:Previously:
That little caring hug made little Shippou burst into tears and grab onto InuYasha's fire rat cloth.
“Daddy, I want mommy back!” He cried, making everybody in the room stare at the little kitsune then at InuYasha, who in turn looked over shocked. Then InuYasha looked at the little kitsune and few tears fell down his face as well.
“I do to Shippou,” he spoke for the first time in hours, “I do to.”

:Kagome's Era:
After my bath I was feeling better, only on the outside though…
When I got dressed and walked down stairs my head hung down like a broken child, my mother was on in the same spot she was in when I went to take my bath. She got up when she heard her daughter walking down the stairs, “Kagome, dear, are you o.k?” My mother asked worriedly.
“No, mama.” I said in a broken voice as I walked into her mother's open arms, again.
“Shh, baby, care to tell me now what happened?” My mother asked.
“H-Hai.” I said coming out of her mother's arms and walking to the couch to sit down, my mother followed me.
I took a deep breath and began my story, about InuYasha and Kikyou, how she told everybody she was leaving, and when she told InuYasha she loved him. I started to cry again and my mother gently placed me into her arms. “You don't know what it feels like,” Kagome started, “every time he goes to her. I feel as if my heart is breaking into a million peaces.”
“You would be surprised, Kagome.” My mother said, “Your father and I had the exact same thing happen to us.”
Kagome looked interested, well, as interested as she could with tears running down her face. “H-How mama?”
“Well,” she started, “Make your self comfortable.”
I nodded and snuggled into the fluffiness the couch. “O.k.”
“Now your father and I where not very good friends at first,” I looked at my mother questionably. “alright we where the worst of enemies. He was always dressed up in the punk-rock way and I bright colors, not preppy mind you. (I dislike PREPS! Eww...) When we had to do a child project together-- you know like you have to live at the other's house for a week the change houses and work together with a flower sack? We where pissed. Our teacher thought it was funny to put your father and me together.
“We hated it at first, he never did anything, always watching TV or playing with his band. Until I blew up and yelled at him telling he better put some work into our project or I would do something drastic. I think he was surprised, nobody dared to talk to him like that, I earned his respect and he started to do some work.
“We started to get closer, us going to his house or mine after school. When the time had come we passed our test with flying colors, `we looked like a real family' our teacher said, well, as we could as two teens and a flower sack.” My mother giggled, like a school girl.
“Even when the project was over we keep seeing each other. My parents weren't really happy about that, but when they saw how much he had changed for me, he started wearing brighter colors and started becoming more opened. They gave him a chance.
“When your father asked me out for the first time it was so cute, he was a little jumpy and fidgeted a lot.” (KAWAII! You can tell if a guy likes you a lot if he fidgets when he asks you something. -nods- YEP, KAWAII!)
This was when I realized this wasn't a regular story. “Um… mother?” I asked, “How is this like InuYasha and me?”
My mother's once joyful face disappeared to a serous one.
“Kagome, you would be surprised. He has gone through a lot for you, a lot to keep you alive.” Just as her face turned serous it tuned to joyful again. “Now where was I?”
“Your first date?” I said more like a question than anything, still thinking of what my mother said.
“Oh, yes.” She began, “On our first date your father took me to a very nice restaurant and then we walked around the nearby lake. When it was time to take me home he walked me to the door, looked into my eyes, and bent down and kissed me.” My mother sighed, “It was my first kiss, too. When he pulled back he was blushing, as along as I. He asked if he could see me tomorrow at school by the sakura tree, and I said yes. He smiled and walked toward his car, I could have sworn I say him skipping.” She laughed and I smiled.
“I couldn't wait till tomorrow. When I got to the school grounds I ran to the sakura tree and I say him with a younger girl about my age, she jumped into his arms and said `I love you, too!' and kissed him right then and there.” I gasped and my mother looked at me with sad eyes.
“I just stood there crying till he pulled back and looked toward me. When he saw me she had a shocked look on his face and I ran for it. I know it was cowardly, but I couldn't take seeing him with another girl.” I nodded, I knew what that felt like.
“I don't know how he caught up with me but he did and he grabbed my arm and was right about to say something, but before he could say anything the bell rang and I excused myself and ran to the restroom. I cleaned myself up and went to school.”
She sighed, “It wasn't a good day for me. After a week, I kept disappearing when he showed up, until I started avoiding him altogether, but when I got home on the seventh day I found a letter addressed to me, it said, (This is not from me! I got it from Goshaha, from FanFiction.net but I changed it a little, THANX GOSHAHA FOR LETTING ME USE THIS!)
And look deep into your eyes
Which resemble the stars
Or the aqua of the sea
That show the moon's glow in the night
And the twinkling stars
Add to the night's show.
You have sweetness there
As I can see
In those eyes
You look up to me.
I wish to kiss you
Or give you my heart
For we are one and the same
And of the same part.
I look at the moon
As I sit at home
And only see your eyes
…Waiting alone.
You wait for me
However obediently
And you wish not
You wish to be free.
Let you free, I cannot
For I'd loose you then
And those eyes I'd miss
Forever again.
I cannot say
I do not love you
For when you see my eyes
You know that it's true.
I was in tears again as my mother recited the poem. It was so beautiful. My mother started again.
“I burst into tears right then and then I felt arms around me and I turned around to stair into your father's eyes, they where full of grief and pain. He said he was sorry and I kissed him earnest then.
“Three years later he purposed and a year later we had you.” She smiled at me and put a hand on my head patting it.
“No matter how hard it seems, you should give those you love a second chance. To show them you love them, no matter how long it takes them to realize it.” She got up off the couch and looked down at me. “You think about that, dear.” She walked toward the kitchen, “Dinner going to be ready if a few minuets.”
I nodded in deep thought, `When I left them I didn't give him a chance to respond or anybody, really. I even took InuYasha's rosary off so he couldn't come and get me! So it's either I can go back or I can stay here.' I nodded, “I'll go back.” I got up and walked towards the door ready to go then, then my mother called me, “Kagome dinner's ready! Can you go and get Sota?”
`Or I can stay here tonight and go tomorrow,' Isniffed the air and started drooling, `Yes, I'll go tomorrow. I smell oden.'
“Yes, mama!” I responded, walking up the stairs.
