"Oh, Niko! What am I going to do?" I whined and whined to my friend. Nothing could compare to my misery! If only Shiki hadn't expressed her feelings of the missing daddy in her life. Oh, really! What am I going to do?

You see, I gave up dating after high school, and focused on my career. I wanted to become a professer at Shikon University. My plans and goals to achieve that was totally wiped out when I realised I really wanted to take care of a child. So I adopted a little cute girl named Shikiri. She was only 5 at the time when she became a part of my life. I dropped out of school, and applied for full-time and part time jobs.

But lately, I couldn't handle those jobs and taking care of Shiki was getting out of hand. I became more stressed. Shiki complained I was boring and always worked. I hadn't had a decent sleep or even a dinner!

The reason why I had stopped dating was because of my old love life. I had a wonderful boyfriend named Koga. We had everything planned out. We were going to have children. Atleast 2-3. We were going to buy a small house up in Kyoto. We were going to study to become professers together.But I was betrayed! My whole heart shattered. He had another woman in his life behind his back! He even had the gull to tell me he was going to tell me sooner or later. And guess what? He still wanted me! I dumped him immediately, and swore never to love again.

"Kags, I don't know what you can do. What I'm going to say next, you'll only shake your head on me. " Niko Yokura. She's helped me in a lot of ways. She'sawaitress at Club Mira. My best friend, Miroku Kazaana, owns the club. Niko was Miroku's girlfriend once, but it didn't work out. So now they think of eachother as family. Miroku, you can say has a 'cursed hand' as he would put it. He's a lecherous pervert. But we all can see he has his heart settled on my bestest friend in the whole universe, Sango Taiji.

Their love is pretty hilarious. Sango denies that she holds no feelings towards the pervert, but yet she cares for him a lot.

"What are you going to say next?" I'm in no position to get angry if I came for advice. That wouldn't be fair would it? I'm sucha burden to my friends sometimes. I wonder how they deal with my problems!

"Fall inlove. Get married." It's like, my friends are my problem solvers. Should I get them gifts to show my appreciation? I'm sure Sango would like a-

"HELL NO." Fall inlove? GET MARRIED? Like that'll happen! I vowed to never love anyone else again!

"It's like, the only way, Kags. You need a husband. A daddy to take care of lil' sweet Shiki. She's not dumb you know. She's a lot smarter than the other kids I take care of at daycare. You do realise she read your other diary from long ago in high school? She knows what's going on. She'll probably catch on why there is no daddy in her life." Oh, I sometimes wish Shiki wasn't too smart.

"I know, I know. I still don't know how she got her hands on it!"

"Hm. I guess one of the mysteries of life."

"Probably. But I really don't think there's a man out there who's upto my standards. Who knows if they're like that bastard!"

"Kagome, trust me. Not every man is like Koga."

True, true. But it'll be hard to convince me still. But gosh, falling inlove just takes the cake! How can I fall inlove? Someone who'll love Shiki, who she will love him back.

...Why do I feel so desperate all of a sudden to try this out?

"Well, it's getting late. I'll see you later, Niko. Thanks a lot." I waved at her and turned to leave.

"No prob, Kags. Take care, okay? And give love a second chance."

I just turned around and nodded. As I left the club, I smelled the fresh air.

To fall inlove again... Giving love a... second chance.
