InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ I Remember That Day So Well... ❯ I Remember That Day So Well... ( One-Shot )
[ P - Pre-Teen ]
I remember that day so well, the day I came back. I was so happy when the blue of the portal opened for me once again after three years; taking me back to you, Inuyasha. I still couldn't believe it as a looked at the summer sky of sekoku jidai. I was finally back. My heart raced as I pulled myself up the vines, and there you were with you hand reached out to pull me up, just like the old days. Being back into your arms made me swell with joy; we could finally share our future together. Or so I thought.
Your look of pain in your eyes was the same as mine as you pushed me away to explain; you were married. I remember what you told me so well; that Kikyo was brought back to life when the well sealed; that you thought I would never return again. So you married her and began a life together. My heart was torn in two.
I waited for you, Inuyasha. I never strayed away from you and never thought of being with another. I turned down so many guys during those three years, because I loved you and will always loved you. That's why I wasn't mad. You still loved her and she was here while I was there. I missed out. You broke my heart Inuyasha, but I did not show it.
I remember when I first saw her. She looked so happy to see you. Then she saw me. She looked like she was about to cry. As we got closer, I noticed her bulge in her stomach; she was pregnant with your child. She was the one who gave you a home and a family. That was something I had always dreamed of doing, but I missed out.
It was then I realized that my duty in the past was over. I thought I would have been the one to call you husband, but fate I guess didn't agree. But I couldn't go back. The well granted my final wish and I new that. That night when you tried to kiss me, it was so hard to push you away. But I had too. You were married to the woman you loved.
It was so hard to see you with her. Living your life and being happy. I'm so sorry I came back, Inuyasha. I just made you confused. I couldn't take you away from her; that would have not been fair for her. She had already been through so much. Just like you, she deserved happiness. Though it hurt, I did my best to let it go. But I couldn't, because I loved you so much that I couldn't stand it. That is why I became a miko, Inuyasha. Kaede was old and you were married, there was nothing else for me to do.
I cried myself to sleep every night. I was so lonely. I had no one there to take me into their arms to comfort me. Sango and Miroku live far away, and Shippo was living his own life. Kikyo didn't like you being with me. I could understand; I didn't like you hanging out with her.
When your baby was born, and I had to be the midwife, I lost it. When I saw you cradling your wife and daughter with a smile on your face, I knew I was just in the way. That is why I took my life.
Oh, Inuyasha, the face you made when you saw me hanging from the tree almost made me regret it. The way you cried as he held my still form made me realized you still loved me and that made me happy. You begged me to come back, but I couldn't do that, my heart was broken enough. So forgive me, my love, it was the only way.
In my final note, I asked you to scatter my ashes; Kaede told you it was because I didn't want some demon to bring back to life. But that was not it. I wanted you to release me to the wind so that you could move on; And so that I could as well. I will always love, even though I never told you. I knew, in away, that you already knew.
So live on, Inuyasha, with your wife and your daughter, who I am honored to say you named Kagome. Live, be happy, and free. That is my last request. Move on and let me be free, free as the wind in a summer breeze…
The sun was setting as Inuyasha watched Kagome's ashes flow away. Tears were running down his tan cheeks as he whispered, “It wasn't supposed to be like this, Kagome… Wait for me. One day I will go where you are, but not today. Just wait a little longer…”
I will, Inuyasha… I will…
