Asami was adopted by the former Ice Hashira name Hinata who founded her on doorstep when she was a baby and raised to find out who she was. Giyu fell in love with Asami when they met in the final selection, and since then, they have been through a l...
Three months have passed since then, and I have been going on missions and some time with my loving husband. Lately, however, the master has ordered me to have fewer missions this time, even though something felt odd, or something I didn't know about yet.
I was at the Butterfly Estate with Aoi when she told me about it early, when I just arrived. She told me that the Sound Hashira Tengen was about to kidnap her and Naho for a mission at the Entertainment District, but Tanjiro stopped Tengen and took the girls' place, as well as Zenitsu and Inosuke.
However, I am glad Aoi and the Butterflies girls are okay now. But I don't think Shinobu will be happy with what Tengen did. But though it was not what I imagined either, Shinobu is my friend after all, but when she smiles, from the look on her face, she will be very mad, don't want to be on her bad side.
"I am glad you are here, Ms. Kobayashi," Aoi said. "Or should I say, Lady Tomioka now?"
I respond, "Of course, Aoi, anything for you and the girls."
"So what's new with you?" Aoi asked. "Is everything going well with your husband?"
I said as I turned towards her, "Well, nothing much. Except the master wants me to take it easy when I'm on missions just for a change, what he said to me earlier."
"Well, that's different," Aoi says, "Usually, you go on many missions, but now there are some changes."
I said very calmly. "Don't worry about it too much, Aoi. I'm sure the master has a reason for me, and I know it."
"I guess you're right," Aoi said as she looked at you for a moment, "Does your husband know about it?"
I told her, "Oh, he knows, but I didn't worry him."
Aoi nodded as we continued. Later, I help her and the girls with things around the mansion. After all, they have to deal with trouble with Tengen all day, for that matter.
I finished the laundry and put it on the drying racks. Then, I took a break and leaned slightly back on the porch.
"Here, I thought you might want a snack," Aoi said as she brought me the tray of sweet rice dumplings.

I told her with a smile, "Thank you, Aoi. I am a little hungry, though. I feel I have a craving for rice dumplings." I started to eat my snack.
"It's not a problem. Really. And a way for me to say thank you for the help." Aoi smiled as she left.

After my time at the Butterfly Mansion, I went to a nearby town to buy food for dinner when Giyu returned from his mission. As I finished picking up the food, I saw a woman who looked familiar.
I went over to that woman in that purple flower kimono, and I knew she had saved me when I was younger, as did the one Tanjiro met from Asakusa, and that woman was Tamayo.
