Rin rolled over in bed, trying to sleep. 'Dammit, this is the third time tonight I've woken up. It's not even the brats fault this time!' Rin thought, sitting up. ' May be I'm just lonely.'

At 6 months old Toushiro know slept through the night. Although, acording to doctor Yiu, he was still smaller than average and got sick often.

'Like now.' she thought sourly. ' The brats sick again, thats the third time this month. Brats more trouble than he's worth.'

Rin walked into her kitchen and started making herself a sandwhich, for some reason she was hungry more often.

' I'm gonna have to go shoping again.' she thought, eating her sandwhich and watching the sun rise. For once feeling content.

The moment was broken by the sound of crying.

~A~

After dropping Toushiro off at doctor Yiu house and paying the fee, Rin set off toward the market before her shift started.

Rin was walking through the market looking for food when she heard something, she paused listening.

"Did you hear about what happened to the Hitsugaya family?" one woman asked to the small group of woman.

"Who are we talking about?" another lady asked walking up to the group.

"The Hitsugaya family, well mostly Hitsugaya Rin, but her husband killed himself and another guy, something Aiyu." another said.

"Why would he do that I thought they had a child?" a woman in a blue shaw asked.

"She does, I've seen him, small little thing, his name's Toushiro. He doesn't look anything like Toma, Rin's late husband, he looks more like Rin and the guy Aiyu." said a tall, thin, boney woman.

"You don't think?" the woman in the blue shaw asked, horrified.

"I do." the tall woman nodded, face solemn.

At this point Rin left, face red. ' Who are they to talk about me?' she thought outraged. 'They have no right to say anything.'

Rin was tempted to march up to the group of woman and slap all of them, but, even if it made her feel better, it would only cause her to get thrown out of the market, she would become late for work and deep down she knew a little bit of what there implieing was true. So intsead she just grabbed everything she needed, payed and then walked away, head held high.

Work was brutal that day. Not only did Rin burn two dozen pastries but a new employee had spilled dish water on the food Rin was preparingCausing both of them to get chewed out by the head chef. Not to mention she now had to get up earlier than usual because of that clumy idiot of an employee.

All in all, Rin wasn not in the mood to deal with the screaming baby currently occupying her arms.

'I swear to god if he doesn't SHUT UP! she thought praying to whatever existing deity to have mercy and shut the. Damn. Baby. UP!

Toushiro continued to cry.

" SHUT UP!" Rin sreamed snapping, as if hearing his mother snapping Toushiro luckily stopped crying.

' Finally' she thought relieved. However she wasn't taking any more chances. So in a snap desicion she walking out of her house and dropped Toushiro off at a confused doctors house.

She spent half the night drinking.


AN: Sorry I made a mistake in the last chapter, it's not pre-nadal depression ( I spelled it wrong anyway, prenatal depression is the correct spelling) it's POST PARTUM depression. I had read a page about both and got them mixed up. Sorry for those who wanted to look up prenatal depression. Oh and thank you Devonne (for catching my mistake), shadowshed, Tsukihime Nee, lalulweeb914, and ninja2k.
