The days of summer passed without reason. There were no more excuses to wake up late or go to bed even later. Summer was gone and the one-hundred and eighty days of torture were about to beginning.
As like every other procrastinating person in the world was now doing, he too would be with him mom shopping for school supplies. This was senior year, yet his mother still insisted that she too would join him on his routine cycle of buying supplies. She was a bargainer. Even if it was a ninety nine cent pencil, she would `bargain' till it became eighty. But he loved her. She meant the world to him.
Looking out the window from his room, he looked onto the giant tree in between his and his neighbor's house. The leaves were soon losing its chlorophyll and turning into the dry brownish color, signaling the start of fall. Inuyasha hated the first couple days of school. Nothing would get done. All these paper's to be signed and returned; emergency contact sheets, consent forms, school calendars that his mom would hang up on the kitchen wall. This was her way of `checking' on his school activities.
A huge truck entered his neighbor's driveway. Out came a grandpa, a lady, and a little kid. Inuyasha turned his head, missing the fourth person to come out of the truck. Getting up from his seat, he went downstairs.
 
“Ma!” cried Inuyasha, reaching the bottom of the stairs.
“Ma!” he cried once again. A gentle looking woman with a plate full of brownies came forward. She looked at Inuyasha with a look of question on her face.
“I'm here, I'm here, don't scream so loud,” she said winching a little. Being the mother of a hanyou had its strengths and weaknesses. A hanyou had one of the loudest vocal chords ever. So when Inuyasha would scream, she would sometimes have to cover her ears so they wouldn't burst.
“What is it?” she asked him, wondering why he was screaming to get her attention. Inuyasha had a confused look on his face, as if he was trying to solve a difficult problem.
“Ma, since when did we get new neighbors?” he asked.
“Since the old ones moved,” she answered. Inuyasha sweat dropped. His mother was known for her obvious answers. The smell of deliciously oven baked fudge brownies caught his nose. Looking down, he noticed the tray in his mother's hand. Unknown to him, he began to drool. Along with some other things, brownies were one of his favorite snacks.
“Mmhmm..” he said in a trance like mode. His hand slowly reached over to the tray, when his mother's hand slapped his hand away.
“Nu uh, Oh no you don't. Don't even,” she said with a stern voice. And just as quickly as that came, it went away, replacing her stern voice, with a sweet, gentle one.
“This is for the neighbors,” she replied. Inuyasha mumbled. An idea clicked in his head. Looking up he gave her the infamous puppy dog face.
“Eek!” squealed his mother. She couldn't resist his face. She tried to look away, but she couldn't. His face was too adorable. She sighed with defeat. In all her years of living with him, that was one of the few things she was weak towards. Those darn puppy dog faces.
“Oh…okay fine,” she replied taking a piece of brownie from the plate, “you can have one.” Inuyasha laughed with triumph as he gulped it down. Feeling content, he decided to head out.
“Wait!” his mother replied, but before she would say another word, he was already out the door.
“Damn…” she said to herself, she would have to go over to the neighbor's house and greet them by herself. Sighing once more, she headed out the door.
 
He reached his friends house within minutes, thanks to his hanyou abilities. Climbing up the tree he reached the top and swung into the bedroom window. Plopping on the bed, he waited for his friend to come in. The door opened right on cue. There he stood reading his playboy magazine.
“ You pervert, don't you do anything else,” said Inuyasha as he threw a nearby pillow into his friend's face. Miroku fell down with a `ophm'.
“ Yo, what the hell,” he said rubbing his head. Inuyasha fell off the bed laughing. Miroku began to laugh as well. Taking the pillow he thew it back at Inuyasha. Taking the magazine he placed it in his secret compartment. If his mom ever found out, she would kill him. Either that or kick him out of the house, or ground him. Either one was worse. He turned to Inuyasha.
“You ready for school tomorrow?” Miroku asked Inuyasha. Inuyasha sighed and plopped back down on the bed.
“Are you kidding?!” he answered, “You think I want to return to that place? It's the same thing every year, nothing interesting or new happens.” He replied with a sigh. It was true. The only thing interesting that had happened last year was when one of the biology frogs from the lab escaped into the girls' locker room. Sadly it was right in the beginning of the period, so the girls had not changed yet. Miroku almost cried that day, while every other guys in the school was sighing with disappointment.
Miroku looked at Inuyasha, pushing him off the bed.
“You never know when something might happen. It is senior yet you know.” He replied. He was praying to God that something might happen; something that would give off their senior year with a bang. They guys both decided to play video games for the rest of the time.
 
Inuyasha got home around eight thirty at night. Entering the house, he saw his mom putting the leftover brownies back in the oven. He sat down and asked her what she did today, while eating another brownie.
“Oh I went over and met the new neighbors,'' she replied. She had this unusual smile on her face. She seemed extremely happy. Inuyasha noticing this took a couple of brownies that were on a plate in front of him. He was soon indulged in the deliciousness of the brownie and he didn't hear what his mom was saying.
“They have a sweet girl over there. She's about your age. They're planning on sending her to school tomorrow. So you two could make friends,” she said to him, smiling even more. She hadn't noticed that he had taken the rest of the brownies and went upstairs.
“You never know. You guys could be friends and then maybe, you know maybe be girlfriend and boyfriend. And then maybe you two could get married and give me grand kids!” Ms. Takashi squealed with delight, there were stars in her eyes. Turning around and she asked,
“Huh? Huh? What do you think?” she asked with excitement. When she noticed no on was there, she fell to the ground.
“ Aww…he's never here…” she said.
