Hi there, I have a feeling this will be a nice read :) Anyway, here is snippet 35: Seven hundred and Thirty-two dollars


Sesshomaru didn't know what had compelled him to stand in front of the Jared jewelry store. He was supposed to be out buying Rin her Christmas gifts and instead he found his eyes glued to the poster of the advertisement for an engagement ring. Deciding to take a look he walked inside. Yes, looking wouldn't hurt after all he wasn't sure of what he wanted to do yet.

He walked inside and grimaced at the smile that the lady behind the counter was giving him. She was obviously thinking she had a potential customer and though he was hesitant to be her cusotmer, he wasn't going to deny her that pleasure. For all he knew, he might be walking out of here with a lighter wallet.

"How can I help you today?" The lady began. She was still eager and Sesshomaru decided that the sooner he left her presence the better. He immediately stated the reason he had decided to venture into the store.

"I'd like to see the ring that's on the poster outside." She nodded leading him to a display and pulled out the specific ring that he wanted. It was simple, a gold band with three square cut diamonds set neatly in a row. It wasn't too grand but would add a touch of elegance on anyone who wore it. He immediately knew that it would fit Kagome and that she would love it for its simplicity.

"Would you like to buy it sir?" Sesshomaru examined the ring as he thought. It was the perfect fit for Kagome but he wasn't sure. However, if he bought it now, it would probably be cheaper with all the Christmas discounts going on and he could store it for a later time if he needed. It didn't hurt to buy the ring right? His decision made he decided to note how much of a dent his wallet was going to have.

"Yes. How much is it?" The saleslady read the tag attached to the bottom of the ring box. It was one-and a half carats with a twenty-two carat gold band. After doing some quick calculations, she managed to come to a final price.

"It'll be seven hundred and thirty two dollars sir." He balked at the price before doing some quick calculations of his own inside his head. It wasn't going to be hard to pay it back if he used his one of his credit cards. So with a sigh, he decided to do just that.

The saleslady practically jumped for joy when she saw him pull out his card. She took it quickly and had the ring bagged up in record time telling Sesshomaru that the lucky woman who was receiving it was going to love it. Satisfied with his decision he left to finish his shopping. Now he only had to worry about how to give it to Kagome. What had he gotten himself into?
