It was the next morning.

Giyuu woke up as he looked out of the window. It was a pretty windy weather,
the leaves of trees rustling.

Giyuu yawned, slowly sitting up.

"Let's do that some other day... We have plenty of time."
Sanemi's words replayed in his mind.

Just stop it... What is wrong with me?
Giyuu fell back on the bed, staring at the ceiling restlessly.

After calming himself down, he realised it could be because he never usually talked to Sanemi and now Sanemi being nice to him just overwhelmed him.

I should be used to it... Him being nice to me...
Giyuu thought.

He stood up, deciding to take a bath.

He got dressed, walking out. The weather was really windy. He wondered what the others were up to.

A fresh gush of cool wind moved his hair, revealing more of his face.

As he was walking, he heard a faint, calm voice from as distance, humming.

Out of curiosity, he followed the voice, pushing away bushes as he found the Mist Hashira sitting there, all alone.

"Tokito...?"
Giyuu muttered under his breath.

Muichiro heard him, turning towards the older Hashira. He just stared at him, all quiet.

Both of them stared at each other, quietly. But Giyuu decided to speak up,

"What are you doing?"

"I'm making paper planes because I have nothing to do."
Muichiro replied, his gaze shifting back to the colorful papers he had in his hand.

Giyuu's heart sank at the sight of Muichiro sitting there, completely alone.

He could see himself in Muichiro. He was once, all alone as well... Out of sympathy, Giyuu sat beside Muichiro.

Muichiro looked at Giyuu with surprise, as he didn't expect him to sit down next to him all of a sudden.

"You want to fly paper planes too?"
He asked.

Giyuu smiled softly at Muichiro's innocent voice.

"I would like that..."
He said, trying to get along.

"Take this."
Muichiro handed him a blue paper.

"It's like your eyes..."
He added.

Giyuu stared at the paper in his hands, smiling sweetly.

"Thanks."

Mitsuri and Obanai were on a walk together.

"So windy!"
She exclaimed.

Obanai nodded in response.

"Hey..."
Obanai called out.

"Yes?"
Mitsuri looked at him.

"...Is that Tokito and Tomioka?"
Obanai pointed out at Muichiro, who walked around restlessly with Giyuu following him.

Mitsuri squinted her eyes, looking closely.

"I guess it is them! How cute!"
She exclaimed.

Obanai wondered what the two were up to.
