The next day after school Sango walked up the driveway of Miroku's house and rang the doorbell. She was surprised to find that his house was only a mile from hers. She heard movement in the house and Miroku finally opened the door. "Hey." He said "come on in." Sango walked in and he shut the door behind her. The house was dark except for the light that came through the windows. The place was quite messy like no one really bothered to clean up. "My books are up in my room." he said starting up the stairs and Sango followed after him. The house was also very quite. "Isn't anyone else home?" she said, a little nervous. "My uncle." Miroku replied. "He works nightshift as a security guard at a building downtown. He basically sleeps all day then goes to work."
When they got in the room Miroku knelt and looked under his bead. "What are you doing?" Sango asked "Looking for my books." He replied "I never study so I really don't know where they are; but if I were a book I think I'd hide under here." he said laughing. Sango laughed too. She looked around the room which didn't look much better than the rest of the house. Next to her there was a fish bowl with a tiny fish swimming in it. "Is this your pet?" she asked. "That's jaws my attack fish." he said, joking of course. Sango continued looking around and felt something touch her leg. "Miroku." she said angrily "What?" he said taking his head out from under the bed. Sango looked down and saw a cat.
"You have a cat too." she said kneeling to pet it. "He was my mom's." Miroku replied. "was?" said Sango "Yeah, my parents died in an accident when I was nine. I really don't like cats that much but I kind of couldn't get rid of him." "I'm so sorry." she said "I had no idea." Miroku came over and sat by Sango. "Its ok, I don't mind, you couldn't have known." He noticed she had a sad expression on her face. "Hey how bout after this we go get burgers; my treat." He said trying to cheer her up. Sango thought for a moment. "But I usually cook for my father and brother." "That's what they invented home delivery." Miroku said. "I'd probably starve without it. it can't kill them to order in one night can it." "Alright she replied. "I'll call them later and ask."
Miroku seemed to understand a little better after the lesson which was a miracle considering he wasn't listening very hard, although it seemed to Sango he had been. Sango closed the book "Well I guess that's about it." she said. "Good." Said Miroku grabbing a set of keys off his desk. "Let's go I'm starving." Sango followed him down stairs and to the garage. "It isn't much." He said "But it runs." They got in the car and drove to the nearest fast food restaurant. About halfway through her burger Sango said what she had been meaning to say for the entire lesson. "You know Miroku, my mom died when I was about the same as you were when you lost your parents. So I know its pretty rough." He reached across the table and touched her hand. "Thank you for your sympathy but were here to enjoy ourselves, so how about we talk about something else. Ok ." Sango was glad he wanted to change the subject. She didn't know why she had brought it up but some how she felt like she knew him better, that there was some strange connection she felt with Miroku now.
On the way to Sango's house Miroku turned on the radio. "Pick a station." He said "I don't care which one." Sango finally found a station playing her favorite song and she started mouthing the words. "You know." She said "This song is really fun to dance to; do you like to dance?" "Me," he replied "I can't even do the chicken dance. I guess I'm kind of dance challenged." They both started laughing. Miroku pulled into her driveway and Sango got out of the car. "See ya tomorrow." he said Sango paused for a moment. "Yeah, sure, see ya then." Miroku stayed in the driveway until he was sure she was in the house then drove off.
When Sango walked by the living room she heard her fathers voice which sounded angry. "Sango where on earth have you been! You're brother and I were worried sick about you." It just then Sango realized she had forgotten to call her father and tell him she was going out. "I'm so sorry." she said "I meant to call you. Miroku took me out for dinner when we finished studying as a thank you. I really did mean to call but I forgot." "Alright." he said a little softer. "Next time remember to tell me where you're going. Now go finish your homework if you haven't already and go to bed." Sango nodded and went to her room. "Good night father." she called.
She dropped her bag next to the desk in the corner of the room laid down on her bed. Her study date with Miroku hadn't been as bad as she had thought it would be.
