Chapter 5: An Unexpected Meeting
"Okay class. Let's do scene 4 act 3, and this time, no more interruptions or accidents." Mr. Akimoto said while sighing.
Just before when they were doing this scene, Miroku groped Sango when they were hugging. He ended up getting smacked by her. When they were doing this scene, Kouga was declaring his love for Kagome, but got interrupted by Inuyasha who punched him hard. That blow sent Kouga flying towards Miroku, who bumped into another student. That student accidentally let go of the rope, which caused the curtains to fall. The curtains made the students on the stage to lose balance, which caused them to knock down some of the objects on the stage.
After setting the stage back up, Sango and Miroku had to redo the scene over. "Better not touch me, pervert." Sango muttered while glaring at him. Miroku gulped from those eyes that's going to kill him if he touches her. Miroku nodded nervously meaning he understands.
As they were doing the scene again, Ms. Hanaki suddenly yelled, "Cut!" Everyone froze and looked towards to Ms. Hanaki. "Sango, you need more emotions, like this." Ms. Hanaki went to the stage and towards the spot where Sango was. Then, Ms. Hanaki started to act the scene with Miroku.
Mr. Akimoto then stopped the scene and went to act as Miroku's character. Both teachers were in their own world as they acted the scene.
Everyone stared at the teachers in awe, at how they acted. "Now I know why she's a teacher." Kagome said, as they still stared at the scene in front of them.
Both teachers then stopped and saw the audience that they have. "We must've been carried away." Ms. Hanaki said shyly. Mr. Akimoto nodded while blushing a bit.
After a while, they finally finished their rehearsals for today. Tomorrow, they wouldn't have to rehearse, since it's going to be Sunday.
~*~*~*~
"Awww . . . Sango, are you sure you can't come?" Kagome pleadingly asked. Sango sighed. "Sorry Kagome. I have to baby-sit Kohaku and then go over to my aunt's house. Maybe next time." Kagome groaned and told her 'ok', then hanged up saying bye to her.
"Guess I'll just go shopping alone." Kagome muttered under her breathe. She picked up her things and left the house. "Bye mom! I'll be home before dinner!" "Ok sweetie, have fun!" Kagome's mom yelled back, just as Kagome was about to close the door.
~*~*~*~
Kagome went inside the mall and went to some cloth stores. She browsed through some clothes; tried some; bought some; you get the idea.
As she walked around the mall, her eyes caught on something that attracted her attention. She went towards it and stared at it from outside the window. It was a music box with blue color on it. It had all these nice decorations on it, such as ballet shoes, ribbons, etc. There are tiny figures that are on the pink lines or the side of the box. Inside, there is a boy bear and a girl bear dancing together.
Kagome eyed at it as if it was a magnificent thing to see. After seeing it for a while, she turned around. As she turned, she bumped into someone. "Sorry." Kagome apologized.
The girl whom she bumped into looked at her. After looking at her for sometime, an evil smirk appeared on her face. "My, my, my. Why it isn't Kagome Higurashi." The girl said in a sarcastic surprised tone. Her two friends with her giggled after what she said.
Hearing that voice, Kagome lifted up her head, just to see the face, which she thought she'd never see again. Upon seeing her, Kagome became shocked. 'This can't be. It has to be a nightmare.' Kagome's heartbeat increased and she just wanted to run away. But if she did, it'll show them that she's a coward and they look down at her more.
Taking a deep breathe, Kagome replied "Why hello there, Yura. Never thought I'll see you again. You look much better than before. The last time I saw you, you had a hideous mask of make-up on you, that someone could mistaken you for a clown."
Kagome smirked at her. Yura was so mad that she was insulted, that it seems as if steam was coming out of her ears. One of her best friend's whispered in her ear. "Don't worry Yura, we'll get back at her." Upon hearing that, Yura smiled evilly. Kagome didn't like that smile one bit.
"It's good to know you still remember me, Kagome." Yura replied keeping her cool. "Of course, you still have that hideous face on you." Kagome smiled not so nicely. Yura frowned, but then put it back to a smile. "It's amazing how time flies by, nee Kagome? The last time I saw you was when you got dumped."
Kagome winced at the memory of her past. "Oh, I'm sorry. It kinda . . . slipped." Yura smiled and shrugged as if she meant to say it purposely. Kagome just stood there. She didn't know how to get back at her. She just stood while listening to Yura talk about her painful past.
"Oh, what's his name? Oh right. It was Hiten that dumped you. Well, just to let you know, him and me are doing just perfectly fine together. We even have a better relationship that you and him had." Yura was enjoying this. She loved to make Kagome suffer. She was the one who everyone picked on.
Finally Yura stopped babbling to stop and look at how Kagome's expression is. Kagome looked pale from Yura's talking. "Oh I'm sorry Kagome." Yura said again as if she's mocking her. "Are you gonna cry? Oooops. My bad. I forgot that you can't cry, cause you're the girl who doesn't cry." Yura said with a laugh.
Kagome looked down. She didn't want to see their faces. She hated them. Hated them all. She wanted to run away, but she can't. Her legs wouldn't move. She wished this would end soon. She couldn't stand it anymore. She wanted to scream, to scream out loud. Release her pain and suffering. But all she could now is just listen to Yura's babbling about her painful past.
~*~*~*~
Inuyasha came out of the game store. He had come here to buy games and had finally bought the game he always wanted. He couldn't wait to go home and play with it. He went through all the trouble just to get money to buy this game that he wanted, and now he got it. (A/N: Sorry to all of you who wanted to know, but I don't know what kind a game a boy would REALLY want. ^-^'')
He can't wait to get home and start playing. He was walking towards the mall's exit, when he spotted Kagome and three other girls he didn't recognize. He know that a fact that those three girls couldn't possibly be Kagome's friends, cause they seem to be ganging up on her.
Curiously as to know what they were talking about, he started to walk towards them.
~*~*~*~
As Inuyasha neared, he shouted "Hey! What are you guys doing?" Hearing a boy's voice shouting, all girls turn their heads to face Inuyasha.
"Inuyasha." Kagome said in a whisper that nobody could hear.
Seeing how good-looking and handsome he is, Yura put on a seducive smile on, as she walked towards him. "Why hello there, handsome. What brings you here?" Yura flirtatiously said while putting her arm around Inuyasha's arm.
Inuyasha gave her a disgusting look and tore his arm away from her. Then he walked towards Kagome.
"Hey! You don't go on and ignore me like that!" Yura angrily shouted. "What does she have that I don't!?"
"Well, for one thing, she's ten times more that you'll ever be! Besides, she's prettier than an ugly face girl like you." Inuyasha insulted at her.
Yura gasped. No one had ever insulted her. She stomped away angrily with her two friends following after her.
~*~*~*~
"Are you ok?" Inuyasha asked with concern. Kagome nodded her head and then turned to him, giving him a death glare. Inuyasha blinked at Kagome's sudden change of behavior. First she seems down, then she nods at him with a pale face, now she looks at him with her death glares. 'What's wrong with her?' Inuyasha thought.
"I don't need your help! I could've handled them myself!" Kagome spat at him. Inuyasha snorted and then replied disbelievingly, "Surrrre you can." "I don't need your help! I don't need anyone's help! I could've done it myself!" "Right." Inuyasha waved her off.
"So, you know those girls or something?" Inuyasha asked wondering why a bunch of girls would gang up on her. "No." Kagome simply said while avoiding his eyes. "You're lying. I could tell." Inuyasha said, noticing her avoiding his gaze.
"So, what's the story behind you and her?" Inuyasha questioned her. "I don't want to talk about it! You're asking too many questions! Besides, why do you care!?" Kagome shouted angrily.
She didn't want anyone to know about her past. She wanted to start afresh without anyone knowing her past. She just wanted to leave it alone and in the back of her head. She didn't want memories to come back. She wanted to forget them all. All of it and start a new one.
"Ok, calm down. You're attracting attention." Inuyasha tried to calm Kagome down, noticing people's stares at them. "If you don't want to say it, then fine by me. See ya." Inuyasha said as he walked away.
"Inuyasha!" Inuyasha stopped and turned around to face Kagome. "Thank you." Kagome said sincerely and from the bottom of her heart. Then she smiled at him. Not a fake smile, but a real smile from her heart. "Oh yea, don't tell anyone about this." Kagome said warning him. Inuyasha nodded.
After thanking him, Kagome turned around and walked into the crowd.
Inuyasha stood there still staring after Kagome to where she left. His hair was sticking up everywhere and a blush was forming on his cheeks. His heartbeat was increasing fast. He didn't really know what this strange feeling is. Returning back to normal, Inuyasha walked off, not caring about what the strange feeling was. At least now, he could go home and enjoy his game.
~*~*~*~
After shopping in the mall, Kagome decided to walk around the park. She didn't want to go home yet. Not after what happened today at the mall. Never thought she'd meet them again. Not after what had happened.
She needed time to clear her head from all this problems. She didn't want to face her fears. Not yet.
For now, she just wants them to go away and never come back. She didn't have the courage to face them yet. Maybe someday, she'll tell her present friends about her past. Even Inuyasha.
'Why did Inuyasha just popped into my mind?' Kagome was freaked out. 'Come to think of it, there seems to be a special kind of feeling when I'm around him. Maybe . . . Nah. Can't be. I could never trust any boy I date after what he has done. Not even love them.' Kagome pondered as she started to head back home, after having a walk in the park.
