"A daughter may outgrow your lap but she'll never outgrow your heart."

No one expected such a tragedy.

Literally, no one.

"You shouldn't force yourself like this, Oto-san."

She smiled gently at her father, Kagaya, who was struggling to get up from his lying position on the floor.

"Don't worry, (Y/N). I can handle myself pretty well."

A pout rested on her lips. She commented, "I can see that clearly."

A soft laugh came out of Kagaya. (Y/N) didn't protest any further and enthusiastically aided him to the graves of departed Demon Slayers.

She watched from his side. Her height is half the size of her own father. Nonetheless, she is always ready to help him whenever he wishes to go to.

Amidst the peaceful silence, a tiny cough resounded throughout the graveyard. Kagaya looked to the side to check on (Y/N).

Before he could ask, another cough escaped her lips. Then, it was followed by another, with no stopping.

(Y/N)'s little body collapsed on the floor. She started to struggle with her breathing. Her coughs worsen and she needed to punch her own small chest in pain.

Kagaya knelt beside her and brought his daughter to an embrace. He couldn't do anything. With the state of his own body, he can't even shout for help.

"(Y/N)!" Amane hastily approached the two, her face contorted in panic at the sight of (Y/N) in Kagaya's arms.

She was a bright girl with unwavering dedication to nurse her father until the time has come for him to pass. She might be young to get the gist of the reality of the situation, but she's a sensitive girl. She can easily pick up what was wrong with the people around her.

But, she can't pick up what was wrong with her.

"Let's play outside, Nichika-nee-san, Hinaki-nee-san!" (Y/N) chirped.

Her two sisters looked wearily at her way.

Nichika denied, "You should be resting, (Y/N)."

A pout rested on (Y/N)'s lips. She raised her arms and put on a tough look. Despite her almost no trace of distress, pain invaded her body. She tried her best not to grimace in front of her sisters' presence so she can play with them.

Hinaki noticed the slight pain in her young sister's eyes. As much as she wanted to play with her sister, they can't do it outside.

(Y/N) insisted, "I'm fine! Look at me, I'm oka—" series of coughs cut her off. Both Hinaki and Nichika went to her side in a flash. Nichika said, "Let's just play in your room, (Y/N)-chan."
