Unspoken Words
Basic Knowledge
"So, your mom isn't planning on firing me, right?" Sango asked Kagome as they walked along the sidewalk to the mall which was a few blocks away.
She stared back at her and shook her head. Her mother was way too cheerful and still too kind to fire anybody especially her like that. Besides, she still remembered that day when her mother read through the pile of papers and looked through her resume a few months ago.
"Ah! Kagome, dear! Your new friend is coming to see you!"
She stood up, hugging her old fat calico at, Buyo.
"Don't be shy!" She laughed and patted her on the back as Kagome was pushed through to the door and met face-to-face with a slightly older girl in front of her.
She had really long brown hair tied in the back with a ribbon, traditional but very elegant in a simple way. On her back was a very gigantic boomerang looking-thing (her Hirakotsu) and mama seemed to have no objection at all when she peered through.
"This is Sango!" She smiled. "This is Kagome!"
Sango smiled and shook her hand. "Umm... hi Kagome! From now on whenever you need help, I'll be there to fend them off and I'll be there even when there's serious trouble.
Kagome sighed and eagerly took her hand.
'Now mama doesn't have to keep throwing more paper balls, anymore! I can finally have someone to go out and play with!"
"Thank goodness!" Sango fanned herself with her hand. "I was sweating all day after I brought you back home since that incident."
Kagome turned around and stared with puzzled look on her face which seemed to say, "What incident? Is there something you're not telling me as a friend?
"Don't get worked all over about that. It's not healthy--" Sango's voice trailed as she stared at a small ice cream shop that was squeezed between a huge sushi bar and a bakery. She stepped a little closer to the window and was an inch away from pressing her face against the mirror. Her breath making the glass foggy and moist as her eyes looked across the different varieties.
She suddenly snapped out her dream-state and turned back to her crony.
"Ok, Kagome. I think it's time for healthy, sweet food." Her eyes started to twinkle.
She took her by the hand and instantly pulled her through the entrance of the sweets shop. Kagome pondered at the word called ice cream as Sango was taking her all over the place to see all the different types.
It was a very small and quiet shop.
But, it was very well furnished, modern and clean. The walls had wood paneling with a pale shy blue wallpaper as they narrow tables were lined against the walls with their tall chairs to accompany them.
Sango picked her choice and ordered a scoop of mango ice cream. Then, she tapped Kagome's shoulder and pointed towards to the isle of varieties.
She stuttered as she looked at the cold-looking containers filled with pink, yellow, brown and every color of the rainbow that you can even think of. What was this cold icy-looking thing? It looked so familiar in one sense but on the other hand, they reminded her those long stick thing that girls like her (not exactly like her) ate with the boy paying the cashier.
Sango watched her with such horror on her face. This…this girl doesn't even know her ice cream!????
~*~
They both walked out as Kagome nervously stared at her share of this cold-looking desert in both hands which were two large cones with five scoops of the following flavors: mint, chocolate, vanilla, peach, maple sugar, coconut, strawberry, green tea, cookie dough, mango, raisin and nuts and the rainbow colored one.
Sango licked her ice cream with the horror and surprise still remaining in her face.
This girl doesn't even know what is an ice cream and I thought that she would get out more and have fun in such a state but I guess I was wrong…. She glanced sideways at her face. "A girl's gotta do something when something this strange comes along…."
"Kagome-chan?" Sango gave a smile as Kagome stared at her with a look as to what to do in such a state when you had 2 very large cones of cold desert.
"This is an ice cream…Ice cream." She repeated.
"I cream?" Kagome asked as she shook her head and corrected it.
"Ice cream…."
"Ike cream…."
Some passer-byers stared at the two as they get repeating the word "ice cream" to each other and even one looked like she was going to call the hospital.
Sango signed at the hopelessness.
She watched her using all her force to correct her words but fail with every attempt.
The ice cream started dripping down the sides and trickle down her hands as Kagome continued to repeat the words in a strange manner.
"Kagome-chan. You don't have to try to say that word. Take a break and eat it. It's really good." She laid back in her seat and continued her work of thought as she licked the mango-flavored scoop.
Kagome stared back at her desert before watching Sango and giving it a lick.
It was really good!
Each scoop was in a beautiful color and every one tasted different. The brown one tasted really delicious and she could see that the pink colored one had what seemed to be sliced up frozen strawberries. She eagerly finished the cones in just a few minutes.

After a while, they finished their snack and passed by one of the huge department buildings with the latest fashion. Kagome looked back at Sango as they passed by the huge store. They usually went to this store whenever her mom sent them out shopping for new clothing for the season but why not here?
Apparently, Sango noticed this look on her face and ignored it.
This time… They were going to do something else different and something that was a whole lot better than killing their eyes (well her eyes) to see those huge numbers on the price tags.
They stopped in front of a huge store with thousand of posters for vegetables, fruits and sales on the latest tissue paper or junk…
Kagome tugged at her sleeve as Sango nodded for them to go on inside.
Eh? She stared at the thousands of aisles which was like a million times larger than that small ice cream shop. There was a fish place and a meat place and so much more! Never before had she seen so much food other than the dinner her mama set for the family on the table.
Sango smiled with amusement.
She lead all the way to the snacks section and pointed to the millions of junk food on the shelves.
"Now, Kagome. There are a few things that a girl yourself needs to learn at this age." She continued as she reached for a bag of chips on the top shelf.
