"Leave..." Rukia murmured, "GET OUT!" screaming as she pushed Ichigo out of the room roughly.
Moments ago...
"Ichigo, you're home!" Rukia said, hiding her excitement. It had been a long time since Ichigo had returned home this early, and this made Rukia happy.
"Yea..." Ichigo replied effortlessly.
Rukia offered Ichigo dinner, which he accepted. Soon after, Rukia brought Ichigo to their room.
"Ichigo... I have some news to tell you-"
..but she was cut off. Ichigo was kissing her passionately, Rukia wanted, no. Rukia needed to tell Ichigo the news, it was important, it was regarding their future, but slowly, Ichigo just pushed her on the bed and started a making out session.
"I-Ichigo..." Rukia muffled a moan, "S-Sto-...Stop..."
Then, it happened.
"Inoue... I love you" Ichigo called out.
Immediately Rukia's eyes widen, she mastered all of her strength to push Ichigo off, and had succeeded. By the time ichigo registered what he had done wrong, it was already too late.
"R-Rukia..! I-I didn't mean to! I can explain!" Ichigo shuttered hastily, hoping Rukia will give him a chance.
"You...! And that.. that bitch!" Rukia stopped after she felt an unknown force brushed the left side of her face.
Ichigo slapped her.
"Don't you dare call Inoue a bitch!" Ichigo said sternly.
Rukia felt at loss of words, she couldn't look at Ichigo in the eye, she couldn't even face him! Tears threatening to spill out any moment now, so that was the reason... she, that woman was the reason... The reason why Ichigo had been returning home later than usual. the reason why Ichigo hasn't been eating with Rukia lately, claiming he had dinner in the office. The reason why Ichigo wasn't paying attention to Rukia nowadays. The reason why Ichigo's eyes were not looking at Rukia anymore. The reason to why Ichigo had slapped her.
"Leave..." Rukia murmured, "GET OUT!" screaming as she pushed Ichigo out of the room roughly.
Back to the current moment...
Rukia slammed the door and locked it, her legs had gave up on her as she slid down behind the door, sobbing continuously. Tears that flooded her face, she cried herself to sleep. Ichigo laid on the sofa that was located in the living room, thinking about what had just happened. I... hit her... I hit Rukia... why... Ichigo thought, then Orihime popped out in his mind. Orihime Inoue was the reason that they are having this fight. Ichigo even ignored or avoided Rukia at times now... all because of this woman.
The next morning, Ichigo woke up by the sound of his phone ringing, from Orihime Inoue. Ichigo picked up his phone and answered.
"Yea...?"
"Kurosaki-kunnn! Where are you?" Orihime squealed over the phone .
"Huh...? Oh, I don't think I would be going to work today. Help me cancel every schedule I have today, thanks..."
"O-Oh... okay then, bye Kurosaki-kun." Orihime hung up.
Ichigo grunted, he wanted to lay back down on the sofa which he seemed comfortable in, but the door bell rang. He grunted again, it was his father and sisters, Isshin along with Karin and Yuzu.
"I~CHI~GO~!" Isshin flew a kick towards his son, who dodged it as usual.
"What do you want old man?" Ichigo spat.
"Ichi-nii, aren't you suppose to be at work...?" Karin asked.
"... I decided to take the day off..."
"Have Rukia told you the news yet? We actually came to check on her condition!" Yuzu said excitedly.
"...What news?" Ichigo asked as he recalled how much Rukia wanted to tell him about it last night.
"Come on Yuzu~ I'm sure my idiotic son knows that his wife is pregnant!" Isshin laughed.
"True..." Karin muttered.
"Wait... What?!" Ichigo shouted as his brain finished interpreting the words that came out of his father's mouth.
"Huh...? Don't tell me you didn't know Rukia is pregnant!" Karin yelled.
Ichigo's eyes widen, he ran up stairs, in search for Rukia. Well, Unlucky him... he slammed their bedroom door open, she wasn't there. No... it can't be..! Ichigo rushed towards the closet, Rukia clothes are gone. No! This can't be happening! Ichigo thought as he dropped down on the floor. Upon Ichigo's weird reaction, his family rushed up as well, they saw Ichigo kneeling on the floor, hands covering his face.
"What's wrong Onii-chan?" yuzu asked worriedly.
"She... She... isn't here..." Ichigo mumbled.
"Oh... Where did she go? What time will she be back?" Yuzu asked again.
"she... won't..." Ichigo gulped, "she's gone... she ran away..."
