Higurashi Kagome, soon to be Hojo Kagome, smiled beautifully to the camera. Posed here and there in her beautiful white gown with her friends and relatives.
It's her wedding day, with her lover from since she was a child. You could say, love at first sight. In short, today she is very, very happy.
"Yo, Miss bride, care to give me your lovely smile? And one, two, say cheers ..."
CKREK ...
"One more time. One, two ..."
CKREK ... CKREK ...
The photographer, Inuyasha Takahashi checks out the photos he has just taken. He nodded and smiled with satisfaction as he looked at Kagome, gave her thumb up.
"Nice shot! You're a beautiful bride, Miss Higurashi! Now we just wait for the groom. Alright, I'll excuse myself, Miss!" he said as he walked out and began photographing again the guests and his surroundings.
Kagome smiled as she watched him leave.
What a nice handsome young man!
'Stop it Kagome! You'll marry Hojo today!' she warned herself. Kagome chuckled. That's right! Finally! At the end of the day, she will officially become Mrs. Hojo.
By the way, speaking of Hojo, where is her future husband? Kagome glanced at her watch. The wedding will start in twenty minutes.
Hojo doesn'tt usually come late like this! Did something happen? Something ... bad?
Kagome shook her head firmly.
No! You can't think so, Kagome! Hojo is not such a person! You have to believe him, he'll come! Nothing will happen! Everything will be alright!
Kagome took a deep breath and gently patted her chest.
Everything will be alright ...
But somehow, deep inside her heart said differently.
Inuyasha, once satisfied photographing here and there, returned to where Kagome was, while checking back the photos on his camera he had just taken.
"All results are good! Feh, I'm really talented to be a photographer! Now, let's take the picture of the bride and the groom ..." His words stopped in his throat, at the sight of Kagome, the bride, sat limply. Her face was pale. Her make-up is faded. Obviously she just cried.
"Miss? What's going on? Are you alright?".
A piece of paper slid off Kagome's hand.
Inuyasha grabbed the paper before it fell to the floor. He read it quickly.
'Dearest Kagome,
I know you may not be able to forgive me. But, I can't marry you today.
I decided I would pursue my desire to continue my studies. Married is not my priority right now.
Forgive me, I'm too cowardly to say it directly in front of you.
If you don't want to see me again, I understand.
With love, Hojo'
Inuyasha read the letter once more, then his eyes fixed on Kagome, who was now staring blankly down.
Unconsciously, he growled slowly. Okay, he doesn't know Hojo. But Inuyasha had hated him.
How could he leave his future wife on his wedding day, and cancel it out of the blue? What kind of man is this Hojo? That is if he can be called a man!
"Are you alright?" he asked, gently patting Kagome's hand.
"What should I do now? My husband left me, I was not married, the guests were outside, I ..." she's sobbing uncontrollably.
Inuyasha stood up to close the door. Surely this poor girl doesn't need more attention isn't it?
He let Kagome cry for a moment, before he cleared his throat. Loud enough to make Kagome stop crying and stare at him. Inuyasha gasped in surprise at the black tears, as her mascara faded, along with her tears.
"Miss ..." he asked doubtfully. "I know this is not the right time, but, do you believe me?".
Kagome sobbed, but did not answer. However, her eyes seemed to ask him 'what do you mean?'.
"At least, I'll help you out of here. So you don't have to be ashamed to explain to the guests out there, you know ..." he said, extending his hand to Kagome.
Kagome stared at Inuyasha from head to toe several times.
And finally, she took his hand.
"Kagome-chan, she's so beautiful today!".
"I agree! She looks really happy!".
"She's getting married with the love in her life soon! Ah, I'm jealous!".
Eri, Yuka and Ayumi, Kagome's three friends, as well as Hojo's friends, they are bridesmaids today, walking threes, approaching the bride in her room, when suddenly the door of the room bursts open. A pair of man and woman, the woman in wedding dress, are running out of the room in a hurry.
So in a hurry until they passed Eri, Yuka and Ayumi just like that.
"Eh?" asked Eri.
"What was that?" Yuka connects Eri's question.
"Was that just now ... Kagome-chan?".
Eri and Yuka spontaneously turned toward Ayumi. Indeed, from her wedding dress, no doubt, it must be Kagome. However, the man doesn't look like Hojo. Very much different from Hojo.
Wait a minute! Apparently, the man, if not mistaken was the handsome photographer.
What does this mean?
Kagome ran away from her marriage to the handsome photographer?
Is Kagome having an affair?
"Hurry up! Get on the bike!".
"Why don't you try, while wearing a wedding dress like this!".
Sighing in frustration, Inuyasha starts tearing up Kagome's wedding dress.
"Eeekhh, what are you doing, you pervert!".
"Shut the hell up!" he snapped roughly while still tearing the bottom of Kagome's wedding dress, until now the bottom of the dress only reached a little over her knees.
"Kagome!".
"Kagome-chan!".
"Where are you going?".
Her friends and relatives started coming, chasing her. Panicked, Kagome hop onto Inuyasha's motorbike.
It's now or never!
"Hold on!" Inuyasha then jerked his motorbike and drove away from the wedding reception.
Takes the bride away, her wedding veil fluttering in the wind.
