"Miroku," Sesshomaru greeted his best friend in his normal monotone voice.
"Hey Sesshomaru . So whats up?" Miroku asked eager to find out what why they couldn't get together that morning. Sesshomaru sighed not wishing to talk about his father's illness.
"My fathers sick." he said and stared up at the ceiling, studying the white paint. His eyes traced the lines of the phrase, ' Music is life'. He remembered the robe that Rin was wearing had the same thing printed on time and time again.
" Oh. Sorry. " Miroku said and his end went silent waiting for the answer from Sesshomaru.
" You don't have anything to be sorry for. It's not your fault. " He said and paused at finding himself saying the same thing that Rin had told him earlier that same day.
"Yeah. I guess. So what does he have?" Miroku asked . Sesshomaru thought of Rin again. How she was going to die anyday from something that nobody could stop from spreading it's poison in her veins.
"Leukemia." He said.
"Is he going to be okay?" He asked.
"Yeah. They said it ain't really bad. The treatments should work. And since he's a demon it will make it easier on him." Sesshomaru said. He remember again that, Rin had said she had had many different treatments she had to suffer thought for no reason. Chemo that made her hair fall out and that made her puke. It seemed cruel that whatever god out there would make somebody that young that sick.
"That's good." They was silence between the two boys. Each thoughts of their own about that greatly contrasted and greatly the same. Miroku thought about his girlfriend, Sango. He knew she had a friend named, Rin that was going to die from cancer. He had meet her a few times and she was a sweet girl that didn't deserve the fate she was handed.
Sesshomaru thought about, Rin. How he wished she was going go get better, but he knew she was done. She was going to die and he didn't know why he didn't want that to happen. Maybe because it meant that maybe his father wouldn't get better. Or maybe the feeling's he had deep down in his heart meant he was starting to like this girl that was basically dead where she stood.
These thoughts confussed both boys. They both didn't want the same two people to die without even knowing it.
"Sesshomaru!?" Both Kagome and Sango asked at the same time. Rin looked at them with confusion clearly written on her face.
"Yeah. His name was Sesshomaru." Rin said and looked between the two girls that were her best friends.
"What was he doing here?" Kagome asked Rin, waiting for an that would explain it all.
"His father has cancer." She said and covered her ears with her hands when both girls basically screamed ' What ?! ' They heard hurried footsteps and a nurse looked in the room.
"Is everything okay Rin?" She asked, her brown hair a little frizzed and her face a little red.
"Yes Mrs. Tara everything is okay." Rin said. Mrs. Tara studied them for a silent minute then left the room casting them one last glance over her shoulder.
"Rin explain what you know about Sesshomaru." Kagome ordered.
"Well. . um. . .not much. He was just walking around when I saw him and I saw him and I thought he was cute so I went to talk to him. He seemed pertty nice." Rin said and blushed at the last part.
"That is not Sesshomaru." Sango said.
"She's right. Sesshomaru is not 'nice' he's a player." Kagome went on.
"But he seemed-" Rin started but Kagome cut her off.
"Stay away from him Rin. He only uses girls just to get in their pants," she said. Sango nodded her head in agreement.
"How do you guys know all this about him?" Rin challenged, crossing her arms over her chest.
"Its common knowledge at school," Sango went on.
"Well incase you haven't noticed I ain't in school! I'm in a freaking hospital dying of some stupid cancer!" Rin cried out. Kagome and Sango looked at their best friend. They felt sorry for her. They knew she wanted to live but nothing would allow her. She was going to die and they would have to live with that.
"Rin, we're sorry." Kagome said and leaned into Rin, giving her a one armed hug. Sango leaned into Rin's other side and hugged her started to cry. Her shoulders shaking with her silent sobs. From her eyes dripped tears full of sorrow.
Then both Kagome and Sango started to cry to. They cried because they were going to lose a close friend, that had dreams like any other person, but would never become her reality.
