Holding the green basket, Jakotsu walked beside Rin as they went towards the fruits section. "Apples, oranges and grapes, what should Rin choose?" Rin said as she put a finger on her chin. "Well, what do you think you want to eat tonight?" Jakotsu asked. "Hmm, Onii-chan loves grapes. Rin will choose the grapes." She said and smiled as she grabs a packet of grapes. "Mou...Kaito nii-chan is so lucky to have Rin-chan as his sister." Jakotsu said jealously. Rin laughed at his statement. "So what are you cooking for tonight's dinner?" Jakotsu asked as they went to the meat section.
Tonight's dinner will be pork cutlet rice with creamy chicken soup."Rin said happily as she placed two pork cutlets into the basket. "That sounds delicious! I can't wait for Friday!" Jakotsu said, excited at the thought of it. Remembering that there is a little amount of shampoo left at home, Rin took a bottle of shampoo with strawberry fragrance and put it into the basket. With that, they went to the cashier and Rin paid for the items. Outside of the supermarket, they bid each other farewell and walked their own way home. Rin was walking when she passed by a bakery. She stopped to take a look of cakes and pastries on display. They looked so sweet and delicious. She walked into the bakery and after five minutes, she came out with a box in one hand and the groceries in the other. With a sweet smile on her face, she continued her way home.
"Tadaima." Rin said as she set down the groceries and took off her shoes. 'Onii-chan must not be home yet.' She thought. She walked into the small kitchen and started preparing dinner. The three of them lived in a small two bedroom apartment. It might be small but to them it was perfect, they might not have much money but with the income that Kurosawa-san worked hard as an accountant for, it managed them by. Rin also scrimp and save her pocket money so she could buy her own items without needing any extra money from her father.
"Tadaima, Rin!" Kaito said as he took off his shoes as Rin ran out of the kitchen and gave him a hug. "Onii-chan, okairi nasai, how is your job?" Rin asked happily. 'Damn! What am I going to tell her?' He thought quickly. "It was fine, Rin. Everyone treats me really well." He said and placed a kiss on her cheek. He took a sniff at the aroma and said happily, "It smells delicious! What are you making, Rin?" "Onii-chan must be tired after working so hard. Why doesn't onii-chan take a bath first before having dinner?" Rin suggested.
"Okay, Rin. I can't wait for dinner." He said happily and went to the bathroom. After a while, Kaito came out, his hair dripping wet with a towel on his shoulder. Rin has just finished setting up the dishes went Kaito walked in. "Wow, Rin. You did a great job making dinner!" He said happily as he sat on the chair. "Onii-chan your hair is all wet." Rin said as she took the towel on his shoulder and started drying his hair. "Arigato, Rin." He said happily. They sat down to a nice warm dinner, a loving family. After dinner, as Rin is washing up, Kaito was at the living room sitting in front of his laptop, talking softly on his mobile phone.
"Don't be an idiot. Just do what I ordered you to do. If the guy is smart, he would have known not to mess with me." He said in a serious tone. "Onii-chan, since you had a tiring day. Rin got you this." Rin smiled and set a plate of Strawberry Shortcake for him. "Ichigo no notta shortcake, Rin you are so sweet!" He said as he placed his mobile phone down. "Enjoy eating it, Onii-chan. Rin will go take a shower now." She said and started walking towards the bathroom. "Rin, I've used up the shampoo already." Kaito said to her. "Hai, Rin will get another bottle of shampoo." She went to take the bottle of shampoo that she just bought and went in to the bathroom.
Kaito was so delighted; in his mind he is picturing a scene. '"Kawaii, she is just too Kawaii!" He shouted towards the road where people are walking by.' He picked up his phone and continued the call while eating the strawberry shortcake. He sounds serious but inside, he was exploding with happiness. 'Ah! Didn't I buy something for her?' He suddenly remembered and searched his briefcase. Rin came out of the bathroom walking and toweling her hair dry towards the living room. "Onii-chan, what are you looking for?" She asked as she sat down next to him.
"I am looking for a hairclip that I bought for you today. I saw it on a shop while walking home from work." He answered and turned to face her. "Onii-chan you're the best! Arigato!" She said happily. 'Hmm, what's that smell? Strawberry?" He thought as he smelled something sweet. It came from Rin's hair. Immediately, he hugged her and buried his nose into her hair. "Rin, you smell like a strawberry!" He said. "Rin bought this new shampoo today." Rin said and laughed. "You suited for this strawberry hairclip then." He said and took it out from his briefcase.
"It's so kawaii!"She said happily. "How is your day in school Rin? Did anyone bully you?" Kaito asked as he releases her. "No one bullied me, onii-chan. They were nice but they were a bit rough." She said. "As long as you don't get hurt, I'm happy." He said and pats her head. They heard the front door opened and Rin ran to the genkan. "Kaito, Rin, Tadaima!" The older man no less than forty years old took off his shoes. "Otou-san, okairi nasai! How was work?" Rin asked as she hugged him. "Otou-san, you're home." Kaito said as he took the briefcase from him.
"Rin how was your first day of school? Is it fun?" He asked. "It was nice. Rin had a great time because Jakotsu nii-chan is also attending the same school as Rin and is also in the same class too." Rin answered and smiled happily. "Jakotsu nii-chan is coming to sleep over this Friday too." She told him. "Is it? That's great." He said happily. "Did you make any new friends?" He asked. "Rin had not made any but noticed a few of the classmates whom faces are familiar." She answered. "Do you know them?" Kaito asked as he placed a cup of tea for his father. "No, Rin don't remember them but they seemed so familiar." She said.
"Alright, it's getting late and both of you have to wake up early tomorrow. Both of you better go to bed early." He said. "Hai, oyasumi nasai Otou-san." Both of them said and went into their room. As Rin prepared her things for school tomorrow, Kaito was shutting down his laptop and putting it into his briefcase. Rin lies on her bed as Kaito tucked her in. "Sweet dreams, Rin." Kaito said softly and kissed her forehead. He switched off the room light and went to bed. Unlike in the Taisho estate, Inuyasha and Kouga were having a fight about Inuyasha's missing pillow.
"Will the two of you shut the hell up?!" Sesshoumaru shouted from his room. 'Why did I even come back here today?' He thought as he lies on his bed. 'Kurosawa Rin, I wonder are you sleeping right now. That beautiful face of with her eyes closed must have been a heavenly sight.'
Sitting on his bed, Bankotsu was trying to read a book but his thoughts keep on drifting off. In frustration, he slammed the book closed. "Why do I keep thinking about him?" He asked himself. He tries to close his eyes and think. 'Don't tell me I've fallen for him? That smile, that beautiful face, those beautiful hands that I yearn to hold and the soft lips I wished to touch.' He snapped opened his eyes. "No! I did not fall in love with him!" Bankotsu shouted loudly into his pillows. Hearing that, Inuyasha and Kouga became silent. "Bankotsu messed up." They both said in unison.
