Chapter Two: New Hope

The next day like the sun brought new hope for the young new mother. She had wrapped her son up in her jacket and resolved that she would find him a home. The bay slept in her arms oblivious that this was the last day he will spend with his mother. Throughout the day Anemone looked high in low for a family for her son. She didn't drop him off at the hospital cause she didn't want him to be raised in the foster system. The same reason is why she didn't drop him off at a shelter. She walked all day looking for the right person or family to take in her child. As the day begun to turn into the night, hher son who had been relatively quiet begun to whimper. The poor child hadn't eaten since birth and was beginning to feel the effects that starvation had on its little body. Seeing that her son was about to cry Anemone grew desperate.

" Sshhhhhhh hush my baby, mama is looking for you a place to live right now. I know your hungry but please just hold out a little longer."

The baby ignored her pleas and begun to wail louder, which in caused Anemone to run to an alley near by and start crying. Frustrated hungry and tired Anemone was just about to put her son in a garbage can when she noticed that she was right across from a school yard. There in the parking lot of the school was a shiny blue convertible, standing by it was a tall girl with long skinny legs, jet black hair, wearing a green and white school uniform. The girl had dumped her books in her car and ran back inside the school building. Seeing this as her last opportunity Anemone ran and placed her son in the car. She stole a sheet of paper from the young lad's bag and wrote a letter to the young lady. Then she ran back to the alley to see what will happen.

The young lady ran back out to the school. Her name was Kagome Higurashi. She was in such a hurry that she jumped in her car without realizing that she had a stow away in her car.

"I'm late, I'm late, I'm really really late. The daycare is going to be so mad at me for not picking up Souta on time."

Anemone watched as her kagome drove off with her son. She shed only one tear, and said a silent prayer as her son rode away in the sunset with his new mother.

" Be safe my son, I Know I couldn't take care of you but I will all ways love you and I hope you have a good life"

Anemone hitched a ride back to Houston never ever to see her son again.
