It had been three weeks and Inuyasha was more than ready to leave his hospital bed. Being cooped up in a hospital would irritate any person.
Kagome was going to be here to pick him up. The thought of Kagome brought a smile to his face. Ever since the accident she has been coming everyday to check on him. He savored the feeling of having someone as thoughtful as her in his life. He grinned at the thought of what Kari said three weeks ago. Kagome told him that Kari had insisted on calling her mommy, and that Kagome didn't mind, neither did he.
"Kagome…" he sighed pulling his sheets down and looking down at his leg right leg.
"Damn, I won't be able to do much in a while." He mumbled to himself, trying to sit up.
Kagome came in, a smile plastered on her face holding a bag on her right hand. She came to his side. Inuyasha looked at her and blushed. She was wearing a summer dress, flowers prints everywhere, which tied at the back; it revealed just a small piece of cleavage that would leave a man wondering.
"Pervert"
Inuyasha looked up, and hadn't notice that he had been staring at her so attentively. He blushed and looked away, a small 'Keh' coming out of his mouth. Kagome brought the hand that was holding the bag and told him to take it. Inuyasha took it and looked inside. She had brought him a change of clothing. He thanked her and she nodded and said your welcomed. The ride home was quite, an awkward position for both of the. Inuyasha coughed and decided that he should try to make conversation.
"So Kari is going to day care…" he said
Kagome gave him a confuse look that said 'you know she is going to daycare'.
"Yes she is, my friend Sango is back and she is taking over for me for a while. I guess you can say I'm taking my vacation early, neh?' she smiled
Inuyasha felt guilty, here was this woman who had been taking care of his daughter for the pass few weeks, and now is using her vacation to help him out.
"Sorry, I didn't mean for you to do so much for me and Kari."
Kagome didn't look at him, for not taking her eyes of the road.
"You don't have to apologize Inuyasha.
"Yes I do…"
"No you don't"
This angered Inuyasha. Why was this woman being so stubborn?
"Yes I do Kagome"
Kagome was trying to hold her patience. Why was this man being so stubborn?
"No you don't"
"Yes!"
"No!"
It kept going on till Kagome she had enough.
"Okay your forgiven now can you stop apologizing! Please" She emphasized the word please.
"Fine" Inuyasha said crossing his hands to his chest, a pout on his face, making look like a child who had just been scolded of something wrong.
Kagome stifled a giggle.
'He looks so cute'
Inuyasha looked out the window and wondered where they were headed.
"Kagome where are we going?" he asked, truly confuse.
"We need to pick Kari up at daycare, plus I have to leave some paper work for Sango to do."
"Oh" was his only respond, going back to staring out the window.
"Also I want to take Kari to go get some ice cream if you don't mind" Inuyasha told her that he didn't mind at all.
Soon they arrived at the day care. Kagome got out and headed inside telling Inuyasha to wait inside the car. Inuyasha grunted and said fine, not like he could move if he wanted too.
He glanced out the window, bored. Lots of people walked by and Inuyasha decided to count how many walked by to pass some time.
"1, 2, 3…"
Kagome walked into the day care, saying a few good mornings and hello's on the way to her office. Sango was in her desk, speaking with someone in the phone line. The woman had long brown hair, which was down and her head was almost a heart-shape face, her lips painted light pink matching her eye shadow. The woman looked up and smiled. She told the person good bye and hung up the phone, turning her attention to Kagome.
"Kagome, how is your boyfriend doing?" she said, which only made Kagome blush
"He is not my boyfriend; we are just friends, okay Sango"
"Right… Friends with benefits I presume..." She winked
Kagome turned another shade of red and told Sango to stop. Sango stopped and asked her what she wanted. Kagome had nearly forgotten and took out a folder out of her hand bag.
"These need to be process and also see send the newsletters to the children's parents about six to seven year olds to be enrolled in kindergarten." She handed the papers to Sango; Sango scanned through some sheets and told her alright. Kagome smiled and told her she was taking Kari Takahashi home. Sango nodded and added a comment before Kagome left out the door.
"Oh you mean your daughter right…" Kagome turned around and smiled
"Yes my daughter" Sango was taken aback expecting for Kagome to deny it, but to her surprise she didn't.
"That man must be something special" She said to herself and began to do work on what she was doing.
Kagome found Kari. She was playing by the sand box, singing to herself.
Kagome came up behind her and surprised her, Kari giggled and hugged Kagome.
"Mommy, look I built a castle" she indicated to the sand piled up like a pyramid.
"This is where mommy, papa and me are going to live" she continued
Kagome blushed at the thought of it.
"Alright, Kari we have to go, your father is waiting for us in my car, come on" Kagome grabbed the little girl by the hand and headed outside.
"Where are we going mommy?" Kari said picking up a weed flower from the grass.
"How about we go out for ice cream"
Kari jump up and down from enjoyment
"I like strawberry" She said
Inuyasha was beyond bored. He had counted 102 people. Another person he notices was coming up the rode. It was a man and a woman. He looked at the man and averted his gaze to the woman to the side of the man. His breath hitched. He rubbed his eyes trying to see if what he was seeing was just a mirage.
" That woman she looks just like Kikyo" The woman had Her hair was long, falling to her waist, two strands falling over her shoulders just as his wife always use to have it. Her smile was a content one. No mistaken, was that woman Kikyo.
Inuyasha tried to get out from the car, before the couple cross the corner, but to no avail.
" Damn , Damn , Damn…" He hit the window. The figures were gone by now. His mood a little shaken of what he had seen.
Kagome came with a smiling Kari next to her. He sat her in the back seat and tied her seatbelt, then glanced at Inuyasha who looked like he was brooding to himself. He looked at her quickly and turned his head. Kagome, a little confuse and a little hurt she got in to the driver seat. She looked at him again his back to her and decided to not talk to him. Something must have happened to make so irritated.
'Inuyasha' she thought and sighed turning on the engine and heading to the ice cream shop.
