Chapter 3
It was 5 o' clock and not even half of the things in the moving van were taken out. Kagome had rushed to the box that had the phone in it. When she finally got a hold of it, she ran into the house and
:: ring ring ::
"Hello?"
"Rin! It's me! Kagome! We just got here a few minutes ago!"
"Kagome! How is it? Terrible? Gorgeous?"
"It's okay... but I really miss it over there!"
"How can you miss this place already when you haven't been gone for even a day?" Rin laughed.
"Well, I don't know! Haha. Summer will totally be a bummer without you and Hojo!"
"Err, I doubt that! There's fun wherever you are, Kagome! Don't sweat it!"
"Ehh, I still wish you guys were here! At least I'll still be able to call you every day!"
"Oh..about that Kagome..." Rin's voice fell.
"What's wrong?"
"Well, this morning my Dad told me that we're going to be going to visit my mom for the summer. I'd bring my cell, but it got taken away ever since me and Hojo had that long talk on what to get you on the last day of school.."
"That's terrible! Well, I guess it's not so terrible..I mean, you'll finally be able to visit your mom! And I still have Hojo to talk to I guess.."
"Yeah...that's also a problem here...Hojo's going to be going to summer camp..his parents are sending him for God know's what. Heh."
"Wow..well, if you ever get a chance to talk to him.. Tell him that I hope he has fun. And I hope you have fun also!" Kagome said, trying not to let Rin hear that she was really sad.
"Okay, I'll be sure to. And I hope you have fun there too! Oh! My mom's calling me.. Sorry Kagome! I'll talk to you whenever! Miss you, lots! Bye!"
"Bye..."

Kagome banged her head on the carpet. 'Ergh, why? Why? Why? Summer is suppose to be fun! And exciting! This whole situation is anti-summer!'
Kagome went downstairs to help bring out more of their things from the moving truck. When she got outside, she saw a girl with dark brown hair talking to her mom. Kagome stared at the girl, and admired her beauty. She walked beside her mother.
"Hello, honey! This is Sango, she'll be our neighbor. Sango, this is my daughter Kagome. You two look about the same age, eh? Well, I should really be getting back to work. Kagome, if you want to you can go walk around with Sango. Miroku and I can take care of everything here." with a smile, her mother picked up a box and walked into the house.
"Hello Sango!" Kagome smiled and held out her hand. Sango shook Kagome's hand and spaced out for a moment while looking at her face.
Kagome had on a pair of white shorts and a black sweatshirt shirt on. Her hair was down and neat. Her face showed a happy yet sad expression. There was something about this girl that made Sango just feel all around comfortable..like she could just tell her anything.
'She looks just like —' Sango's thoughts were interrupted by a wandering hand.
"What? What the?!" Sango exclaimed as she grabbed the arm that was attached to the hand on her bottom and flung whoever was touching her onto the ground.
"Hi I'm Miroku, nice to meet ya!" A dizzy Miroku said while his back was on the ground.
"Miroku, you doofus! That's really low of you! You haven't even been here for at least 24 hours and you've already groped someone! Honestly, we should of just left you at the house."Kagome screamed while picking her dizzy cousin up.
"I'm so sorry, Sango. My cousin, you see.. He's kind of..."
"Wandering? Rude? Completely idiotic?" Sango fumed
"Well... yes, but the word I was looking for was lecherous, but those fit in fine too!" Kagome said.
Both of the girls laughed.
"So," Sango started "your mom said that you could come with me anywhere if you wanted to, eh? How bout it? Why don't I show you around? I mean, if you're up for it."
Kagome looked at Sango, surprised that this girl had just known her for 10 minutes and was already inviting her to walk around. She was also surprised at that move she had just done to Miroku for groping her. Yep. This girl definitely had some potential.
"Sure! I'd love to!" Kagome said happily
Standing next to Sango made Kagome feel like a total big ugly bug. Sango was wearing dark blue denim jeans and an orange halter top that had magenta trim. Her hair was tied up in a bun and she wore magenta eye shadow. And here Kagome was with some shorts and a sweater. To make matters worse, it was blazing hot!
'Argh, it's so hot. Very hot. I probably look like a gigantic sweating dog!' Kagome thought to herself.
"Well, since it's really hot, why don't we go get some ice cream, eh? Sound good right about now?" Sango winked. Kagome nodded.
"Don't worry, it's not too far away from here.. You'll make it." Sango said giggling.
"Let's just hope so." Kagome replied.
"So where'd you move in from?"
"Eh. Far far away!"
"Oh, really? Do you like it here so far?"
"Well, the neighborhood seems nice. Oh, and Sango..I appreciate you being so nice to me.."
"Oh! Don't worry about it, Kagome. I know what it's like to be new at any place. It's tough." Sango said with a light punch on Kagome's arm.
"Well, here we are!" Sango opened the door to the ice cream parlor.
"Mmm! It's cold in here! Whoohoo! Freedom from the heat!" Kagome praised.
Kagome looked at the different types of ice cream. 'Mmm..Peppermint! My favorite!'
"I'll have two scoops of Peppermint in a cone, please." Kagome said to the man.
"Sure, and what'll it be for you, Sango?" the man said.
"Mmm, I think I'll have two scoops of Raspberry Sorbet in a cup."
It wasn't until the man gave Kagome her ice cream when she realized that she forgot her wallet! 'Doh! How could I have been so stupid!' When she was about to tell Sango that she needed to get her wallet, she already saw that Sango was paying for both of them.
"Oh no! You really didn't have to do that, Sango." Kagome said uneasily.
"It's okay! My treat! You could treat me next time." she winked. Kagome nodded.
When the two girls sat down, Kagome saw that one of the workers were very attractive. He had long, long silver hair. She hadn't seen many people with silver hair before..actually, she hadn't seen anyone with silver hair at all! Sango's back was facing towards him in her seat. The boy's sleeves were folded up revealing really, really nice arms. Kagome dazed off for a second.
"Kagome...uhh... your ice cream is melting.." Sango's voice came.
"Wha? OH! Oh dear! Oh my!" Kagome rose up blushing. 'Good job, doofus Kagome'
Luckily, Sango had napkins and helped Kagome wipe the ice cream off the table.
"Wow! That's a really nice ring you have there." Kagome complimented.
Sango was wearing a beautiful what looked like white gold ring.. It had three charms on it. A bell, a heart and a key.
"Oh! Yeah. Thank you...My brother gave it to me."
"Aww, how thoughtful."
"Haha. Pssh! He only gave it to me because they accidentally sent the wrong one on eBAY. He also says that it's a benefit because the bell on it tells him whether I'm coming or not. That jerk." Sango laughed. "Would you like to try it on?"
Kagome was shocked..but before she could say yes or no, Sango had slipped the ring off of her finger and onto Kagome's.
"There! Wow! It fits, Kagome!" Sango said in amazement.
"I think I should really give it back to you..." Kagome said unsure.
"No no, that's okay! Just wear it for a while..I was close on getting a yucky ring tan anyhow!" Sango winked.
An hour passed and the girls talked and talked. They laughed, and they hadn't realized what time it was. Sango brought Kagome home and waved good-bye. Kagome watched Sango until she went into her house. 'Wow! She lives so close. Only a couple blocks away."
Kagome opened the door and closed it.
"Kagome, honey! You home?" her mother called.
The house was filled with boxes and boxes.
"Yes, mom." Kagome called back.
"Great! How was your day with Sango? She seems nice, hm?"
"Yeah! She's great! She was really nice to me.. We went out for some ice cream."
"That's wonderful! Oh! Miroku and I fixed the beds inside the house..He should be upstairs if you need him."
"Oh alright, thanks mom!" Kagome said. She had just remembered what Miroku had done to Sango.
Kagome ran upstairs and to Miroku's room. He was placing some clothes into drawers.
"Hey Perve!" Kagome greeted.
"I'm not going to be immature and reply to that gruesome greeting, Kagome." Miroku said sternly. Kagome paused, and she put her arm over her cousin's shoulders.
"I'm sorry, Miroku..I didn't mean to.." she said solemnly.
Suddenly, Miroku's facial expression changed from serious to foolish.
"Ahaha! I can't believe you bought that joke of a voice!"
Flames came out of Kagome's eyes and Miroku stopped laughing.
"Anyhow, how was your date with that beautiful girl? What's her name? Mind introducing her to your favorite cousin?" Miroku asked with an innocent smile.
"Wow! That was a bundle of questions.. Uhh. Our walk was fine, we went to an ice cream parlor. Her name is Sango. And.... No. Not in a million years. The only way you'll get to know her is it you work your way to doing it. Not sure if she'll want to know you after that little grope fest."
Miroku's face transformed from a smile to a frown and he put his head down. Kagome rolled her eyes.
"But if it means that much to you...then I guess so. Whatever."
His head shot up with a smile.
"Thank you ever so much, dearest cousin." He pat her head. "Now be off with you as I fix my room."
Kagome rolled her eyes as she closed the door to Miroku's room. How could she have not seen that coming? Oh well.
When she reached her room she laid down. She took her hands to wipe her face. When she did, she realized that the was still wearing Sango's ring.
"Oh My gosh! I can't believe. Uh oh! Aiyaahh!!" Kagome screamed. She looked at the time and it was already 9:00 at night. Too late to go out. 'Ah! First thing tomorrow morning, I have to give this back to her. Good job Kagome! You've already messed this up! Aiyaah!'
