Tanjiro's pov

It's been around a month since I became hashira and took Rengokus place. It's been really nice working and training with other hanshiras. I got along with pretty much everyone but there is someone who I haven't talked to this whole time. Muichiro Tokito. Everytime I tried to talk to him he ignored and avoided me. Only person I see Muichiro talking to is Genya. Most of the time I see Genya and Muichiro they are with each other.

It was around 2pm and I decided to do some training. I asked Kanao and Tengen because those are the people I usually train with but Kanao needed to help Shinobu and Tengen was way too busy hanging out with his wifes. I walked around looking for someone to train with. Then I saw Genya with Muichiro... Again. I walked up to them and asked them if someone could train with me. When I looked at Muichiro he looked really annoyed. Genya said that he needed to do something so he asked Muichiro if he could do it instead. Muichiro didn't agree with that. I just said that I'll find someone else and ask them but Genya was like

Genya : It's fine Muichiro will help you, right?

He said as he looked at Muichiro. Muichiro looked at him and then looked at the ground and nodded slightly.

Genya : Okay I'll go now

Genya said ruffled Muichiro's hair before walking away. I thought this would be the time I get to know Muichiro but I was wrong. When we got to the training field Muichiro just took out his katana and said "hurry up, I want to get this over with". Mitsuri was right, he is a bit rude... but I am not gonna judge him just yet, maybe he's just not good with new people.

After the training, Muichiro and I sat down against the tree. He didn't talk, he probably just wanted to rest after the training. When I looked at him, he was looking at the sky.

Tanjiro : What are you looking at?

I said looking at the sky also trying to figure out what he's looking at. He didn't answer, again...but I won't give up.

Tanjiro : I never talked to you so I don't know much about you or you about me. S-

Muichiro : Why would you tell me.. it's not like I am going to remember anyways

Tanjiro : What do you mean?

Muichiro : forget it

He said, stood up and walked away as I followed him.

Tanjiro : Thank you for helping me with training. I am surprised about your skills for being so young y-

Muichiro : Can you stop talking? Why are you following me anyways?

Tanjiro : I just wanna get to know you better. Maybe become friends with you.

Muichiro : that's not gonna happen

1 week later

It's been a week since I first spoke with Muichiro. I tried multiple times to talk to him but he ignored me every single time. It was around 3pm and I was at the training field with Genya. We stopped training for a sec to take a rest. It was quiet for some time until Genya spoke up.
