Reading

ふで
  • Kyoko
    (Tokyo accent, female)
  • Kenichi
    (Tokyo accent, male)

Explanation

Since this word is made up of a single kanji, it probably uses the kun'yomi reading. You did not learn this reading, so here's a mnemonic to help you to remember: For as long as you can remember, your family and another family has had a bloody feud (ふで) over this one writing brush. Just think of all the people killed over this brush. This feud has to end.
