Ryomen Sukuna thought you had more brains than this.

He may have coddled you, defended you, treated you better than his other concubines. However, that wasn’t the sign that you were actually special to him. Where did you gain the audacity to even suggest that he’d grant you a gift for this idiotic holiday? As soon as you even muttered the question out of your mouth, Sukuna realized he was softening up. It was his behavior making you think things like this.

He decided the only way to get the foolish ideas out of your head was to avoid you completely. He was pleased to say the least, as you no longer were by his side. Sukuna no longer saw you around his domain, and he didn’t make the effort to. You had to learn your lesson that he’s not a mortal.

However, as the weeks passed by, it seemed to change. Sukuna no longer felt driven to prove you wrong. He felt the change. Sukuna realized he didn’t need the warmth you provided on his bed. He didn’t need the sappy “I love you’s” that you said on accident sometimes. He didn’t need your voice to wake him up in the morning. He didn’t need you by his side. He didn’t need you.

Sukuna also realized that he had pushed you away.
