Welcome "Home"
A/n: okays… here you go people… all of you who read my story 'Hex' I don't know why I did what I did… but I just did it… it made the story interesting.. now to THIS story….
I walked in the door of my house. Screams were heard from the kitchen.
"I DON WANNA!" I heard Shippo yell.
"Come on Shippo, don't you like Trixs?" I heard Sota yell back.
"I Hate warm milk," Shippo whined.
I ran to the kitchen and looked around. What I saw made me want to cream. But I was to exhausted, "What's going on?" I asked.
Sota looked up and said, "Mom left the milk out all day and all we have to eat is Trixs, but Shippo's being a brat and won't eat," Sota threatened him with a his spoon.
I ran over and grabbed the spoon from his hand, "Sota!" I almost screamed, I calmed when I saw his worried eyes, "Where's mom?" I asked. I let go of his hand and walked over to a cupboard, "She was supposed to go grocery shopping," I said and opened the cupboard as an old moldy sandwich rolled out, "Well?" I asked again.
"She's… sick," Sota said and looked down at his cereal.
"AGAIN," I yelled. I calmed when the two ran under the table, "Okay… I'll call Mrs. Chiku to watch while I go to the grocery store," I said and picked up the phone.
"Alright, but can we go over there.. it's… cleaner," he said. Tears welled in my eyes as I nodded and turned away. I picked up the phone and talked to Mrs. Chiku as she agreed to watch the boys.
I dug around in Mom's purse and pulled out her Visa and some bus change. I dropped Sota and Shippo off before running to the store on the bus.
If it wasn't for Sota and Shippo… I'd never come back.

Friday. Today was another day of hell. InuYasha and me. I walked in the room. He was playing his fake drums again but noticed when I came in this time.
I sat down and he grinned before dropping the walkman in his pock and sitting up straight, "My parole officer… sit down, now let's see here… I haven't set fire to small children, I don't think I camped out in front of anywhere," I snorted and he smiled. I slammed my folder down on the table.
"So, tell me about your home life, your family," I asked.
He snorted and turned away, "What family," he muttered.
I glared, "Just answer the question."
He rolled his eyes and fell forward on the table in a desk sleeping position, "Mother dearest wants me to spend time with her, father dearest wishes I would get no friends, and be more like my perfect bigger brother Sessomaru," he looked up to me, "Do you have those problems?" he asked.
"No," I said quickly. He looked at me closely.
"Then what is your problem?" he asked.
"Look, we're not here to talk about my problems we're here to talk about yours," I said.
"So you admit you DO have problems," he said.
I slamed my folder shut and stood up, "If your not gonna take this seriously then I'm going," she said.
InuYasha jumped up and glared toward me, "Go ahead," he said.
I snorted and walked out of the room.

Later that night at home, I made some spaghetti and heated up some chicken from last night. I walked up stairs and into mother's room.
"Mom," I asked as I opened the door slowly. I ball of blankets was on the bed.
"Huh," she whimpered.
I walked over and held out the plate, "You need to eat, I made you spaghetti and chicken, your favorite," I said.
She whined, "I'm not hungry," she said.
"Fine," I blurted out and slammed the plate on her nightstand. A piece of Italian bread feel of and skidded across some pictures laying on the floor. I picked the picture up and started to whip off the grease stain.
The picture had me sitting behind a table with a cake that said 'Happy 13' on it, Sota was sitting next to me and mom was behind me with a grin on her face and hands on my shoulders.
She was plump in the stomach. She must have been pregnant with Shippo. Yeah, that was the last birthday before…
Mom shifted around and turned to look at me, "Kagome, could you hand me a cigarette?" she asked.
I looked down to the nightstand where a ash tray over flowed with cigarettes buts, "There aren't any," I lied as I pushed the pack behind the night stand.
She whimpered, "Could you go down to common cents and get me a pack?" she asked sitting up a bit.
"Mom, you know they won't sell them to me," I said. She moaned and stood up. She brushed past me and to the bathroom door.
"Your gonna have to be a little more help around here Kagome, I can't do everything by myself," she said and slammed the door in my face.
