Mikomi is still home, sick in bed, the past few days sense Mikomi realized that family is what is most important to her had been great, her and Inuyasha have gotten along great, Mikomi has been telling her father everything that he has missed in her life and Mikomi, Inuyasha and Kagome have been watching home videos.
Today Inuyasha and Mikomi are playing Monopoly in her room on her bed and Kagome was in her studio with some clients. Mikomi rolled the dice and got a 6 "ok 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 YEAS I GOT FREE PARKING AGAIN" Inuyasha stairs at Mikomi's token on free parking (which is the money bag Mikomi's favorite, Inuyasha's is the dog which is his favorite) "you are cheating Miko" "I am not chea- cough, cough, cough- cheating papa, I am just very skilled at playing this game" Mikomi said as she puts her new money with her other money "Keh, skilled ya right" Inuyasha picks up the dice and rolls a 12.
"Alright 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12…" Inuyasha stars at where his token as landed, BORDWALK, "YEAS BORDWALK that is $2000 papa" Inuyasha looks at his money, he only has $100 and all of his properties are bankrupt "I WIN YEAS- cough, cough, cough –" Mikomi smiles as she counts her money and Inuyasha just stairs at his token. "are you shear that you are not cheating" he asked "yeap, I have never lost at this game" Mikomi said happily. "Papa?" Inu looks at Mikomi "Yes" "I was wondering why you haven't made another album in a year. All of the websites I visited said nothing about you working on anything new" "well Miko, I haven't made any new album because I haven't been able to wright any songs for a few years now"
Mikomi stoped counting her Monopoly money and looked at her dad "why?" "well I haven't had any inspirations" "Oh" Mikomi then smiles "Papa, do you think maybe you and I can wright a song together some day" Inu smiles "I'd like that and I listened to your CD and I love the music" Mikomi's smile widen "rilly" "yea, I was thinking that the next concert I have maybe you could be the opening act" "I would love to papa" Mikomi said excitedly. Inuyasha then gives Mikomi a challenging look and said "rematch" Mikomi gives him a challenging look back "you're on"
Mikomi restarts the board when the doorbell rang "I'll get it" said Inuyasha, he walks out into the kitchen and opens the door "hello" "Hi Mr. Takahashi, is Mikomi home" "yeas she is, she's in her room Sakura" Inuyasha steps aside and lets Sakura in, they walk to Mikomi's room. "Mikomi" Mikomi looks up "Sakura how did you get here the roads are covered in snow" "not any more, my mom dropped me off" "you want to play monopoly with me and papa"
"Papa?" "ya a few days ago I guess you could say I smarten up" Sakura laughed "shear I'll play" Sakura and Inuyasha sat on the end of Mikomi's bed, Sakura grabbed the cowboy token and placed it on GO, Mikomi gave her father and Sakura their money "so how did you smarten up" Mikomi told Sakura the whole story as they played monopoly.
It is 5pm and Kagome walked in on Mikomi, Inuyasha and Sakura playing monopoly "who's winning" "me- cough, cough, cough-" "how ya feeling Miko" "better, mostly just a cough now" "Kagome, I am so shear that Miko is cheating" "I am not cheating" "then how do you win every time" asked Inuyasha "I have been trying to figure that out since she was 6" said Kagome, Kagome kissed Inuyasha "EEEEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWW mama, papa get a room" Inuyasha deepened the kiss, Mikomi covered her eyes with her hands "aaaahhhhh my eyes my eyes"
Kagome broke the kiss laughed then went to cook supper, when supper was ready everyone ate supper in the kitchen when they were done Mikomi, Inuyasha and Sakura finished their game, Mikomi won, Sakura's mom came to pick her up at 8pm.

"YEAS I WIN AGAIN- cough, cough, cough-" Inuyasha looked at his token, it had landed on Boardwalk again "how do you get Boardwalk every time and if you don't you never land on it" he asked "I do not know" Kagome looked at Mikomi's alarm clock which read 11pm "well it's time for bed, so let's pack up the game" "but mama" "no but's Mikomi¸ you are sick and need rest" "but I'm fin- cough, cough, cough-" "you have gotten better but you still have a cold" "but-" "Mikomi it is time for bed" after that they packed up the monopoly game and everyone went to sleep.

By Saturday Mikomi was all better. Today Mikomi and her parents had just arrived at the Shikon Bowling and got their shoes and bowling balls, Mikomi is wearing a long white turtle neck swetter with a brown belt that has a metal circle in the middle at the waist line, a pair of blue jeans and a pair of bowling shoes. Kagome sat at the little computer where you put your names in and it shows your name at the screen above, first is Inuyasha than Kagome and then Mikomi.
Inuyasha went up to their lane and rolled his red bowling ball, he got a strike, Kagome got a 6, Know it's Mikomi's turn she got up grabbed her pink bowling ball walked up to the lane held up the ball, she looked at the bowling pins, then she rolled her ball, all three watched the bowling ball as it got closer and closer and closer and closer and closer than crash. Mikomi got a strike "yeas a strike" Kagome looks at Inuyasha and said "I hope that you have been practicing Yasha"
It is almost the end of the first game Inuyasha had just thrown his ball, throw the whole game both Inuyasha and Mikomi had gotten a strike every time, the ball hit the pins and they all fell except for 1 and when he tried again he got a gutter ball. "Ok all Miko has to do is to get a strike" said Kagome "that is easy" said Mikomi, she got up grabbed her ball walked up to the lane looked back at her father with a smile and said "your winning streak at bowling is over papa" she then turned back to the lane and rolled her ball and watched as it got closer and closer and closer and closer and closer and closer and closer and closer and closer and STRIKE. Inuyasha stared with wide eyes.
"YEAS I WIN" Mikomi jumps in excitement; Kagome turns to Inuyasha with a smile "she gets her talent from her father" Mikomi turns to her father with a challenging look and said "want a rematch" Inuyasha returned the look and said "you're on" so the whole day they kept on bowling and every time Mikomi won. At 5pm they decided to go out for supper so they went to a chines buffet then went out to the movies, they watched Ice Age. When they finally got home everyone was tired but had a great day together, they went to sleep with smiles on the faces.

Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep. A hand reached out from under a blanket and reached for the alarm clock but it was not there Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep. There was a groan from under the covers a head popped out and looked at the night stand which was missing an alarm clock, the head turned to the computer desk where the missing alarm clock was 'evil baka father' thought Mikomi. She got out of bed and walked to her computer desk and turned off the annoying sound that woke her up, Mikomi let out a loud yawn and stretched her arms over her head then walked to her bathroom while humming a happy tune.
She had a nice warm shower then when she got out she dried off and got dressed in a red long sleeve shirt, a pair of blue jeans and red fuzzy socks, Mikomi brushed her hair than pulled it up into a long pony tail. Once Mikomi declared herself ready for the day she walked out of her bathroom and out of her room when SMACK, Mikomi had walked straight into her bed room door "OWWWW" Mikomi walked back a few steps and realized that she had her door back.
Mikomi opened her door want walked straight to the kitchen where her parents were, Inuyasha was reading the newspaper and was snickering while Kagome was making breakfast and trying not to laugh, Mikomi walked straight to her father "papa did you put my door back up"
"yeap" Inuyasha had almost burst out laughing "What's so funny?" "you walking strait into your door" Inuyasha couldn't contain himself anymore he burst out laughing then Kagome followed "IT WAS NOT FUNNY" "yeas it was" said her laughing father
"NO IT WAS NOT" Mikomi turned to her mother who was trying to stop laughing, Mikomi then started laughing herself. After everyone had stop laughing Mikomi got Bandit his breakfast as Kagome finished making everyone else's breakfast. When everyone was finished eating Inuyasha took Mikomi to school while Kagome went to her studio.
Shikon High School
Inuyasha pulled up to the school and parked his car "here we are" he said "papa can I walk to work today" "shear as long as you come straight to work after school" "thanks papa, love ya" Mikomi gave her father a kiss on the cheek then got out of the car grabbed her side backpack and her guitar then walked up to the school. School had been good today for Mikomi she passed her math test, school is over for the day so Mikomi is on her way to work, Sakura is walking with her. "Mikomi wait" Mikomi stopped and turned around to see Trisha "hi Trisha" "Mikomi there is going to be a big party at Derrick's place"
"is his parents going to be there" "no, it wouldn't be a party if parents were there" "sorry TA I can't, I have to go to work then I have a ton of home work that needs to be done" "oh come on MK it wouldn't be a party without you" "TA I would love to come but like I said I can't come, maybe next time" Mikomi and Sakura headed on their way to Inu's Music World.
Inu's Music World
Mikomi and Sakura walked into Inu's Music World, Inuyasha was at the cash register, he looked up and smiled "why hello there princess" he said "what do you want?" Mikomi asked her father casually "why would I want something from my beautiful daughter" "ya, ya" "MK" said Sakura "yeas SD" Sakura had a smile on her face "Remember when the store first opened and when I looked at the one poster of InuYasha, I said that you looked like him?" "Ya" "well 5 years ago I told you that it was like Inuyasha could be your bio dad" "well ya can't blame me for not believing you I thought that my bio dad was dead"
"Ya I know but…I told ya so" "ok, ok I hear ya….so where do you want me to work papa" "at the cash register" "okie dokie" Mikomi went to the cash register "so Mikomi how is your nose?" Inuyasha asked, snickering, Mikomi glared at her father "what happened to your nose MK" asked Sakura "don't you dare say anything papa" Inuyasha continued to snicker, then answered Sakura's question
"last night while Miko was sleeping I put her door back up, in the morning after she got dressed she headed out of her room she failed to notice that her door was back up and closed" Sakura stared at Mikomi then started laughing "you wal…..walked in…..in to yo…..your door" Sakura said though her laughter. "PAPA" "sorry Miko but it was too funny" "well you could have told me that you put my door back before I walked into it" Inuyasha and Sakura kept on laughing. Mikomi decided to ignore them and sat down then started her homework and only stopped when a customer asked a question or came to buy something.
5:30 pm at home
Mikomi and Inuyasha walked in and smelt spaggetti and meatballs with garlic bread, they both smiled and got their winter clothes off, Bandit came rushing towards Mikomi happy that his mom/best friend is home "hi their Bandit did ya miss me boy" Bandit barked happily and Mikomi petted him, Kagome walked over to InuYasha "welcome home Inu-baby" "It's good to be home darling" Mikomi made a gagging sound, Kagome laughed then Inuyasha swooped down and captured Kagome's lips "eeeewwwww mama, papa get a room" Kagome wrapped her arms around Inuyasha and deepened the kiss "are you two trying to make me go blind".
Inuyasha brock the kiss and Kagome went to set supper on the table, after supper Inuyasha and Mikomi did the dishes the Mikomi grabbed her Music journal and her guitar then headed to the love seat and started to work on a song that she has stuck in her head; Kagome and Inuyasha just watch their daughter sing and smiled. At 8pm Mikomi is still trying to find the words to the song that is stuck in her head,
Yeah, Yeah
What you got if you ain't got love
the kind that you just want to give away
It's okay to open up
go ahead and let the light shine through
I know it's hard on a rainy day
you want to shut the world out and just be left alone
But don't run out on your faith
'Cause sometimes that mountain you've been climbing is just a grain of sand
What you've been up there searching for
forever is in your hands
When you figure out love is all that matters after all
It sure makes everything else
seem so small
It's so easy to get lost inside
a problem that seems so big at the time
it's like a river that's so wide
it swallows you whole
While you sit around thinking about what you can't change
and worrying about all the wrong things
time's flying by
moving so fast
you better make it count 'cause you can't get it back
Sometimes that mountain you've been climbing is just a grain of sand
What you've been up there searching for
forever is in your hands
When you figure out love is all that matters after all
It sure makes everything else
Seem so small
Mikomi stopped 'come on I know that I almost got the end of this song' she started to think back to the night she ran off and realized that family is the most important thing in her life, then it came to her "that's it"
Sometimes that mountain you've been climbing is just a grain of sand
What you've been up there searching for
forever is in your hands
When you figure out love is all that matters after all
It sure makes everything else
Oh it sure makes everything else
Seem so small
Yeah, Yeah
Mikomi wrote the end to her new song 'So Small' in her music journal; now she worked on the music to the lyrics. At 11pm Kagome declared it was time for bed so everyone got into their PJ's and went to bed.
Tuesday, March 8th 2016
Beep, beep, beep, beep. Like everyday Mikomi's alarm clock was on her computer desk "PAPA COUD YA PLEASE LEAVE MY ALARM CLOCK AN MY NIGHT STAND" she yelled, Mikomi got out of bed had a shower then got dressed and did her hair, then walked out to the kitchen, got Bandit his breakfast then got herself some hunny nut cheerios and sat at the table and ate her breakfast. "Papa why do you always put my alarm clock on my computer stand" "because that way you get up every morning instead of sleeping in" After Mikomi finished her breakfast Inuyasha took her to school then went to work.
Shikon High, Lunch Time
Mikomi and Sakura walked out of U.S History Class and headed to their lockers to put their books away and go to the cafeteria to have lunch "so what is your new song called MK" "it's called 'So Small', I can play it for ya at lunch if ya want SD"
"you never pass off a chance to play a new song in front of an audience" Sakura said with a smile. "ok course, I do have to practice before the family reunion" "Mikomi the Higurashi Family Reunion is about 6 months away" "I still have to practice SD" They got to their lockers, put their books away grabbed their purses and Mikomi grabbed her guitar the headed to the cafeteria "I wonder how Dom is doing, I haven't seen him much lately" "oh I bet he is doing fine probly just hanging out with his football friends" "ya, maybe me and Dom could go out and spend some time together" "that is if your father lets you"
Mikomi and Sakura walked into the cafeteria and the site Mikomi saw there broke her heart, Dominick was sitting with his football friends but what hurt Mikomi was the girl sitting next to him, she had her arm locked with his and Mikomi's hart bock even more when Dominick kissed the girl right on the lips. "Mikomi maybe we should eat by our music class that way we will be the first to enter" said Sakura but Mikomi ignored her and walked straight to her boyfriend.
"Dom?" Dominick turned to Mikomi "oh hi" "why did you just kiss Rebecca" Mikomi said getting angry "because she is my girlfriend" "but I am your girlfriend" she said hurt "didn't you get my message?" Dominick asked. "YOU BROCK UP WITH MY PHONE" "it just didn't work out with us"
"why, is it because of what happened last week?" "look it's over" Dominick did not feel sorry and Mikomi saw this on his face "Dom…YOU'RE A JURK" Mikomi than ran out of the cafeteria to her locker grabbed her winter cloths then ran outside without any way of knowing where she was going, Mikomi just wanted to get away.
5:30pm home
A very angry Inuyasha walked in "MIKOMI WHERE ARE YOU" Kagome walked out of the kitchen confused "what's wrong Inu" "Mikomi never showed up for work" "what?" "is she here" "no she isn't" Inuyasha went to the phone and dialed Sakura's home number "hi is Sakura there…..This is Inuyasha, Mikomi's father….Hi Sakura do you know where Mikomi is….What…What happened…..do you have any idea where she would go…ok thank you" Inuyasha hanged up the phone
"Where is Mikomi" asked Kagome. "Sakura doesn't know where she is but she did tell me that Mikomi saw Dominick with another girl" "what" "Mikomi saw him kiss this girl, she confronted him, apparently he brock up with her over the phone" "WHAT" "Mikomi ran out and Sakura hasn't seen Mikomi since then" "where could Mikomi had run off to, she's got to be hurting badly" "I don't know but I'm going to find her" Inuyasha and Kagome left to find their daughter.
9pm Shikon Park
It had started freezing raining 1hour ago and Mikomi is walking in the park crying, she couldn't believe that Dominick had done this to her, the least he could do is break up with her in person but no he had to do it over the phone. Mikomi was so upset that she did not care that it was freezing raining.
With Inuyasha and Kagome
Inuyasha had called Miroku, Sango and Koga 2 hours ago and asked if they could help find Mikomi and they agreed. "Where could she be" said Kagome "I don't know, maybe we should try the park" answered Inuyasha, so they headed to the park where they met Miroku, Sango and Koga. "Did you find Mikomi" asked both Inuyasha and Kagome at the same time. "no, we haven't had any luck" said Koga "we decided to check the park" said Sango "let's split up and check the park" said Inuyasha, so everyone went their separate ways and checked the park "MIKOMI" "MIKOMI" "MIKOMI" "MIKOMI" "MIKOMI WERE ARE YOU"
Back With Mikomi
Mikomi had ended up at the bridge, she had not stopped crying even thou you could not tell because of the rain, she is sitting on the rail of the bridge (she is not thinking of jumping, she just go's here to think sometimes) Mikomi started to sing
I'm standing on the bridge
I'm waiting in the dark
I thought that you'd be here by now
There's nothing but the rain, no footsteps on the ground
I'm listening but there's no sound
Isn't anyone trying to find me, wont somebody come take me home
It's that dame cold night, trying to figure out this life
Won't you take me by the hand, take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are but I
I'm with you, I'm with you
Mmmm
Off in the distant Inuyasha had spotted Mikomi but Mikomi did not see Inuyasha, he ran towards his daughter with a relived face.
I'm looking for a place; I'm searching for a face
Is anybody here, I know
Cause nothing's going right
And everything's a mess
And nobody likes to be alone
Isn't anyone trying to find me, wont somebody come take me home
Inuyasha had stopped about 10 feet from the bridge and listened to Mikomi sing.
It's that dame cold night, trying to figure out this life
Won't you take me by the hand, take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are but I
I'm with you, I'm with you
Yea, yea, oh
Why is everything so confusing?
Maybe I'm just out of my mind
Yea, yea, Yea, yea, yea, Yea, yea, yea, yea, Yea, yea, yea, yeaaaaaaaaaaa
It's that dame cold night, trying to figure out this life
Won't you take me by the hand, take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are but I
I'm with yoooouuuu, I'm with yoooouuuu
Take me by the hand, take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are but I
I'm with yoooouuuu, I'm with yoooouuuu
Take me by the hand, take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are but I
I'm with you, I'm with you, I'm with you
When Mikomi finished singing Inuyasha walked up to her and stopped about 5 feet away when Mikomi's ears perked up hearing him walk towards her, Mikomi turned her head and looked at her father. Even thou it was raining Inuyasha could tell that Mikomi was crying, Mikomi turned around and got off of the rail and stared at her father "if you had not come into my life Dom would still be with me" Inuyasha just stood there, he knew that she was just upset and did not mean what she said. "I hate you I HATE YOU" Mikomi ran to Inuyasha and ponded on his chest and all he did is hold her close to his heart.
"I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU" Mikomi kept on ponding on her father's chest and saying 'I hate you' over and over until she could not say it anymore, Mikomi then hugged her father while crying. Inuyasha tightened his hold on Mikomi and put his chin on her neck "Shhhhhhh it will be ok" he whispered, after about 5min Kagome, Sango, Miroku and Koga showed up and signed in relief. Inuyasha picked Mikomi up bridle style and carried her to his car.
Home
Inuyasha walked inside and carried Mikomi to her room sat her on the bed, Mikomi had not stopped crying "can you get yourself dressed" he asks. Mikomi hugs her father and continues to cry "he-he-he-he sa-sa-sa-said tha-tha-that h-h-h-h-he lo-lo-lo-loves m-m-m-m-me why wo-wo-wo-would he d-d-d-d-d-d-do th-th-th-this t-t-t-t-to m-m-m-m-m-me" Inuyasha did not know what to say, he just hold his daughter and said "there will be other boys" "but I love him" Mikomi cries even harder, her ears are flattened against her head.
Kagome walked in "I called Sakura, she is coming over and staying the night" Inuyasha looks at Kagome and said "it's a school night" "Sakura's parents said that it was ok, beside this situation calls for her best friend, believe me when I tell you that you won't want to sit there and hear her talk about Dominick" 20min later Sakura arrived at Mikomi's bedroom door with her backpack, a plastic bag with comfort food in it and a baseball bat.
Mikomi was still hugging her father crying and talking about Dominick, Sakura said "do you got a shovel" Mikomi looks at Sakura "what" "a shovel, because I couldn't find one at my house, I only could find this baseball bat" Sakura held up the bat "so do you want to whack Dom ore will you give me the pleaser of doing it" she said with a wicked smile, Mikomi just stairs at Sakura. Sakura walked over "I can handle this Mr. Takahashi" Inuyasha let go of his daughter and left.
Sakura helped Mikomi in to her snowflake PJ's and she got in to Mikomi's red PJ's with black dog prints, they were know sitting on the bed, Sakura grabbed a big tub of chocolate ice-cream from the plastic bag and two plastic spoons, she handed Mikomi a spoon "I'm not hungry" "MK you just suffered a serious breakup, you need comfort food" Mikomi took the spoon and they started eating.
5min later they were still eating the ice cream and hadn't said a word, Mikomi looked at her BFF and said "I can't believe this happened to me, I thought that he loved me" "it's Dominick's loss MK, he's a jerk" "ya a big jerk, I never want to talk to him again" Mikomi took another soon full of ice cream "did he have to break up with me over the phone, like who breaks up with their girlfriend over the phone" "A jerk" "your right a big egotistical JERK" "you don't need him" "but I love him" Mikomi started to cry all over again.
For the next few hours Mikomi and Sakura talked about Dominick and how he is a big jerk and all, Mikomi would cry get mad and then cry again, finally Mikomi had fallen asleep; Sakura took the big tub that use to have chocolate ice cream in it and took it to the kitchen where Inuyasha and Kagome were sitting at the kitchen table "mission accomplished" they looked up "how is she" asked Inuyasha "she will be ok, she's going to feeling down for a while but she will get over him"
