giyuu tomkoka

The rain was falling heavily, hitting the ground and soaking everything.
You were walking aimlessly, with your clothes clinging to your body and your hair covering your face.
"How silly..."
You clenched your fists, remembering.
Sanemi Shinazugawa…
his words…
his deception.
You stopped in the middle of the storm.
"…Idiot."
Water mixing with your tears.
Suddenly, something falls gently onto your shoulders.
A haori.
You tense up and look up.
"You're going to get sick."
That calm voice.
Giyu Tomioka.
It stands before you, soaked, but firm.
"Why are you here...?"
Giyuu slightly averts his gaze.
"It was happening."
Silence. Only the rain.
You squeeze the haori in your hands.
"I didn't want them to see me like that."
Giyuu takes a step, without invading your space.
"I know."
It stays there.
"But you shouldn't be alone."
Your breathing trembles.
"He…"
You can't finish.
Giyuu doesn't ask.
Just stay by your side, in the rain.
And although the storm does not cease…
It doesn't feel so cold anymore...
