Chapter 3

Rin sat at her desk at work while sipping her normal morning tea. She had done most of her work for the morning seeing as there wasn't nearly as much with her brother being back to help take some of the load off of her desk. Rin leaned in her seat just as the door to her office was opened and that should mean one of two people was at the door because no else was that bold to do such a thing. Rin looked up to see her brother Risu walking toward her desk and placing both hand firmly on her desk.

"Is it true?" Rin sighed knowing exactly what her brother was referring to. She looked at him while laying her hands on her laced fingers that where supported by her arms on her desk.

"It would appear so Risu," she replied in a calm voice "I can't stop the man from coming back to Tokyo now can I? Besides he does own the number one company in Japan it would be tacky of him not to make an appearance if he is in fact back in town." Risu released the breathe he didn't know he was holding and fell back into the leather chair in front of Rin's desk,

"I know you can't but I just don't like the man after all he did.. I just can't believe he's back in our lives." Risu said in a defeated voice.

"That's where you're wrong he is not in our lives in a personal way he is only in it professionally and that is the extent I will allow him into our lives. He maybe Nami's father but he left so he has no right to want more than what he has," Rin said in a monotone voice while relaxing in her chair. She had come to terms with her unavoidable meeting with Sesshomaru she was now only waiting to hear what he had to say or more what bull he had to say.

"I know that but if you need help I'll be there to help," Rin reached over the desk and grabbed Risu's hand that was balled into a fist on her desk. He looked up at her to see a look of pure relief and happiness,

"Thanks Ri but he's my problem to deal with. Besides he probably gave up on getting into her life at this point he hasn't tried to call in years," Rin said still holding her brother's hand. He squeezed her hand back not knowing what to say to help close her still open wound over this man. Risu could do nothing but feel hate for the man that caused his sister so much pain.

"It'll be okay Rin. Nami knows she loved greatly by us," Rin looked at her brother with a halfhearted smiling thinking back to Nami's face covered in tears from not knowing her father. She sighed at this taught but didn't want to tell Risu about it right now.

"Thanks bro, she does know that but she still needs a father but I just don't know what to do about…" she was interrupted by her office phone ringing. She picked it up, "Hello…Hi Sango. Yes I would enjoy that," she looked at her small silver Gucci watch, "Yeah I'll meet you in twenty…okay then bye." She hung up the phone before looking at her brother. "Well it seems as though Sango would like to have a small spa day before tonight so I think I'm going to get pampered and take myself out of my brain for a few hours," Rin said with a smile. She gave Kagome a quick call asking did she want to go to which she received a squeal of joy before hanging up and standing to hug her brother who towered over her 5'9 form compared to his 6'5 one. "I'll see you tonight," he shook his head in reply as she walked out of her office with the brother in tow closing the door.

...

Rin relaxed back into her massaging chair as a woman did her toenails in a nude color and another woman did her nails in the same color. She looked over to her two close friends one being Sango who is the wife of Miroku one of the wealthiest men in Japan and Kagome who was her best friend since a young age and who she would do anything for no matter what it was. Sango turned toward Rin and smiled,

"Isn't this nice just a day relaxing with the girls?" Rin and Kagome nodded together between massages, spa baths, facials, and many other treatments on Sango as a treat the girls had quiet enjoyed their day. It also gave Rin some time to get out of her head about what was going to happen tonight.

"Yeah maybe now I can find me some rich man who will sweep me off my feet, "Kagome joked to her friends.

"You never know maybe you will. Isn't that right Rin maybe you could too ," Sango said between laughs. Rin gave her the evil eye,

"For your information I am quite happy with my life and I do not work that much and if I do it's because who else is going to do it," Rin argued to her friends.

"Come on Rin your twenty-nine you must want to at least date someone it has been eight years since you know who and I think Nami would understand," Sango retorted back. Rin rolled her eyes at that notion,

"Are you insinuating that I am getting old Sango because if I am I look damn good and for your information I have no interest in dating I have a daughter to raise and I don't want to bring men around my daughter she is still too young," Rin argued back. Sango and Kagome shook their heads as they looked at each other.

"She's going to be an old maid before she even gets out into the dating scene," Kagome sighed.

"So true," Sango agreed. Rin stared at her friends.

"First of all I am not that old. Second I will not be that old and third Nami's too young I don't; want to confuse her she doesn't know that her father left us," Rin finally admitted the last part to her best friends in a whisper. They looked at Rin as if she had said she wanted to burn the building down.

"Really Rin?" Kagome said in shocked tone.

"Yes, I just don't think she's old enough to understand what's going on and I don't want her to know right now… so please don't judge me. I'm going to just not right now," Rin put her head down in shame. That's when Sango brought up the one topic she didn't want to talk,

"Speaking of him I heard he's coming tonight are you okay," concerned laced her voice. Rin looked at her with a small smile,

"I'll make it. It's just one night, "she said with as much confidence as she could muster. Sango nodded in approval and grabbed her hand to let her know she cared and understood. Rin looked at her with thanks in her eyes.

"Let's get this finished then off to get some lunch," Sango said and the girls shook their heads in agreement.

….

The girls sat at their favorite restaurant in town Kozue. They talked and laughed to each other. During the conversation Sango looked at Rin,

"Hey Rin you remember that photo-shoot for that magazine you did?"

"Yeah, I do what about it?" Rin inquired not knowing where this was going. She was asked to pose for a business magazine article about who she was and where see came from nothing out of the ordinary in her opinion she had do it a thousand times at this point. Sango didn't reply she just reached inside her Louis Vuitton tote bag and pulled out the magazine.

"Well you look really hot in this picture," all the girls gasped at the picture on the front cover. It was Rin she had on her small glasses which still showed off her smoky eye makeup and her hair down flowing out around her. She was in a purple satin button down shirt with the top bottoms undone with a long gorgeous black necklace hiding her cleavage from view. She was sitting on her desk overlooking the city with a folder being held in her perfectly manicured hands with one of her legs crossed over the other in a pair of black dress slacks and black pumps.

"Wow Rin you look hot!" Kagome said looking at Rin's surprised face. They all nodded in agreement. "Let's look at the article," she said in excitement. She turned to the page and it was a spread about her life and business. They had pictures of her in meetings and some with her daughter. They praised her for her mothering and her business.

"Looks like someone is going to be very busy tonight with all this publicity," Sango said making Rin sigh at the thought tonight was defiantly going to a long with this added ontop now.

"Yeah you're right. Let's finish our food we all have to get ready," Rin said to silence her critics.

….

Rin looked at herself in the mirror. After two hours in a hair and makeup chair she was now ready for the night. She had on a fitted red mermaid dress with a very elegant lace on the corset of the dress and the bottom was sheer red fabric covered by black lace. She had on minimal makeup and her hair was in a up do with to pieces framing both sides of her face. She had on simple black teardrop earrings and a small teardrop necklace.

"You look really pretty mommy," Nami said with glee in her voice. Rin looked down at her daughter who had on her pajamas and her hair pulled up in a ponytail; she smiled down at her,

"You think?" She said looking at herself one last time. Nami shook her head in agreement. Rin bent down in her heels and gave her head a kiss. She grabbed her small hand and led her out of her room and down to the theater room where her close friend Kohaku was,

"Alright you ready to have fun with your uncle Kohaku?" She screamed in joy as she ran to Kohaku who had waiting arms. He picked her up and spun her around before sitting her down in one of the chairs and walking to Rin.

"Thanks Kohaku I don't know what I would do without you," Rin smiled at him. He had been there for her when no one else was and kept Nami for her whenever she needed it. He was like a another brother to her; they had been together forever and her knew her better that anyone else. He looked down at her even with her six foot form in heels,

"It's no problem you know I love Nami and besides you need to go somewhere when you look this beautiful because you defiantly need a man," Kohaku laughed at Rin as she turned red at his mean comment she shoved his shoulder slightly which only made him laugh harder,

"You jerk I hate you so much! I am just fine without a man for your information," Rin whispered to avoid letting Nami hear her, "Well, I'd better get going my drivers probably waiting for me. Have a good night you too. I'll probably be home by midnight," she shoved Kohaku one more time, "Jerk, don't let her stay up all night," she poked a finger in his chest. He laughed,

"Yes mother dearest," she only shook her head at his antics.

"Goodnight Nami," Rin called to her child who was engaged by the television.

"Night mommy!" Nami called to her mom as she watched Happy Feet. Rin giggled before turning to Kohaku,

"Goodnight Rin I'll take good care of her for you," Kohaku said as she walked out the front door. She walked to her waiting Mercedes and climbed in for the long night ahead of her.

…

The party was in full swing when Rin arrived. She walked into the room filled with the most important men and women in Japan. As she walked to her group of friends in the distance she was stopped by the reporters that wanted to speak to her about the magazine article and her personal life asking her questions. She continued answering questions till Kagome came to her rescue and pulled her away with the excuse of she had business to handle. Once they where out of the reporters earshot Rin turned to her friend with thanks in her eyes and Kagome nodded back in understanding.

Once she got a moment to catch her breathe she looked at Kagome and her amazing black dress that hugged every curve in the right places and with an elegant slit up to the middle of her thigh exposing her milky skin and her Jimmy Cho pumps. She had her hair up in a high ponytail that cascaded down till it reached the middle of her back.

"You look great Kagome," Rin said looking her over once more.

"Well not nearly as good as you," Kagome said stepping back to look her over even better. "I wish I was that tall," Kagome was only about two inches shorter than Rin in truth but Kagome still wished she was taller.

"Kagome your just as tall but on another note let's go mingle I' m tired of standing in the back," Rin said as she walked toward Sango who was talking to a group of people. Kagome followed behind the upbeat women "Maybe tonight won't be that bad," both Rin and Kagome thought.

Rin was having a good time between the occasional conversation on the article in the magazine or the business. She seemed to forget about the one thing she was worried about and that was the father of her child. She decided that she wanted a drink and made her way to the bar after excusing herself. She ordered a glass of wine and smiled as she received it and took a seat to enjoy it. As she at the bar sipping her wine she let her mind relax until she heard the one voice she thought she would never hear again which made her eyes grow in shock,

"Hello Rin," she turned reluctantly to the voice to see the once love of her life. She sighed with a tired expression on her face for what she knew was coming,

"Hello Sesshomaru, it's been a long time," she took another sip of her drink.
