Why Me?

Chapter 1: The School
Three months later, Kagome began High school in Tokyo High. She always had on an emotionless face. She ignored everyone and was almost completely ignored by everyone else. Almost. She was a social outcast, so naturally everyone would ignore her, but she looked remarkingly like the most popular girl in school, Kikyo.
Kikyo was rich and liked by everyone only for that reason. Everyone hated her attitude. She acted like a slut and she thought that she could get any guy she wants, because she thought she was beautiful. Since she was such a vain person and she saw Kagome with "her" face, she got really angry. She went around saying that Kagome was a witch and she could take the form of anyone she wanted to and since she wanted to be popular, she had to take her face.
Because of all these rumors, Kagome was shunned by everyone except for the teachers. Everyday she was ignored by everyone, so she ignored them all back. During lunch, she would sit by herself underneath the cherry-tree and eat. If anyone saw this sight, they would say that it was beautiful, but since nobody liked Kagome, they would all deny the fact.
She met Kikyo's boyfriend during the first couple days of school. He had beautiful black hair that went down to his waist. He was also popular, handsome, and strong, but, in Kagome's eyes, he was a bastard, just like Kikyo. She despised them both. Since he was Kikyo's boyfriend, he would be the first to hear Kikyo's rumors and then spread it through his friends. So, whenever Kagome went by the "popular" people, she would always hear them say things about her, such as: "she's a witch, you heard Kikyo say that. I agree with her, because how else could she look like Kikyo?" "Watch out, she's here!" "I heard that she slept with men every weekend. I think she should just drop school and work in a whore house." Of course, none of these were true. She just held her head high, and walked straight through the mob of people.
Later into the school year, her father died. No one knew how he died. A funeral was held for him. Kagome and her family, which only consisted of three people now, were sitting at the front. They stood up and looked at body of Mr. Higurashi.in the casket. Kagome's mother and Sota were bawling her eyes out while Kagome's eyes remained dry and empty of feelings. She never felt his love, therefore she couldn't grieve for him. She stood there, just looking at her father until they closed the casket. Slowly, she just walked away.
*I see one thing in that body of yours. Not love Nor anger Nor sadness.
Just hatred
Towards me.
Even when you are dead You still Hold that feeling Towards me. What have I done to you To deserve this ?
Is it just simply Not being What you Want?*
Kagome walked home, alone while Sota and her mother remained to see Mr. Higurashi's casket buried. When she went inside her house, she went to the bathroom and turned on the faucet to warm and filled the tub. She went into her room and retrieved her clothes. Silently, she took off her clothes and lowered herself into the bathtub. She sat there, silently thinking about what had happened and what would happen when her mother and brother came home. After her bath, she put on her clothes quickly and went into her room.
That was when her mom and brother came home. The house was silent while both mother and son went to their room and grieved inside. Kagome poked her head outside when she heard the doors to their rooms close. She went down the kitchen and made a sand which for herself. Afterwards, she went to her room and wrote in her diary.
Dear Diary.
Father died today. I don't know how. Even though he died, I couldn't
grieve for him, because he never showed love to me after Sota was
born. He only loved me before, as his only child. The was the only
reason why he loved me. If I were male, would he love me as much as
Sota? I always heard him telling mother, when I was younger, that he
wanted another child, but male.
I remember that when I was about four, I showed an interest in piano
playing. Father noticed and bought a piano. He even found a teacher
to teach me. Since then, every night, I would play him a song that I
had learned. He would sit in his chair, and close his eyes, listening
to my music. All of this happened until I was six. That was when Sota
was born. That was when daddy stopped paying attention to me and payed
attention to Sota instead. Suddenly, the happy memories were replaced
by nightmarish ones. I have often wondered that if memories were like
sand and one has to hold on tight to keep it, then can I let go of it,
forget good and bad, and start all over again?
With that, Kagome put her diary away and crawled into bed . She fell asleep, only to be wakened in the morning.
