Chapter 30

Gojo paused as she saw Chusi pace about near the entrance of the domain. "Are you okay?" he asked aloud.

"Ryomen is coming back soon, I can feel it. But I really need to talk to him." She said in a desperate tone.

"You still want to be with him after all the shit he has done? No offence…"

Chusi turned oddly and glared at him, it was a 'know your place' sort of glare! "Satoru Gojo, you as of this moment are my brother in law. As such I have to respect my sister's choice in picking you as her husband. Had the family been here, I doubt you would have never even had a date with Yua." She decreed rather coldly.

"What? What makes you think that!" he demanded.

"You lack maturity, you also are from one of the three great families, they have been trying for generations to obtain a Tooru bride. You would have been denied at the door!"

"I was, my clan was asking for an arranged marriage before Yua's parents passed away. They shot it down."

"Then why are you married to her?" she asked. Chusi bore a rather strange and yet, curious look.

"I fell in love with her!" he stated.

"How?"

He paused oddly, she was very determined to get her answer. "Well… you see… even as a kid, she was never taken in by my eyes, my power or the fact that I was the six eyes user of this generation. She didn't care, at the same time, I don't think she knew what was going on either. She was what… six or something. I was a little older too. But, every time my family paraded me around, every girl I came across… flirted, even if they were six years old. The families put them up to making a 'good impression' on me. She never did."

He peered at Chusi whose arms remained crossed. "And?" she asked.

Satoru sighed. "I admire her, she has always put others before herself, and never asked for anything in return. When… she died the first time around, she asked me to look after Yuuji as best as I could. She left a book of notes for me to follow, which I did!" he said in a matter of fact tone. "Yet, despite the fact she was dying, she was more worried about Ryujin and Yuuji than herself. She stood defiant of the council until the very end of her life, and they couldn't do anything to her! They feared her…"

"And?"

She sounded board of the whole thing. "What do you mean and? What more do you want from me!?" Satoru demanded.

Chusi sighed rather aggressively. "You admire her, you know she is strong in the mind and technique, but I want to know is WHY marry her? She had died and returned to life, similar to my situation. At the same time, have you shown ANY sort of affection to her before she passed the first time around? I don't hear any of that in your tale. Second of all, what have you done to show you love her? MY sister is lying in bed, unable to move due to her lack of limbs and yet you stand before me?"

He hated to admit it, but she has him there. "I didn't marry Yua for the sake of a strong heir if that's what you are thinking. Hell I didn't think I would EVER become a father! She has bore be three beautiful children who I adore and love very much!" he protested. "If you don't care about that, so be it. I love Yua, think what you want about me. But I have never looked at another woman!"

She was about to speak but suddenly appeared distracted.

Sukuna returned.

"RYOMEN!" she rushed to him, her arms wrapped around his waist as best as she could, but she kept peering up into his face. "Ryomen, are you okay?"

He forced a small smile. "Better than before, but still have a lot to consider…" he said gently.

Satoru was taken aback, that he had that kind of tone in his voice.

Chusi pulled back and looked him over. "You do feel better then, that's a good start, I think we need to make sure you are on the mend. In fact, I think you need a bath. But I can't make the water the same way mother did…"

A bath? Gojo shuttered at the notion, he has heard about the one bath Sukuna took in curse spirit essence. This almost sounded like the same thing.

"Why is six eyes here?" he asked.

"Just checking up on my sister in law. She was worried."

Chusi glared at him. "Yet your wife is bedridden? I can take care of myself, thanks though."

Why does she sound so spiteful?

Gojo sighed and decided to move along, yet, he was curious as to what her technique was. In fact, he stopped to consider it, until he heard. "Unless you want to be humiliated, don't think about it."

That warning came from Sukuna!

"What do you mean?"

"You had that same look the second time I took over the brat, curious as to what I could do and seeing if he could contain me, you want to test her. I warn you… you will be humiliated!"

Now, he was curious. "Oh? No one has really gotten the drop on me before… except for Toji."

Chusi however, bore a devious grin. "Oh? You want to know what I can do?"

She is starting to look a little crazy now!

"Uh… sure?" Gojo said offhandedly.

"Oh, this is going to be good!" Sukuna said with a greedy grin on his face. "Finally, I get to see you get your ass handed to you!"

"I've always wanted to beat up someone who thinks they are a big shot… you're next." She warned Sukuna, whose smile instantly vanished.
