Chapter III - Taking a Break
The rain had hit them hard. Each drop hitting the ground with a small
splash. Miroku was very thankful that he had found a place for them to
stay before the rain had hit.
It was a big mansion, with large windows and many rooms. Boy was he
proud of himself. Now how often can one find such a luxurious place?
And the owner even had a young daughter! When the owner heard him say
'black ominous cloud', he practically begged Miroku to stay! Seriously,
Miroku was getting better at his job by the day!
The owner, a short and slightly plump man in his mid-fifties, offer a room for each one of Miroku's companion. He then introduce Miroku to his daughter, but to Miroku's surprise, she was a bit young. Perhaps, around Kagome's age? But who cares, a girl is still a girl and no matter how young she is, he must not let his infamous question go by. But to Miroku's rotten luck, the poor girl was constantly around her father...making him quite uncomfortable...
"Please I insist!" said the short little man. "Allow me to serve you and your companion a full dinner!" The man smile and gestured them to follow him.
"Hey, Miroku," Inuyasha said quietly, "What'd you do to the old geezer?"
Miroku felt small beads of sweat coming down the side of his head. "Uhh, nothing." And seriously, he did nothing! The old man is just so insisting, and how could he refuse!
Kagome elbowed Inuyasha in the side, "Inuyasha!" she whispered, "You're gonna blow our cover away!"
"Feh!"
The man soon came to a stop. He stood infront to two slightly big rooms. Walking towards the first room, he slid the door open. Inside were displays of the most delicious food Miroku had ever seen! Wow...
The man did the same to the other room, inside were the same display.
"Uhh..." Miroku began slowly, "How come there is two rooms with our dinner?"
The man turn to face Miroku and smile. "I want you and your companion to have a good time. And if you need anything just ask." He pointed down the hall to 4 more rooms. "There's 4 empty rooms there for each one of you...please make yourself at home." With that, the old man wave byes to Miroku and company then slowly disappear down the hall.
"Wow, somebody's nice..." Shippo said once the man was out of sight.
"Yeah," Kagome agreed.
"So, about our dinner." Miroku said mischievously, eyeing Sango playfully.
"Miroku..." Sango began quietly, but just then one of the servent girl walked in with their food. As if on cue, Miroku got up from where he was sitting and rushed over the young girl. The girl served the food both to Miroku and Sango and once she was done Miroku grabbed both of her hands.
"Would you do me the honour of bearing my child?"
Sango was mad, infact she was more than mad! Here she was, going to tell him something that would indeed make him very happy and he goes off and flirted with another girl? Not only that but he asked her to bear his children! Oh, she's mad alright. Maybe even beyond mad. But something inside of her told her that she's not that mad...but hurt.
Usually Sango would pick up her Hiraikotsu and hit him over the head with it, but right at this moment she wasn't in the mood to hit anyone. Getting up from where she was sitting, Sango ran out of the room. She need some fresh air.
Running past the room where Inuyasha and Kagome was having their dinner, Sango ran into her own room and close the door behind her. She sat against the door and listen to the droplets of rain hitting the roof just outside.
She wasn't mad, she was just a bit upset and hurt...the more that she think about it, the more it seems to hurt. Did I do the wrong thing...? Getting pregnant with Miroku's child?
Her eyes were beginning to sting, refusing to admit that she was crying...she shook her head several times. Tears were just streaming down the side of her face and she was helpless to stop it from coming down. Finally, giving in to her own tears Sango pull her knees against her chest and wrap both her arms around them.
Was it a mistake? she continue to ask herself. She tried convincing herself that it wasn't a mistake...but her heart continue to throb and it hurts her deeply. Even more than the wounds she received from her previous battle. Burying her face in her arms, she continue to cry, just as Kagome had once told her. Just let it all out...let it all out and then she'll feel better afterwards.
It has been several hours, Sango had cried herself to sleep. But even with all the frustration and stress-fulness of crying, it cannot keep her sleeping. It was probably around mid-night when Sango woke up.
The moon was behind some clouds, but enough of its lights were visible to light up Sango's room by a little. The night is quiet and the sounds of crickets chirping can be heard, indeed it was quiet.
Slolwy and silently, Sango slid open the door of her room. It was dark and quiet, and the rain had cleared out a bit, sending chilly wind this way and that. Moonlight shone on the tiny water droplets, making it sparkle and shine in its place on some leaves, about to fall of the trees. Even the flowers in the garden were shining in the moonlight. Sango look at the sight in awe, but her concentration was lost when a cricket chirp out loudly, making her jump and remember why she snuck out of her room in the first place.
Making her way around carefully, Sango came to Kagome's room, slid the door open and sneak inside.
"Kagome," Sango said in a hushed voice.
Kagome moan and roll over.
Sango grab both her shoulders and began shaking her. "Kagome! Get up!"
Kagome moan even more.
"Kagome!" Sango almost screamed, but kept her voice low enough so that she won't wake the others.
Kagome's eyes snap open and she sat up suddenly, "Inuyasha!"
Sango stared at Kagome wide-eyed, "Kagome, it's me, Sango."
Kagome rubbed her eyes and look at Sango.
"Oh, sorry. My bad. You just sorta started me. So Sango, what brings you to my room at such late hours?"
"Kagome, I need to talk to you about something very important..."
