"Professor, I was going to skip this class so I wouldn't have to read this to the class." a female voice asked.

"Higurashi, why do you not want to read it outloud? It's not like it's your final." the professor replied.

"Because today is exactly 13 years after I lost the one the song is about, Professor Akira." Miss Higurashi replied.

"Who did you lose exactly Higurashi? When you were 16?" Professor Akira asked.

"I don't want to relive that night. Not again." Miss Higurashi whispered, on the verge of tears. Then she fled. The class gasped.

"Class... dismissed." the male professor said as he began reading Miss Higurashi's song.

"She's grown up a lot... But she's never forgotten the pain... ? She'd almost died the night she left?" Akira asked outloud.

A now 29 year old Kagome Higurashi ran through the streets of Tokyo, Japan; heading towards her childhood home, tears falling down her face.

'Inuyasha... If fate gives me another chance I'll take it. I still love you. Oh I love you so much...' Kagome thought as she ran up the steps of the Higurashi Sunset Shrine.

She glanced at the Goshinboku, and walked up to it. She leaned over and touched it, before falling down into the ground sobbing.
