Chapter 4

As they get out of the car and walked inside the airport, Kagome nagged Inuyasha endlessly about how he felt when he fell in love. Actually, she was a little bit angry with her friend that he didn't say anything about his love life to her when she was telling Inuyasha all about her feelings for Kouga.

So, while Kagome's mother asked something to the lady at the desk nearby, they stopped to talk. Inuyasha's heart is now beating so fast that he thought it would burst any moment now. He finally turned and looked deep at Kagome's eyes, wanting to show the pained he felt inside, the pain he has endured for the past years. Then, he said slowly, "Your right. All the things you feel right now, I felt them too. It does feel good to fall in love. You feel as if nothing can go wrong. You feel as if you're floating in the air. The only problem is…honestly Kagome, it's really hard to tell your feelings to the on you love. But…but…" his voice trailed away into nothingness.

"Umm…Inuyasha?" Kagome asked, uncertainly, still curious about his friend's love life, but now worrying because of the sadness he saw in Inuyasha's handsome face.

"But when the person you love already loves somebody else…it's painful. Of course, I know that when you love a person you must set him or her free. But it's really painful…you feel as if you wanted to vanish from the surface of the earth. You could do nothing, but watch your beloved happy in another's arms, not wanting any other thing in this world but to be by his side…"

Kagome was taken aback when she saw a tear escape from Inuyasha's violet orbs. He wiped it hastily and looked away.

'I didn't know he's been in so much pain because of love.' Kagome realized while still staring at her friend's face.

"Sorry if I've been acting silly…" he muttered not meeting Kagome's eyes. Then, he walked away for only a few paces.

Mrs. Higurashi walked towards her daughter and said, "You'll have to wait for a few minutes. They're still checking the plane for problems."

"Mom?"

"What is it, dear?"

"Do you think I ought to leave Inuyasha like that?" she asked with her finger pointing at Inuyasha's direction. "I mean, I think he needs someone to talk to…"

"Like you?"

"Yeah. If I leave him, do you think he'll be lonely?"

"Well, I know that he's got other buddies at school. But…" her mother answered uncertainly.

"But I'm the only one who can understand him?"

"I think so dear. Uhhh…well…anything can happen. It depends on the choices we make. Why don't you ask him if you ought to stay or leave?"

"Okay." She said as she finally made her way to Inuyasha. "Inu-chan?" she said, as she held his hands and looked into those eyes that always made her feel special.

"What's the problem, Inu-chan?" she asked, but Inuyasha remained silent. She thought quickly and finally made a decision. "I think… I won't go."

"W—what?! You won't go? Why?"

"Stupid! With you acting like that and everything? You need someone to talk to, someone who'll understand you. You need me."

"No. Honestly, Kagome. I—I'm fine. You shouldn't miss this opportunity.

"But, Inuyasha…" she said, hesitantly.

"Go Kagome. I'll be fine. Anyway you'll be back right? So, nothing to worry." Inuyasha answered, trying to smile to show her that he really is okay, but failed.

"Okay…If that's what you say, then…I'll go." She was still in doubt because of Inuyasha's behavior. And something in her heart, a voice deep inside, tells her not to go and leave Inuyasha.

"Kagome, it's time to go." Her mother said.

She looked at her mother then at Inuyasha. She felt as if she never wants to let go of his hands.

"Kagome, it's time to go." Inuyasha repeated. "Take care. I'll miss you…" he said affectionately, finally pulling his hands and waving goodbye as Kagome walked to the entrance.

Kagome now seated comfortably, thought again of Inuyasha.

'Am I right in my decision of leaving him?' Kagome thought, pain surging deep inside her heart.
