It was the next morning Kagome was blow drying her hair and going down for breakfast.
"Hey Kagome" Inuyasha said tormenting the cat. Kagome turned around and started yelling at Inuyasha.
"What are you doing to the cat? SIT!!!!"
"why do you always do that." Inuyasha said getting up.
"What are you going to do when I'm gone" Kagome asked.
"I don't know" Inuyasha turned around and started tormenting the cat again.
"Fine!" Kagome said stomping out of the room.
It was around 8:30 and Kagome was walking out the door. She was looking at the ground trying to figure out what to say to Akira when she reached the park Akira was sitting by a tree. Kagome took a deep breath a started walking towards him. Akira was sleeping leaning against the trees truck.
"Akira?" Kagome said gently. He slowly fluttered his eyes opened and looked up with his crystal blue eyes. Kagome sat down next to him by the tree. Akira looked down at his lap.
Their was a long awkward silence.
"I'm sorry" Akira said without taking his eyes of his lap
"For what" Kagome said looking up at him
"I'm sorry for what you saw last night."
"Last night you said you didn't have a choice, what did you mean by that?"
"My boss bought me from my parents and marked me as his"
"What do you mean marked"
Akira stood up and lifted his shirt so she can sea a burn scar on the lower left side of his stomach. Kagome reached and slowly traced the scare with the tip of her fingers.
"Your boss bought you? "
"mm hm" Akira nodded
"Why would your parents sell you"
"Drugs, it was an offer they couldn't refuse."
"Did they love you "
"If they did, they hade a way of sowing it."
"Does it bother you"
"You ask a lot of questions"
"Huh, yea I do. Come on lets go have some fun. Kagome stood up and grabbed his hand Akira started tripping because of the snow on the ground. Kagome took him to a small disserted beach with rocks and drift wood everywhere. Akira found a nice big piece of drift wood to sit on. Kagome was scavenging on the ground picking up rocks a throwing them back on the ground. Akira looked up at her a and tilted his head a bit.
"Kagome?"
"Yea" she said standing up strait
"What are you doing"
"Looking for rocks"
"What kind of rocks"
"Pretty ones." Kagome looked at her watch said 11:38 a.m. then she looked Akira
"Come on lets go get something to eat" Kagome grabbed his hand and dragged him to a park filled with children happy parents, and even some old couples. Akira watched everybody in the park it seemed that the outside world didn't exist everything that was bad seemed to melted away in that very park.
"Here" Kagome shoved a corndog in Akira's face.
Akira gave her a small smile and gently took it from her. They started to walk on the side walk. Then Akira started coughing he kneeled down trying to get his breath. Kagome stopped a turned around Akira stood up straight and started to rum his nose. Then he sneezed he stoop up straight trying to rub his nose.
"I think your getting a cold lets go to my house."
"No that's ok I better get back anyway."
"Oh no you don't your coming with me." Kagome grabbed his hand and started to drag him home he they had to stop some because he was coughing and sneezing when the got home. Kagome went straight upstairs, into her room, she throw Akira on her bed, the she left down the hall. Akira sat on the bed trying to catch up with her and it wasn't working that well.
Kagome walked in with a pear of grey sweat pants and a sweatshirt.
" here change into these, and get into bed" Akira looked at her wide eyed then looked at the clothes he took a deep breath and thought I wasn't worth arguing over it she would win anyways.
Kagome left and went downstairs in to the kitchen
"Hey mom where is Inuyasha" Kagome asked putting the tea pot on the stove.
"I think he went back." She said "he got board of waiting." Kagome?"
"Yea mom"
"Who was that boy you dragged up to your room."
"Akira I meant him yesterday he has a cold and his parents locked the doors to his house"
" I hope he gets better" she said, and she left the room about 10 minutes later Kagome took some tea and cold medicine to Akira she walked in her room and he was in her bed sound asleep. She put the tea and medicine on the night stand not wanting to wake him.
