After Kristy's funeral I felt so bad. Like I had been shot... I lost my best friend, my sister. I stayed some distance from Miroku. I don't know what to do. It's been 6days after her passing and it feels like I'm going into a depressed state yet again but something is keeping me up...A knock on the door pops me out of my state of spacing out.

"Sango?" a familiar voice calls out to me. I turn around, surprised to see Dr. Foster standing in the doorway.

"Dr. Foster, what are you doing here?"

"Well my vacation was cut short after hearing about all that has happened to you and Kristy. I'm sorry for your lost by the way." he says making his way over to me. I just nod in response, not knowing what else to say. I wheel myself around to face him.

"Where's Dr. Houshi?" I asked.

"Dr. Houshi has gone back home. Since I am here he has really no reason to stay behind anymore. So I sent him back home." he says sitting on my bed.

"And where might that be? When did he leave?"

"Hiroshima, Japan. He left about 2days ago I believe." My heart stops. I can't believe he would just go...Leave like that without saying good bye to me! I felt like crying. I excused myself and wheeled out of my room. The tears started falling at a rapid rate. Hot, warm. I couldn't stop them...I wheeled myself outside. After a while I ditched my chair and started to walk. I hate my life at the point. Lucky no one was around. Little too cold outside for them possibly. I tried to stop crying but the tears kept coming none stop! Until the point where I tripped and fell. I didn't bother to move. Just laid there on the cold grass and cried.

"Why is thou dearest crying?" I heard someone say. I managed to stop crying a little to make it look like I had hurt myself falling. But as I pushed myself up that was when it hit me. That scent, that voice... Those hands!

"Miroku..."

"Are you okay?" he asks helping me up.

"I thought you had left." I said pulling back.

"I did. But not to go back home if that's what you think. Sango, when I said I loved you I meant it. And I'm not leaving you." He said looking into my eyes. Miroku then began to explain how from all the proof that my records showed that I was perfectly normal and therefore not insane. And said that I was being released...To go home...Go home...With him.

I couldn't help but cry...I cried because I was happy, shocked, and...Loved...I was leaving this place...Then I started crying because I missed Kristy...Way too many emotions all at once. But before I could get myself together, Miroku wrapped me tightly in his arms holding me. My heart feels like it's hurting. But not painfully hurting. I don't know.

"Why? Why are you doing all of this for me?" I ask looking into his eyes. His beautiful eyes that I could swim in. He looks back into mine and answers my aching words.

"Because I love you...And I want you. I want all of you and forever. I need you Sango." he said.

I was absolutely out of it because I couldn't find words to reply back with. Truth be told, my thoughts weren't even making much sense right now. So instead of scanning my brain for something to say back to that, I just let him hold me in his arms and let every bad thing go. There's still that pulling in the back of my mind that screams DON'T DO IT! HE'S LYING! HE'LL HURT YOU! YOUR BETTER OFF STAYING HERE! But for this one time, I'm going to ignore it and fallow my own voice now.
