This one has a song that goes with it since that was the drabble challenge. So below is the song. It's a Sango/Miroku drabble.
Gone
She looked at the path where she last saw him turn around and wave as she twirled the stem of the last flower he'd ever give her in her hand.
"Daddy?" asked the little girl on her hip.
"Daddy left," she answered with a shaky voice.
"Come back?"
"No," said Sango before giving her daughter a kiss on the forehead. "No, Daddy's gone."
She wiped away the last tear that fell. Her husband, her life, her everything was gone from her would soon be gone from this world. She became angry thinking how they were selfish. How they just had to have happiness and a child; a child who would have no father to pick her up when she fell or push her away from lecherous boys like him.
She took one last look behind her. Their time together was too short. If only…or… Biting back the what-ifs, Sango brought her eyes back to the front of her. He might be gone now, but one day she'd meet him again.
The boy's gone. The boy's gone home.
What will happen to a face in the crowd when it finally gets too crowded.
And will happen to the origins of sound after all the sounds have sounded
Well I hope I never have to see that day but by god I know it's headed our way
So I better be happy now that the boy's going home. The boy's gone home.
And what becomes of a day for those who rage against it
And who will sum op the phrase for all left standing around in it
Well I suppose we'll all make our judgement call
We'll walk it alone, stand up tall, then march to the fall
So we better be happy now that we'll all go home.
Be so happy with the way you are
Be so happy that you made it this far
Go on be happy now. Please be happy now
Because this is something else
this is something else
I tried to live my life and live it so well
But when it's all over is it heaven or is it hell
I better be happy now that no one can tell, nobody knows
I'm gonna be happy with the way that I am
I'm gonna be happy with all that I stand for
I'm gonna be happy now because the boy's going home.
The boy's gone home.
