CHAPTER TWO

Okayyy, I forgot to do this thingy in the last chapter :PP ((leave it to me to forget something. Lol.))

Disclaimer: I do not, in any way, own Inuyasha, or any of its characters. But I DO own Cassandra :))

A/N: I know the last chapter was kinda short and…ended "abruptly." Sorry about that. I'll try to make

the next ones longer. PROMISE! And I hope it doesn't take me this long to update again. Eek!

I looked around the unfamiliar house. Well, every house is unfamiliar to me. Sometimes, when I'm trying to sleep, I imagine how it would be like to live in an actual home for once. Not an abandoned one or anything along those lines, but one with a loving family. And an actual bed. Oh…a bed.

The girl, Kagome, looked at me. But not the way most people look at me, like a freak, an outsider. But just with curiosity.

I kept my mouth shut. I didn't want to say the wrong thing and get reported, and then DEPORTED. I don't know if they could do that-since not even I know where I'm from. My life just seems like a mystery. I've been roughing it like this for as long as I can remember. And I look…different than everyone else in Japan. Maybe that's the reason people look at me all funny, cause I ain't from the same race.

Yeah, and pigs have suddenly sprouted wings and are taking over the sky. Who am I kidding? I look like I live In a freaking Dumpster.

Kagome broke the everlasting silence. "So…do you live around here?"

I looked at her. Just looked at her, didn't even make an attempt to answer her question. Yeah, I know. It seems rude. But imagine if you're in my position. Would you want to tell someone you just met that you line an oak tree? No? I didn't think so.

"Do you go to school?"

No answer.

"So, you're a…-"

"A street kid? Yeah, I am." I looked away from her face.

She didn't seem to register what I said, cause she didn't say anything about it.

"Are you hungry?" She asked.

I looked at her, just to make sure she wasn't playing a cruel joke. She smiled at me, her eyes filled…with something I've never seen. She was being sincere.

I couldn't stop the smile on my face. "A little?"

A/N: Alright, I hope this one's better. Thanks to the help of Silent Scribe. ^_^ Thanks a bunch! And your story keeps getting better :))

REVIEW, POR FAVOR!
