Disclaimer: I don't own Inu-Yasha.

A/N: At last I have an idea what to write. It has been a long while since I last time wrote this story. I'm not yet sure does there even happen anything big in this chap, but you will see as you read. In the first chapters I made a big mistake with the car. Kagome owns that car. Not Sango. It was my own big mistake. I self forgot that it is Kagome's, not Sango's. I'm going to change my writing style a little. Hope it doesn't make it harder to read.

The Bet And Faith

Chapter five:

Bump in the mall

Kagome and Sango made their way to Kagome's car. They threw their back bags on the backseats. It was after all an open car. Kagome took the driver's seat and Sango sat beside her.

"You did well today at school. To think that it was your first day in high school. You're better than anyone."

Kagome sighed to Sango's comment. "I know." Right now, Kagome didn't really want to think of school. "Do you have plans today? We could go to the mall."

"I'd love to! I can show you this popular shopping mall that we have here nearby!"

"What time would be good to you?"

"Now if you like!"

"Okay, We could just visit our homes and then go..."

"That sounds good. Let's do it!"

Kagome drove her car out of the parking lot and parked it on the street in front of her shrine's stairs.

"I'll meet you after a while!" Sango said as she jumped out of the car, took her bag and ran to her home.

Kagome waved to her and came out of the car too. She took her back and climbed up the stairs. 'Why do we have to have these stairs.' She cursed in her mind. She opened her home's door and took her shoes off. "I'm home!"

"Hi honey! Did you have a nice day?" Mrs. Higurashi shouted from the kitchen. She seemed to be always there.

"Yeah, sure. I'm going to the mall with Sango."

"Okay, take the money from the living room's drawer."

"Okay." Kagome went upstairs to her room. She changed her school uniform to normal clothes and took her handbag. She made sure that she had her purse in there. Yes it was. And car keys she had with her too. She went back downstairs and went to the living room's drawer. She took the money from there and put them in her purse. "Bye!"

"Bye honey!"

Kagome put her sandals on and ran to her car. Sango hadn't returned yet. She put her handbag in the car already.

After few seconds a black car parked after Kagome's. Kagome looked inside to the car through the windscreen. She saw Sesshomaru and Kikyo.

Kikyo stepped out of the car and waved to Sesshomaru "Bye then and thanks of the lift."

Sesshomaru nodded and took of.

Kikyo noticed her sister. "Hi Kagome. Are you going somewhere?"

Kagome nodded. "I'm going to the mall with Sango."

"Was Sango that girl from neighbour?"

Kagome nodded again.

Kikyo nodded too. "Okay, I go home now. Have fun at the mall."

Sango came then. She huffed as she stopped beside Kagome. "Sorry I'm late. Hi Kikyo."

"Hello Sango. You have fun too."

"Of course!"

Kikyo left the two girls.

"Are you now ready to go?" Kagome asked from Sango. Sango nodded and jumped in the car.

Kagome went in the car too. "Remember to tell the road to me. I don't know where the mall is."

"You can be sure of that."

Kagome started the car and drove to the mall with Sango's instructions. She parked the car once again at the mall's parking lot.

Sango jumped out of the car with her handbag and started to run to the mall.

"Hey Sango! Wait up!" Kagome shouted after her friend and hopped out of the car too. Kagome caught up her friend and together they entered the mall. "Wow! This sure is bigger from inside then outside."

Sango nodded. "Don't worry. You'll get used to it."

Kagome looked beside her at Sango. "I'm sure of that." She said when she saw how Sango's eyes sparkled. "You really do like shopping, don't you?"

Sango didn't even mind to answer. She took a grip of Kagome's hand and led her upstairs to one shop. "This is the best cloth shop." She told as they entered a small shop, which was full of clothes (of course).

Kagome looked around at the clothes. They were all so good ones and so her style. "You're so right Sango. Look at all these clothes. They are so fabulous! And prizes! Wow! They sure are low."

"I said that this is the best cloth shop."

"And you sure were right." Kagome took her purse and looked how much money she had. She didn't know how much money her mother had given her. After counting the money she started to try some clothes with Sango.

After an hour

Sango and Kagome had bought few bags of clothes. Sango had all the bags and went outside of the store.

Kagome put the change in her purse. She was putting the bill in her purse when she left the shop and bump on something or rather someone. She fell on her butt and lost the grip of the bill. She looked up and saw Inu-Yasha. Quickly she stood up. "Sorry."

Inu-Yasha just snorted back.

Miroku on the other hand had lifted Kagome's bill and now gave it to her. "Here you have."

"Thanks Miroku." Kagome took the bill and passed Inu-Yasha. She put her bill in her purse and looked around. She saw how Sango disappeared behind a corner with laughter. "Hey Sango. Wait up!" Kagome ran after her friend.

Inu-Yasha snorted again and rubbed his chest. "She sure bumped on me."

"You can't blame her." Miroku said as they started to walk again. He was pleased to notice that Kagome had remembered his name after first day. Now that he thought, usually girls did remember his name after the first meeting. He could only wonder why. Maybe he's just so handsome.

"She was the one who wasn't watching!"

"Hey, how can you blame someone so pretty?"

Inu-Yasha gave a glare to Miroku.

Miroku quickly added. "She did apologize. And you came behind the 'corner'."

"Yeah, yeah." Inu-Yasha whisked his hand to it. Like he would care.

"Why do you hate her that much? You don't even know her."

Inu-Yasha snorted. "She's annoying." He said it like it would be obvious.

Miroku could see from that it wasn't the real reason, but he let it be.

A/N: I know that I'm so late with this and I apologize. I have been so busy lately. But now I finally wrote a new chap. There doesn't happen much. I know that few next chaps won't be really exciting. I have this little problem you see. I want you readers to say your opinion in one thing. Please say it in review.

So, Now it takes one month until the bet. Do you want me to time jump straight to it or is it better to make up here few chaps and make only week or two weeks time jump?? Please tell me your opinion. Otherwise I will be really in trouble with writing this! Thanks again of reading my new chap!
