When Daddy Returned
Chapter Two


Kagome froze, unable to do anything, not even breathe. She felt her world swim, and the words weigh heavily upon her.

Coming back.

Coming back.

Your father is coming back to us.

"No!" she screamed as she fell to the floor. Mrs. Higurashi was startled, and jumped back from Kagome like she held a disease.

"My goodness, I thought you'd be happy, he said you would. He said you could become his little hime again," she scolded. Kagome's eyes watered, he always called her his little hime whenever he was about to go into her. She shivered and rocked herself to and fro.

"He can't come back mom! He can't!" she howled like a child. She ran to the well house but was stopped before she even got there. Her mom, huffing and puffing stood in her way, her long hair loose from the high bun she kept it in.

"I can't have you going back there muttering the lies you used to as a child. That...that FREAK might come back here. I've seen the sword and claws-" Kagome jumped at her, but forgot her mother's strength. She was soon on her back, staring up into the face of a very angry woman.

She covered her eyes, it was just like when she was a little girl! Her mother was still refusing to listen to truth. She remembered her father laughing and making her feel like she was lying when she told her mom he came into her in the night. She couldn't help the powerless wave that hit her.

"When mom? When is he coming?" she asked with a break in her voice. Her mother softened.

"This very night! I have food to prepare, rooms to clean, Kagome I suggest you put on your best dress and brush that hair of yours!" she looked chipper, back to her old self. She started to walk away from her only daughter when she turned, remembering.

"Your father said don't wear any papis, you won't need them. He said you'd understand the word." And she went back away into her home.

Kagome shivered, she couldn't believe...no wouldn't believe that he'd do that. It'd been to long! She was almost sixteen!

'Don't wear papis...' she thought. How dare he! 'Papis' was her childhood word for panties.. But her anger was gone as soon as it came. After all, what could she do to him?

BGLI: Confusion anyone? Aw crap, if my parents see this they're gonna freak I swear.

I'm just trying my hand at this angst stuff. Flame if you must, but let it be constructive.

Thanx for the reviews! You make me feel so loved!
