'Chapter 19/18
Back where I started. Goodbyes
Running from the Bronx to the subway station, getting off and ending up in Manhattan, Kagome found herself on the front porch of her old home. 'Never in a million years did I think I'd be here again.' Taking a deep breath, she rung the doorbell.
Her eyes began to water as a young man answered the door. He looked about 15, easy on the eyes, and you could tell if he smiled, girls would go crazy for him. 'Souta..' "Can I help you?" Kagome smiled at him, realizing how deep his voice had gotten.
"Yeah brat I used to live here." "You the hell are you?!" "WATCH YOUR DAMN MOUTH HALF PINT!!!" Souta's face lit up at the words 'half pint'. No one on earth called him that but his sister. "K-Kagome?!!" He didn't even see her nod, as he wrapped his arms around her waist. Kagome hugged him back, letting several tears drop from her face.
"God, I've missed you!! Where the hell have you been?!" Kagome smirked. "You haven't been watching the news?! I'm here for one final boost then I'm out Souta. I plan on going somewhere far away."
Souta frowned. "That's it?! After like four years, you're just gonna up and leave?! Disappear?!!"
Kagome sighed. "I'm sorry Souta but I just can't stay here." "Maybe if you get your act together you wouldn't have to keep running!!" "After this I WON'T BE!!"
Souta turned away from his sister, not wanting her to see his tears. 'Haven't seen her in four years, and when she finally does show her face, she tells me she's leaving. Some great sister.'
"So I guess you're here to say goodbye to mom and dad?"
Kagome nodded. "And here to see you. I promise when this is all over, you're gonna see so much of me you'll get nauseated when someone mentions my name." Souta shrugged. "Maybe, maybe not. I've had to go without seeing you for four years. One day doesn't make up for that."
"Stop being the mature sibling! That's my JOB!" Souta laughed at her whining, and lead the way to where their father was. In his den, he watched the T.V., not noticing when the door creaked. Souta left them alone, knowing they had some catching up to do.
Staring at her father, she couldn't put the words together for speaking. So she did what she had been doing for three minutes now-watch him watch the T.V. The news was reporting on the car thieves and showing the average of how many cars that had been stolen. Hearing the average, her father spoke to himself. "That's my girl."
Kagome smiled for a brief second and thought on how her father always supported her. 'Even now he still believes I can do no wrong.' She heard the T.V. go off and became alert. Her father almost jumped out of his seat when he saw his daughter in nothing but a bra and a pair of baggy jeans.
"Kagome..." "Hi daddy." He rushed over, the same way Souta did, not hesitating to have her in his arms. Unable to hold back her tears, Kagome cried into his shoulder, no words needed to be said.
Toro smiled at his daughter, seeing the woman she had grown up to be. Going over to a closet, he pulled out on of his T-shirts handing it to her. "You're famous now ya know." Kagome smirked. "Yeah well, I still got it. I can't stay long, I just came to say......" Toro smiled. "I know. You don't have to say it. I've missed my little angel."
Kagome saddened. "Oh daddy I'm no angel." "Kagome you could never disappointed me or your mother." She snorted. "Believe me I could. My life has been less than perfect, and I just....I'm tired of running daddy."
Toro nodded, understanding where his daughter was coming from. "Well take this." HE handed her his cell phone. "So there won't be any excuse for you not to call us. And if you don't want to deal with us then at least call for Souta. He'll never admit it, but I've saw him run to your room when he had something important to tell you."
Kagome looked back toward the front door, feeling extremely guilty for being a bad sister for four years. "I should go say goodbye to mommy." "She's in her place of piece." "The kitchen" they both said at the same time.
Walking through to the kitchen, Kagome smelled cherries and batter. Looking around she saw that the oven was on 350% and the stove slowly boiling a type of liquid. A door swung over and her mother came out from the pantry drying off her hands with her apron. Her beautiful humming ceased when she saw Kagome's face.
The two similar females continued to stare, neither moving or daring to speak. Kagome was on the verge of tears at her mother's cold eyes. They were gazing at her as if she were an unwelcome stranger.
Sonya walked past her daughter and to her dough, grabbing the rolling pan on the way. "What are you doing here?" "I...I-I came to see you." She refused to look at the woman that her child had turned out to be.
"Well now that you've saw me, shouldn't you be somewhere hot wiring a car?" Kagome sighed. This wasn't going to be the easiest conversation, but it needed to be had if she wanted to move on. "Look mommy. I know you think that I wasted my life, and hell you may be right. You can disown, shun, curse, or even hit me, but it doesn't change the fact that I'm still your daughter."
Sonya worked her way around the kitchen, trying not to listen to her child's forceful words. 'I've had enough grieving and worrying over her life. I don't need to shed any more tears for her.' "Are you still with that....that boy?" " Yes and I just came here to say goodbye to you and the rest of the family before I leave. After this last boost I'm out for a while."
Kagome watch her mother face her, with the tiniest hint of remorse. "Well then....make sure you watch out for the cars you haven't stolen." It was a joke with no humor behind it what so ever. Kagome smirked. "I don't know why I thought you'd give a shit. Is that all you have to say?!"
Sonya just made a motion for her to get out bye glancing her then the door. Kagome swallowed. "Fine then." Without another word, she walked out the kitchen door and out of her mother's life, most likely forever.
!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!
Nazuna and Sango ran through the city streets, not caring where they were. Catching cabs to every place was tiring and it was taking up all their money. Sango looked around. "Naz, where are we?"
Nazuna took the time to actually look around. A big smile formed on her lips. "SANGO!! WE'RE AT THE AIRPORT!!! COME ON!!" Sango smiled too, both of them just now seeing the sign that said terminal87.
Sango took out her cell phone, calling Kagome.
(Yeah)
"Meet us at the airport, by the gate 87."
(You make it sounds sooo damn easy.)
"Where are you anyways?"
(Just leaving my parents' house in Manhattan)
"Oh....I'm sorry Kay."
(No, it's fine. Look I gotta call Inuyasha, and tell him what's up. I'll meet you at the gate in an hour. If I'm not there by then, take off without me.)
"Will do. Lata."
(Yeah)
Nazuna looked back at Sango. "Well?' "She said that if she isn't here in an hour, to leave without her." Then it occurred to her. "What about your guy?" Sango paled. "Oh god, Miroku!" Calling the hospital, she got his room number and told him about her whereabouts.
"Listen Miroku, something's come up and I have to go."
( I bet you do. Will I see you again?)
Sango became teary eyed. "I doubt it."
(Oh.....well if you're ever back in Chicago.....)
"Yeah. I most defiantly will."
(Sango, if I wanted this to be a fling I wouldn't have fucked you.)
"Yeah well, we can't always have what we want now can we?"
(Do you want it to just a fling?)
"....No..."
(Then I'll see you in Chicago. Be there when I get back.)
Sango only nodded, even though he couldn't see it. "Alright."
She clicked off the phone, smiling at it. Nazuna observed that her friend had just lost her mind. "Sango? What's wrong?" "I'm going back home." "Excuse me?!" She didn't believe she was hearing her friend correctly.
"You heard me. I'm going back home. To Chicago." Sango stared at her. "But why?" Sango smiled at her friend's confusion. "Because I'm In love that's why. I'm going to buy my ticket. Tell Kagome I'm sorry. She'll understand."
Nazuna just stared at her as Sango rose. Her eyes followed the girl all the way to the ticket counter, where she saw Sango purchase a one way ticket to Chicago. "This is just great." But all the while, she was sorta happy for Sango. Pretty soon she'd be on a plane to, heading only god knows where.
!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@
"NO." Inuyasha shook her head at Kagome's crazy suggestion. "Inuyasha I'm sorry but I've got to." "This will be the second time that I'd let you escape." Kagome smiled sadly. "Then don't let me escape. Come with me."
"What?" "Come with me. What do you have here that you can't get anywhere else?" Inuyasha shrugged. "Be ready to go in ten minutes." Kagome's face lit up as she shrieked. Inuyasha sighed and went to pack for a very light trip.
@#@#@#@@#
Nazuna stood next to Sango, teary eyed. "I'm going to miss you sweety. It was fun." Sango laughed through her own tears as other people boarded the plane. The flight attended made the last announcement for the flight.
"Well this is it. Bye Nazuna." "Bye." she managed to whisper back. "Wait up!!" Both girls looked back to see Kagome running up toward them. Kagome didn't stop her pace as she ran into Sango giving her a hug.
"I knew you weren't coming with me, so I had to make it here in under an hour." Sango hugged her childhood friend back. "I'm going to miss you brat." Kagome smiled, half choking on her sobs.
"Same here. Take care of yourself. I love you." Sango nodded. "Same to you. And I love you too. All of you." She kissed her best friend's cheek, before giving Nazuna one more hug, hurrying to board the plane just as the attendant closed the door.
Nazuna turned to Kagome. "So where are you headed?" "To Australia. It's the only place I haven't seen yet. I here Sydney is beautiful." Inuyasha came up and pinched her ass. "Kagome, our flight leaves in ten minutes. Gate 53."
Kagome nodded as he let her go. Nazuna struck out there hand. "It was an honor Miss Kagome." Kagome shook her head and pulled Nazuna into a hug. "The pleasure was all mine. Don't be a stranger."
Nazuna cried. "I'll try not to. Well, you got seven minutes to make it to your terminal. So beat it." Kagome laughed kissing her new friend on the cheek which Nazuna returned at the same time. Inuyasha said his goodbyes and they left.
Nazuna watched them run down in the opposite direction she was headed in. "And then there was one." She wiped her tears and grabbed her bags, heading for terminal 7. Atlanta."
