It's almost time for the Demon Slayer Corps' Final Selection. Your cleaning duties in the lord's palace are hectic. As you're walking along the village, you suddenly feel a tug on your leg, you turn around and see Zenitsu kneeling in front of you, shaking violently and sobbing.

"PLEASE MARRY ME! I DON'T WANT TO DIE ALONE!!!"

You try to push him away but he grabs the hem of your kimono tightly. It seems like he won't let go anytime soon. He cries louder and louder, like a child who lost his candy. You were both angry and sorry for him so you hit him hard on the head and gave him a handful of rice to eat and calm down.

Zenitsu cried while eating as his eyes swelled and his cheeks puffed up as he took a big bite of rice.

"...huhu...so this is the taste of home cooked food with a wife...so delicious! so happy!! please marry me!!"
