Your once light skin

Oh Mommy!
What happened to you?
"Mom? A-are you ok? What happened? I just saw you this morning." It was true, her mother had walked her to the end of the drive way and watched her get on the bus for school like she did every morning. And her mother hadn't looked like that.
Her mother didn't say a word. Then again what could she possibly say. "It's okay sweetheart. I'm alright."
Rin stared at her mother, starting from the top, her left eye was swollen and purple, the color of a fresh bruise. Her nose was red, and with what looked like a drop of blood peaking out of the right nostril, her bottom lip, broken.
Her mom just acted like normal. So Rin decided to drop it. If her mom wasn't concerned then she shouldn't be either right?
"So, Rin, how was school? Anything interesting happen today?"
"Well all the fifth grade classes are competing against each other in the science fair. We are working together as a class. We also planned our trip to the Aquarium, Mrs. Hale passed out the permission slips today. Can I go mom, please?"
"You'll have to ask your father."
"Hm, never mind then, I'll just leave it on the table. Oh she also passed out our report cards. I got all A's."
"As usual, I'm very proud of you."
"Thanks mom, I'll leave that on the table also."
"Ok sweetheart. Why don't you set yourself up on the table and start your homework, that way when your father wakes from his nap he can take a look at it and your report card. I'm getting ready to start dinner."
"Ok, mom, where's my little brother?"
"He is in his room, your father bought him a new puzzle. Fifty pieces this time, I swear that boy really has a talent for those."
"Ok, well i better get started while he is distracted, you know how much he likes to mess with my homework. He finds it funny when dad tears it up and makes me do it all over again when its not perfect. That means, no erase marks, mistakes, or even a wrinkle."
"oh Rin, you know your brother doesn't know better. He's little, he's only five after all."
"Look mom, I was five when he was born. And by then I already bathed my self, slept in my room by myself, and stuff cuz you guys were so busy with the new baby. So if I was able to do it, I don't understand why he can't."
"You know your brother gets sick alot, you were a healthier baby. You know you will always be my little girl. I love you too."
"I know mom, I love you too."
Rin went through her daily routine of setting up her work area, pulling out her school work materials from her backpack and setting up in order. She was going to start with Math first, since it was easiest first and since it was the one subject that if she had a question on, her parents could help her. Then after math came social studies and her least favorite, reading. Not that she wasn't good at reading, it was just that grammer is hard when you don't have any help. Her parents didn't speak any english, since they lived in a part of the US where most of the people who lived on this side of town were Japanese, and the factory were her father worked at didn't require that you spoke English. Her parents had moved to the US when she was eight months old. Her father, Inuyasha, came first. Well the actual story goes like this.
Her parents met at age 20. Her mother being only a few mother being only a few months older, but she didnt find that out until her wedding day. Anyways, her grandparents had taken her mother to a celebration at the shine they regularly visited, there was a new priest stationed and the neighborhood was having a festival to welcome him and his family. At the festival my mother met my father, who then courted Kagome. Her parents had been elated, Inuyasha being the son of a priest, it would bring great honor. Grandpa Higurashi was very devoted and donated generously to the shrine. So both families benifited, the Higurashi's gained honor in a religious based society and the Tashio's gained financial security. What Kagome didn't know was that Inuyasha was a womanizer, of course no one said anything. He was the son of a priest! Everyone just chucked it up to rumor. Another thing they forgot to mention. Inuyasha's temper. Anyways to make a really long story shorter. A year later they married, a year after that, at the age of 22, her mother had Rin. By this time though, Inuyasha had gotten fired from his job. Most of his sibblings by then had moved to America. Inuyasha's father was sent to set up a shrine at a developing japanese community. His older sister by then worked at the factory and got Inuyasha a job there. He filed for his residency and then her mothers and hers. He has been working at the factory ever since, and kept his family stable.
Most of her dads family lived close by, but they never visited. Rin always felt more confortable with the Higurashi's than the Tashios. Then again like most 10 year olds, she didn't think much on that subject. Rin got enough love from the family she does frequent.
Finally finished with her home work, and with no mistakes too, she packed up her stuff. Leaving out her permission slip, which she doubted would get signed, and report card, which she was very proud of. With that done, she left for her room to drop off her backpack and wash up for dinner, which by the smell, was almost done.
