..?" Muichiro said in a quiet yet scary tone.

"W-What do you mean T-Tokito-san..?" Asked Ginko, you can see the nervousness and fear in her eyes.

"Pen Pal said they met a girl and zoned out, then they mentioned another female that helped them and made them embarrassed. They were also thankful!" He said aloud.

"Yea--"

"What if they have that 'crush' thing with that person?"

"Tokito-sa--"

"Or what if they--"

"Yea but that's no reason to be.. jealous..." Said Ginko.

"What's jealous?" Asked Muichiro in his usual tone.

"It's uhh.. how do I say this... Envy?" Said Ginko.

"What's Envy..?"

------------------------------------------

"Tokito-san is really cute, isn't he?" Said Genya with a pink tint on his cheeks.

"Uh huh..." Said Hashibami.

"What do you think will happen if I confess to Tokito-san?" Asked Genya.

"I don't think it's a good idea to confess right away..." Said the crow.

"Why would you think that?"

"You only encountered for 3 times and never has a proper conversation... I suggest to get to know him first..." Hashibami suggested.

"Good idea Bami!" Genya said as he pats the crow's head.
