Why do humans go back to the ones that hurt them? What is the thing that makes them want to go back? Who don't they trust? How do they get over such heart breaks?
"When will I learn?"
Kagome ducks her head under the water in her small, pristine bath tub in her two bedroom, one bathroom apartment which she shares with her current best friend, Sango, in the middle of Tokyo, Japan.
The sound of a fist beating on the oak door brings the young priestess out of her thoughts and back up above the water.
"Kagome! I know you're going through a lot, but your phone is going nuts out here and you're more than likely a prune by now!" Sango yells through the door as she holds Kagome's vibrating smartphone in her hand. She looks down at the caller I.D and rolls her eyes at the name.
"Who's calling?" Kagome asks as she drains the tub full of water and wraps a white towel around her body.
"InuYasha." Sango says with a groan, not trying to mask her annoyance. Kagome giggles as she runs a brush through her raven black hair.
"I'm presentable." Kagome says and watches from the corner of her eye as Sango walks in with a hand over her eyes. She rolls her eyes at her friends' childishness. "You've seen me naked so chill." Sango laughs at the statement and uncovers her eyes as she hops onto the bathroom sink counter.
"So why is 'Yasha blowing up your phone? Well, what did he do this time I should be asking." Sango looks down at the cell phone as it vibrates again but from a text message.
"'She's not you, okay? I said I was sorry so answer the phone already!'" Sango reads the message aloud which makes both girls roll their eyes in inoision.
"He was hanging out with Kikyo again. But this time I caught those two kissing." Kagome says without any emotion in her voice or on her face.
"What are you going to do now?" Sango asks carefully, knowing full well that it's a very subject to touch on. She plays with a piece of her chocolate brown hair that fell out of her messy bun that rests on the top of her head. Kagome sighs as she places the brush down on the sink gently and looks into Sango's dark brown eyes with her sky blue eyes.
"I'm going to drop him like a bad habit and show him that I don't need him nor will I ever need a man." She says darkly as she walks out of the bathroom and into her bedroom which is right across from the bathroom. Sango watches her go and waits for the expected door slam, but it never happens. Taking that as her cue, she hops off the counter and rushes into Kagome's room.
With a running start, Sango launches herself onto Kagome's queen sized bed that is in the middle of her cream white room. At the sound of Kagome's laughter, she sits up from the bed with a big grin on her face.
"Dang girl." Sango says with a whistle as Kagome walks out in her underwear. Kagome throws her damp towel at Sango with a laugh. "You act like you've never seen me in my underwear before." She says as she turns around the put on a gray long sleeve shirt. As she raises her arms up she winces and hopes that Sango didn't see it. She did.
"Kagome. What the hell is that on your back?" Sango demands as she stands up from the bed and walks over to Kagome. She lightly touches the black and blue bruise that is on her upper shoulder closest to her neck. Kagome jerks away from her touch and quickly puts her shirt on.
"When I confronted InuYasha about what happened, he might've grabbed me by the shoulder roughly… But he was mad and he wasn't in the right state of mind. Plus he is half-demon." Kagome sputters out quickly, trying to make light of the situation at hand.
"Kagome Higurashi. Being a half demon does not give him the okay to put his hands on you!" Sango shouts, very upset at the fact that he sister-like friend has been going through this without her knowing.
"I know. Just… let me deal with this okay? I'm heading over to Sesshomaru's. I forgot to give him a file that was handed to me as I was leaving Tashio. Corp today." Kagome grabs a pair of white skinny jeans and pulls them over her creamy legs. She throws on a pair of black, felt, high-heel boots on.
"Alright fine. But um… why are you wearing makeup to your boss's house?" Sango says with a smirk as she follows Kagome over to her vanity table. Kagome rolls her eyes at her 'sister' and continues applying black eyeliner around her eyes and adding some red color to her lips.
"Oh give me a break. We've been friends ever since that one time Inuyasha was going to take me out to dinner, but had me stop by his and Sesshomaru's place so I could wait for an hour for him to get ready." Kagome and Sango both laugh at the memory of that disaster of a date.
"Doesn't that count as a date with Sesshomaru since he made you tea and everything?" Sango laughs. "I guess so since Inuyasha ended up forgetting about me in the end." Kagome joins Sango in the laughing fit.
"Well hot stuff, you should probably head over there since I'm going to be heading into the office now." Sango says with a sigh as she tightens her ponytail.
"Why? Is there an issue?" Kagome asks as she grabs her rather large, black leather purse and hangs it over her shoulder.
"Yeah. Some idiot intern messed up the computer system so now it's my job as the consultant to fix his stupid mistake." She says with a grumble. Kagome giggles as they leave their apartment and walk towards the elevator that is at the end of the hallway on the second floor of the apartment complex.
"Are you seriously going to the office in sweatpants and a sweatshirt?" Kagome asks in a laugh. Sango looks down at her outfit and shrugs with a laugh.
"It's my day off and I have to go in. I'll wear whatever in the hell I want to wear." They laugh as they descend to the bottom floor of the building. Once the doors open, they both groan in sync.
"Kagome. I need to talk to you." The white haired, puppy dog eared man says as he holds orange tulips in his hands. He steps forwards as the girls leave the elevator. Sango glares at him as she walks past him and towards main doors grumbling something about a dumb dog.
"There is nothing to talk about so leave me alone." Kagome says as she tries to follow her friend out of the building but he steps in front of her.
"Please. Just let me explain, okay? You see, she couldn't breathe so I was simply-" His sentence was cut short as a hand slaps him hard across the face.
"Spare me the lame ass excuse. I'm done with you. If you want to hang out with a tramp, then be my guest because I'm not holding you back." She says as she stomps away and towards her black Audi A8 that was parked out by the doors. Unlocking the doors, she hops inside and speeds away, leaving a shocked half youkai behind.
