Kyojuro's demeanor held a tinge of sadness, his hopes of finding (Y/N) dashed for the moment.

Despite this, he remained courteous and grateful as he thanked Mitsuri for the information.

Nodding to both her and Obanai, he excused himself from their presence, seeking a moment of solitude.

Settling into an empty seat, Kyojuro's gaze wandered across the scene of celebration.

The joy of the graduates and faculty members unfolded before him, a vibrant tableau of shared experiences and bonds forged over time.

Lost in his thoughts, Kyojuro's reverie was interrupted by a playful and unexpected intrusion.

Tengen, ever the extravagant and charismatic figure, covered Kyojuro's eyes with a sense of mischievousness.

"Guess who's behind you," Tengen's voice teased, his tone playful as he engaged in the game.

Kyojuro's chuckle resonated with recognition, his response hinting at the unique traits that set Tengen apart.

"I know it's you, Tengen," he remarked, his words carrying a mixture of amusement. "No one else I know wears extravagant and textured rings quite like you do."

Tengen's melodious laughter danced through the air as he uncovered Kyojuro's eyes, his words carrying a light-hearted undertone.

"You know me so well, boo~" he remarked, his vibrant personality shining through.

Settling onto the seat beside Kyojuro, Tengen's eyes took on a mischievous gleam as he stared at his friend with an intensity that bordered on the dramatic.

A playful grin curved his lips, his actions reminiscent of a hawk fixating its gaze on its target.

The tension of the moment began to weave a comedic thread, as Kyojuro's growing unease was juxtaposed against Tengen's deliberate theatrics.

As the silence stretched, Kyojuro's nerves finally got the better of him, and he couldn't resist voicing his curiosity.

"What do you want?" he inquired, a mixture of resignation and amusement lacing his words.

Tengen's perceptive gaze held a knowing glint as he addressed Kyojuro, his words weaving a tapestry of familiarity and understanding.

"I know that look, my friend," Tengen began, his tone both playful and observant.

Kyojuro's brows furrowed, a mixture of confusion and curiosity etching his features. "What look?" he questioned, his tone betraying his uncertainty.

Tengen's grin widened, a playful challenge in his eyes as he continued.

"The look in your eyes-it's unmistakable," he declared, his voice holding a touch of assurance. Kyojuro's expression remained puzzled, prompting Tengen to offer a pointed explanation.

"You're thinking about (Y/N) again, aren't you?"

"I-I... What-No! Well, Maybe-"

Kyojuro's attempt at feigning ignorance was met with a knowing chuckle from Tengen.

"Oh, come now, Kyojuro. You can't deceive me with that longing expression," Tengen teased, his tone light and amused.

And then, Tengen's observation veered towards something more specific. "I saw the small box in your hand earlier. I know what you're up to." he added, his voice holding a tinge of mischief.

Caught off guard by Tengen's perceptiveness, Kyojuro's cheeks tinged with a light blush.

His curiosity piqued, he questioned Tengen further. "What do you think I'm going to do?" he asked, a mixture of interest and hesitance in his voice.

Tengen's response was swift and laced with his trademark charm. "You're totally going to propose right now-Oh my goodness," he stated matter-of-factly, his words carrying a touch of dramatic flair.

Kyojuro's blush deepened, and he was quick to deny the claim, his voice tinged with embarrassment. "W-What the hell- Why is everyone thinking about marriage, dear jebesus." he protested, attempting to downplay the notion.

Tengen's dramatic wail echoed through the air, carrying a hint of theatrics that defined his personality.

"It's too early for you to be getting married, Kyojuro!" he lamented, his words punctuated with an exaggerated tone.

He continued his playful performance, complete with comedic flair, expressing his aversion to the idea of becoming an uncle anytime soon.

Kyojuro responded with a playful punch to Tengen's arm, a display of camaraderie that showcased their comfortable rapport.

"Relax, Tengen. I'm not getting married," he reassured, his voice carrying a light-hearted undertone that matched Tengen's theatrics.

However, their moment was interrupted by a new voice that entered the scene, drawing their attention.

The unexpected voice belonged to Vivian, who posed a simple question that instantly surprised Kyojuro and shifted the dynamic of their conversation.

"Who's getting married?" Vivian inquired, her tone curious and innocently unaware of the context that had been unfolding between Kyojuro and Tengen.
