Chapter 2
Is that right?

Kagome went to the clinic once again the next day to get the test results. She didn't know what would they be, so, she was not exactly very sure about it. And Inuyasha's concern, while comforting in the way concern from someone we love always is, didn't quite help a lot. Yesterday he had even been bitter.

"Are you sure you have not eaten anything bad? If those wenches over there at your college have served anything spoiled, I swear, they are in trouble!"

'I am sure they would be!' Kagome thought. "Calm down, dear... I am sure it's nothing serious. Now, how was your day?"

From that point on the day was rather fine, except for her nausea!

"God, I sure am curious what is going on, but I can't let him get any more worried about me..." she thought aloud.

A few minutes later she got to her physician's office. "Good day, Mrs. Shirosenshi. How are you feeling?" "Good day to you too, Dr. Hiroshi. I am fine, just a bit anxious about the results. Are they ready yet?" was her reply, a shoft expectant smile crossing her face.

"Well, sure they are ready. Just a moment, please."

After a quarter or so, and a very worried Kagome...

"I am sure they were here somewhere" Kagome let out a breath she hadn't notied she was holding. "I am so sorry, nurses make such a mess out of things sometimes..."

"That's alright, can you just tell me what the results were? Don't worry, I'll take them later, but please, tell me the results!" Kagome said, involuntarily raising her voice at the end, startling the poor doctor somewhat.

"OK, if that's so... Well, to make it short, you have nothing WRONG..." was the doctor's reply, the last word clearly emphasised. "But there is one thing left..." he added, his tone gravely serious...

Kagome was trembling considerably; she was actually shivering. "What is it, doctor, that you have not told me?"

Good old Dr. Hiroshi could only smile broadly at her nervousness. "But, 'Congratulations', offcourse!"

Kagome could do nothing but blink uncontrollably. "W...WHAT?!" she shouted, her face contorted because of the utter confusion that had overwhelmed her with these simple four words in general, and that one in particular...

"Congratulations, Mrs. Shirosenshi. You are almost four weeks pregnant!"

Kagome would do nothing but nod her head as Dr. Hiroshi told her about the numerous centers she should visit to keep fit and to exercise the techniques that would help her during and after her pregnancy, matternity programs, gave her various pamphlets and finally the check-up results. She was just stuck thinking the implications of her current state. At her nausea would subside now that she had an appropriate prescription.

'Could it be that Inuyasha will sniff out any difference? I hope not, I do not want him to find out just yet!' was Kagome's thought, if a little wicked, that was right, he deserved it for all the trouble she would go through. 'Wonderful trouble, though.'

"Well, thank you doctor. I will go now."

"Alright, Mrs. Shirosenshi. Give my Congratulations to your spouse!"

Waving her hand she got out of the office, then left for the bus stop where she could catch the bus to her mother's house. Was she in for a surprise...

"Oh, honey, that's wonderful news!"

"I know, mom. Man, I have to take a picture of his reaction when I tell him..." she could not help but add, sending both her and her mother in another fit of giggles. Souta entered the kitchen at the exact moment when the laughter started to fade out. The whole house seemed to resonate with their amused sounds.

"Oi, onee-chan, what's so funny?" Souta said, his eyes the same kawai expression from the first episode of the series when he held the dish of fish out to Buyo.

Kagome could only bluss at her brother's sudden appearance, her mother almost doubling with laughter at her look. She hadn't thought of her little brother and his reasonable curiosity!

"Well, Souta..."

Her mother interrupted at that moment, still sniffling because of her previous fit. "It's alright, Souta, Kagome was just telling me you are going to be an uncle soon." was all that Mrs. Higurashi could manage to say before she rolled over, laughing her head off, totally un-lady-like, due to the amazed look that had crept to Souta's face and the scarlet colour on Kagome's.

"Onee-chan!" was Souta's reply as he lounged at Kagome. She could do little but hug him back as he crushed her in his a lot stronger now than some time ago arms, when she met Inuyasha for the very first time...

They were all recovering from their fits, sprawled on the kitchen floor. Until Jii-chan came inside holding another "ancient relic", a confused look on his face, as all three of them going into another fit of giggles and loud laughter... Only to die down in a moment as he frantically started covering them with wards and chanting, this time horrified as he proclaimed they were possessed! 'Ooh, is he going to pay...' Kagome thought...

"JII-CHAN!!! Stop right now!" was her reply to his antics, standing threateningly above his head...

Everybody could do nothing but look at Kagome, then Mrs. Higurashi and Souta at each other knowingly, and jii-chan at everyone else questioningly...

'This is goingto be a long eight months...'

OK, this is it... What will Kagome do from now on? If I am wrong with the weeks/nausea point, please tell me: I hate making mistakes and not correct them if it is possible... ^_^
