Nezuko poured out the last drops of water from the watering can to the blooming flowers of the Butterfly Estate garden. In the distance the lady of the estate deep in her thoughts as she practiced her swing once more for the hundreth time this hour.

The young Kamado placed the can on the ground and made way to the training lady, concerned for her wellbeing. Lady Kanao has been under the sun for hours now and it might be bad for her.

"Kanao-san, I think it's time for you to rest for while. I'll prepare lunch." Nezuko said, breaking the hours of silence within the lady of the estate.

Kanao stopped her movements and stared at Nezuko in front of her as she was still catching her breath. "I can still go for a little more, Nezuko-chan."

"You need to rest, even just a little while. My older brother will worry, you know?" Nezuko insisted and she knew that mentioning her brother would be the final push for her.

Kanao's face started to heat up from her neck to her cheeks and ears, she turned her back to Nezuko in attempt to hide her blushing face. "I'll be in the kitchen.." she mumbled as she dropped the wooden sword on the ground.

Nezuko smiled in triumph as she skipped to follow the flustered girl to the kitchen. 

As soon as she served the last meal for Kanao, Aoi came rushing in the kitchen. "Nezuko-san, Agatsuma-san has been brought to the operation room. His wounds are deep and we need your assistance." she informed, still breathing heavily.

Nezuko's eyes widened and followed Aoi to the operation room, quickly putting on personal protective equipments before attending to the unconscious blond. In the room, Aoi, and other medical members of the corps stood and assisted Nezuko in the surgery.

The long gash down his chest was too large not to notice, his head was bleeding as well as the scratches on his face. All his injuries reminded of Nezuko the worst memories that she didn't want to be reminded of.

It had been a year now since they deafeated the demon Muzan. The Corps had lost several of the members as well as some honorable Hashira's. Many things have changed since then. Lady Kanao took over as a Hashira along with Giyuu, Sanemi, Himejima, Mitsuri, Iguro, Zenitsu, Inosuke as well as Nezuko's brother Tanjirou.

Their only duty now that Muzan was gone was to eliminate all the living demons left. And since then everything was peaceful. Mitsuri and Iguro married a few months after the fight, despite the grief they felt for the loses of their comrades, they were happy for the newly wed.

Nezuko decided to study medicine to help and work in the Butterfly Estate. She pushed herself to her limits and learned a lot of things until she was able to perform surgery to her full potential. Even just a little bit, Nezuko was happy to help.

Hours went by and the surgery finally ended, Nezuko sat on the ground, her kness bended over her chest. Her knees ached so bad yet she didn't let it affect her performance. The person was important after all. Her heart was beating heavily when she heard that Zenitsu was injured.

Zenitsu was brought to a private room of his own, he was still unconscious but he wasn't in critical state anymore. Somehow Nezuko found herself staring at his sleeping face as she sat on his bedside, wiping his face with a wet cloth.

A knock was heard at the door, pulling Nezuko back out of her thoughts. She set aside the basin of water and opened the door. In front of her stood his brother with his now longer hair tied back in a ponytail.
