Kagome stretched releasing her tense muscles enjoying the feel of waking to the smell of her mother's cooking and a nice comfy bed. She hops out of bed and slides on her slippers heading down stairs. Entering the kitchen kagome was attacked with hugs from her family. The air was filled with tears and joy. "Im glad your back sis," Says Souta.

"You have been staying away from those demons haven't you my granddaughter." Gramps tries to slide her a few of his sutras. "Grandpa I don't need those and im constantly around demons."

"Let's give kagome some room so she can eat." Ms. Higurashi pushes gramps and Souta to their seat. So they could have dinner. "So mom how did this happen?" kagome asks using her chopsticks to motion between her and this new guy. She wants her mom happy but she wanted to be a part of it. Including the families secret of the well, how do we know we can trust him with it?

"Oh well we just bumped into each other at the steps of the shrine while I was carrying groceries. It was love at first sight." Ms. Higurashi rests her chin in her hand having dreamy eyes remembering the day. "Well I and kagome dear will be getting to know each other out of Tokyo tomorrow."

"I think that is a great idea so you don't have to worry about your old friends stopping you." Ms. Higurashi says excitedly. "Oh kagome im so happy that you and Phillip will get to know each other better. I would love for my daughter and my fiancée to get along."

"Of course mother I just want you happy." Kagome says enjoying her mothers smile.
