Three years. Three years and Kagome hadn't come back. Shippou walked slowly through Inuyasha forest, licking the last lollipop he had.
After the first couple of days he expected Inuyasha to go to Kagome's side and bring her back. When he didn't the little fox cub hadn't spoken to him for days.
Shippou stopped walking and looked up to the sky, remembering the events that took place only a week after Kagome had disappeared.

Inuyasha and Miroku were coming back from slaying a demon. They told Sango of the demon and gave her part of the food the villagers gave them. Miroku bid farewell to Inuyasha as the hanyou made his was to Kaede's house.
Shippou quietly followed him hoping that the half-dog-half-human wouldn't smell him. He had been following the half-breed for days now. Waiting and watching for Inuyasha to jump back into the well.
Of course, Shippou trusted him like a father. But truthfully he REALLY missed Kagome, who was a mother to him. And no matter how many times Inuyasha tried to deny it the little fox demon knew that he loved her.
Days went by and there was no sign that Inuyasha would go back to the well. Shippou had given up hope too. But he was determined to get Kagome back any way he could. Even if that meant making Inuyasha fall down the well. In an attempt to get the hanyou to go to the well, Shippou stopped talking to him. Hoping to have him go to Kagome and try to figure out what was going on.
Instead, when Inuyasha didn't get a reply from Shippou he smiled sadly and walked away after patting him on his head.

The lollipop was gone. Shippou stared at the little white stick as he continued his walk. One day, He thought, One day she'll come back to us. I know it.
He turned his bright green eyes to the sky and took in the sun's warmth. It was a beautiful day. There wasn't a single cloud in the sky and a cool breeze was blowing gently. Suddenly, he smelled Inuyasha's scent by the well. Quickly he dashed over to the small clearing and saw Inuyasha reach his hand into the well.
His eyes grew watery with tears when he saw Kagome appear, holing on to Inuyasha's hand.
Without any hesitation, Shippou ran across the small field! He threw himself into her arms and cried out. She smiled at the little fox cub with tears in her eyes. Shippou looked up and to his surprise, Inuyasha was crying too. The hanyou quickly pulled the two into his arms. We're here. Shippou thought, My family is here.
