Preface
Kagome looked through the field and watched the wheat sway
back and forth with the breeze like a pendulum. Life was so hard now.
Between school and Inuyasha and the others, she didn't know if she
could take it anymore. She would have to decide if being with Inuyasha
was worth it or just to go home, or if there was a greater purpose than to
find Naraku. She thought back on the times. Could this be what she had
wanted? She could sense someone approaching, and turned her head.
Inuyasha sat down next to her and smiled.
"What are you doing all by yourself?" He asked.
"Just thinking," said Kagome quietly. No matter how much she loved
him, she could never tell him so. The fear of rejection was just to strong.
Many times she had thought to herself what life would be like if she told
him. Would they be together, or would they no longer be friends? In
her mind, she knew that for them to find Naraku, they would have to
keep their mind focused on him, not on love.
Inuyasha could sense that Kagome was feeling sad, but he didn't
know what to do. His compassion for her was stronger than he could
ever become, and he didn't know how to cheer her up. He glanced at her
and sighed in self-pity. He was so close to being with her. He wanted to
hold her and tell her everything was alright, that he would be with her
forever, but some things just cannot come so easy. He knew what he
wanted, but failed on reacting with how to get it. But he knew one thing
he could do.
"Kagome, I want to show you something"
