Chapter 3-More suspicions, no answers
"Where is Kagome, ma?" Sota asked his mother who was chopping celery for the stew she was cooking.
"She is probably the still in feudal era." She answered.
"But she has never taken this long to return." Sota stated.
"I know, I know," she answered, her voice shaking with worry. "I know Sota…she is probably just… too busy to come home." She made up an excuse daily so Sota wouldn't worry about his sister. Kagome had been gone for three months now, and she was starting to worry as well.
"Kagome will turn up at our doorstep again, Sota," She smiled wearily. "She will be dirty and covered in mud. But she will be there. She will." Kagome's mother made up these lies not only because she didn't want Sota to worry, also because she was easing her own heart. She was hoping that her daughter was just to busy to come home. She still had hope, and eventually, this hope would prove to be so strong, that it would last her for three months.
On Christmas, Sota had bought a present for Kagome, in hope that she would return for Christmas.
"She will return soon." Sota's mom had smiled. "She probably wants to spend time will that Inuyasha. After al, he is a handsome young, erm…half-man."
Sota had smiled wearily. He had hoped that Kagome would have returned for Christmas. He had hoped that she would have returned with her arms spread wide, ready for hugs, and an exciting explanation for her long disappearance.
"She has been gone for about three months at a time sweetie," Sota's mom had assured him. And as usual, she was right. Kagome had been gone for three months, and one, even four months. But she had always returned with a suspenseful tale to tell.
Sota started to believe his mother's hopeful stories of how Kagome would return with a breath-taking tale that they would listen to while sipping hot chocolate by the fire, and so, it soothed his heart, as well as his mother's.
