Thursday.
It's just like any other day, but not this particular one.
Yesterday was this one, and the get-together itself wasn't too bad.
Sesshomaru was there, and some old friends of the old man that I didn't know, but all in all, it was actually pretty calm.
Our family isn't exactly close-knit, but we do have the decency not to argue at an anniversary of a death.
Mom got all sad again, she'd just gotten over last years sadness, for pete's sake.
But, it was actually all very depressing.
I'd never actually met father, but I hear he was great.
It kind of gets me that there's all this sadness, and all this crap in the world, and we have to get together to clog this big old room with all that grief.
When we got home, mom was all crying and stuff, I just let her curl up in a ball on the couch and finished unloading the car.
I pulled off my black jumper, and the phone rang.
Dumping the jumper, I picked it up.
'Hi, this is-'
'InuYasha?' A familiar voice asked down the line, they sounded teary.
'Kikyou? What's wrong?'
I took the cordless phone with me as I left the room, I was quietly hoping that it was an easily solved matter, I needed to be with my mother.
But, don't you just hate it when you're proved wrong like that?
Nine hours later, at ten to seven the following morning, this morning, she hung up.
Not that it wasn't serious, because it was.
Her new guy had dumped her, left her at the movies and left with another girl.
Now she was all crying and stuff, down the phone and everything, and I listened.
I comforted her, and was there for her, even though I had to be there for my mother.
And now that I've thought about it, and heard all of that, I've realised something, as I sit there, staring at the phone.
I don't love her anymore.
I wish I could, I wish I did, but I just, don't.
Seeing her, for what she is, is very different, but it also makes me realise just who she is.
She's unfaithful, she's manipulative, and she had me wrapped around her finger for so long it's scary.
Alright, so I'm upset, I'm pretty sure I'm allowed to be.
But I'm also extraordinarily tired, so I might just go back to sleep for a while, before I actually have to get up for school, which is in about ten minutes.
InuYasha.
! YOU GREAT BLOCKHEAD! *does happy dance madly around computer!*
*about 20min later*
Anywho, ISN'T AMAZING! *coughs* sorry, but it's a pretty good turnaround on InuYasha's part.
Reviews from last week;
DancingNinja21, it's fast enough for me :P so you can just dance while you wait. Kagurakyoto, you got it. Kirt, you have no idea what I had to go through to get InuYasha's diary. *promptly gets whacked by InuYasha* sorry, sorry, "A Random Notation of InuYasha's Thoughts That He Keeps In A Box." Yuseirulez, I loled at your comment. Since I am the author here, I say you can have superstrength to throw a car at InuYasha. At least he figured it out. Nekome, please see above for my happy dance. Kagurakyoto, NaLu SeiRei is selling Kikyou dolls that you are free to treat as you like. So you can stomp her all you like. AND NaLu SeiRei theirself, you BET he's an idiot! And I sure hope that wasn't nomralness. That stuff's deadly.
aaaaaaaand this week.
Yuseirulez, I agree. You kind of feel sorry for her a lot in this story. like. Kirt (again, lets see if you bothered to read this :P) that's okay, and I'm updating again with GOOD NEWS **HAPPY DANCE HAPPY DANCE* *cough cough* sorry, I couldn't control it for a second. Bastet godess, I completely agree. And that's the kind of reaction I was going for, so thanks. NaLu SeiRei, my mad reviewer who makes your average mad hatter seem sane, I'm very sorry you were forgotten. In apology, go to google . com / virgle / plan_1' I have found a possible job for you. So your spaceship has landed. Please get in.
