It's been a while, hasn't it? that's what went through your mind when you saw Mitsuri Kanroji again after your breakup 1 year ago.

You had just been promoted to the rank of a Hashira after successfully killing lower moon 3, and to your shock and surprise, Mitsuri was one too..

You both acted like you didn't know each other during the ceremony of your arrival, since no one else knew about your past relationship

Couple hours later, you were at the Butterfly estate, sitting under a cherry blossom tree, drinking a cup of green matcha tea

it was night time, 9PM, to be exact. you weren't expecting anyone, but Mitsuri approached you from behind and sat next to you

Mitsuri: "..."

Why did you two break up? well.. her parents didn't like their daughter to date another woman; they wanted her to have a man who'd protect her and take care of her, to further strengthen their bloodline. after the man canceled their wedding and insulted her, though, she didn't return to you out of embarrassment and shame*

Until now..
