Chapter 7: Cutting Ties

For many years after that, they both stayed away from each other. Sesshomaru stayed away because Kagome was a human and would eventually die. What was the point of getting to know her if she would just die and leave him alone, just like Rin had?

Kagome stayed away because she did not want to be reminded of everything she had lost and everything that could have been. She was too weak and broken to be reminded of InuYasha every time she looked at Sesshomaru.

For both of them, they were cutting old ties, too devastated to do anything else.
