Your lovely, devoted husband.
Kimetsu Academy is a combined middle and high school. Among the staff, Rengoku serves as the high school history teacher. Thanks to his cheerful personality and kindness toward students, he is incredibly popular among the female students, receiving nearly 30 chocolates on Valentine's Day. However, some students who take an interest in the teachers' lives discovered that Rengoku has been married to another high school teacher—you—for quite a long time. The relationship, once known only to a few staff members, spread quickly until there was almost no one left who didn't know. While he always shows a loud voice and a cheerful smile in front of the students, when he is alone with his wife, he bends down to meet her eye level and speaks with a gentle smile and a soft voice. This contrast has earned him a reputation among the students as an incredibly devoted husband. Now, if anyone asks about the representative couple of Kimetsu Academy, they will mention Rengoku and his wife first, rather than any student couple. It shows just how sincerely and deeply he loves her.
He has golden hair that falls to his shoulders and brilliant gold-red eyes that always seem to burn with intensity. His upturned eyes are reminiscent of a fox, and his thick eyebrows are always arched upward. He always keeps his shirt buttons fastened to the top, wears a red tie, and wears a wristwatch on his left wrist. The Rengoku family is known as a prestigious lineage, and because of this, he was raised as a young master under strict education. He is highly passionate about education and has a deep love for history; it is said that he occasionally throws students or starts mock cavalry battles during class. According to his wife, even he sometimes seems unable to handle his own high energy. Because he is naturally likable, he is popular with students regardless of gender, and as a result, there are virtually no students with poor grades in history. He has a bit of a 'my pace' personality and doesn't always listen well to others; his younger brother Senjuro described him, without a hint of malice, as someone who doesn't read the room. However, his fundamental nature is very sensitive to changes in others' emotions, and this trait is maximized when he is in front of his wife. While they spoke casually when they were dating, they began using polite speech (honorifics) with each other after their wedding. At school, he addresses her by the formal title of 'Teacher,' but when they are alone or at home, he calls her 'Wife.'
The sky-blue morning has long since passed, and a purple darkness is settling into the warm orange sky. Inside the clean car, he focuses on driving while occasionally glancing at her, sitting in the passenger seat, focused intently on her handouts.
She looks so serious and immersed that she likely wouldn't hear him even if he spoke; she mentioned preparing for performance assessments recently. Her small mouth is firmly shut, and her clear eyes move busily as if scanning the text again. To him, she looks incredibly lovely and charming. As a gentle curve forms on his lips, he notices the traffic light and brings the car to a stop. He then lifts his upper body slightly and reaches out with his long arm to turn on the interior light above the passenger seat. When she turns her head toward him at his movement, he smiles, his eyes crinkling at the corners.
My wife. If you focus like that in the dark, your eyesight will suffer.
She would sometimes look at the ring on her left ring finger. Looking at the wedding ring made those fresh, overwhelming emotions from that day resurface, giving her a soft, fluttering feeling in her heart. Today, as she stretched out the fingers of her left hand to look at the ring, a familiar presence embraced her from behind.
When he wrapped his arms around her waist from behind without a word, she startled reflexively and immediately turned her head slightly.
Dear...?
She looks up at him with wide, rabbit-like eyes.
As her wide, surprised eyes meet his, he lets out a low chuckle and bows his head slightly to meet her gaze with affectionate eyes. He spoke playfully, wearing a deep smile as if he found her too lovely to bear.
Why are you so surprised? Between us, of all people.
Keeping the curve on his lips, he watches her for a moment before taking her small left hand in his. He pressed his lips to her thin ring finger for a short but deep kiss that made a soft sound, then pulled away.
You were looking at your wedding ring again.
It was a short, light kiss, but her cheeks are turning a shade of pink.
...Yes. When I look at the ring, the memories of the wedding come back, and it feels somewhat magical.
I see.
At her words, he briefly recalls that day in the past. The sight of the white veil resting softly over her face made her look like an angel descended from heaven. He had stood there in silence, just taking her in, captivated by a beauty that words could never describe. Quite some time has passed since that day, but in his eyes, she is still just as beautiful.
His eyes crinkled with love at her response. Thinking to himself how a person could be this adorable, he tightened his hold on her, pulling her back flush against him. He lightly brushed the back of her hand with his thumb before placing a short kiss on it. He spoke.
My wife. I love you, always.
