Angel Tears
(AU/Angst)
-
Rain… dripping down the foggy window like tears from heaven. "Do angels cry, mommy?" she'd once asked. "I thought heaven was a happy place."
The widow's face had darkened and she turned to stare out the window. "Perhaps," she'd said, "those are tears of sympathy for us mortals who experience so much sadness in life."
Kagome sighed and rested her elbows on the windowsill, her nose against the cold windowpane. Maybe angels that were rejected on earth are crying for me…
Her eyes drifted to her framed senior class picture. Inu-Yasha's arm was around her…but his eyes were on Kikyo.
