That evening at dinner:

''Yuki sweetheart, would you like some soup?"

"No thank you, aunt Mizuumi."

"Are you sure? You didn't have a bite of food all day."

"I'm not hungry…"

"You will become sick and weak, Yuki." Jii-san added.

"Jii-san is right cous, you won't be able to study and kami knows its hard work to study in 9th grade…" Kagome said.

"Fine I'll have some soup…" Yuki said, defeated.

"Yuki, you'll be sleeping in Kagome's room, we will bring in an extra mattress." Mizuumi said.

"You can have the bed if you like." Kagome added.

After dinner Kagome and Yuki went to talk in Kagome's room.

"I know how you feel. I remember loosing my father… I was seven, he, well, you know the story…"

"Yes, but, at least you have your ookasan and Souta and jii-san… I'm alone…"

"No you're not! You have us, we all love you a lot. When mom told me you were coming I was so happy, but then she told me the reason…

I really like aunt Emiko and Uncle Richard and Will too… even though we only see you once a year or so…"

"You won't see then ever again, there are no us anymore! Only worthless me…"

"Don't say that, Yuki! You are not worthless! You're beautiful and smart and funny as well."

"I'm no that funny anymore, I'm not that smart nor am I so beautiful."

"What are you talking about? You're gorgeous! I would love to have fair light skin like yours or those beautiful red lips, any one would love to date you!"

"Thanx, Kagome… you're the best."

For a while the girls talked about all kinds of stuff- cloths, school, boys, music, Etc.

"You have a uniform too? Can I see it?"

"Sure!" Kagome was proud of her school uniform.

"You mean I'll have to where THIS?"

"You don't like it?"

"It's, well… green and short…"

"How did your uniform look like?"

"We had jeans and a T-shirt with the school logo on it."

"Well if you don't like it maybe they'll let you wear the boy's uniform."

The laughed a bit.

"Yuki, would you like to go shopping tomorrow?"

"Sure, why not."

"Can I tell you something?"

"Sure. What's on your mind?"

"Well it will sound crazy but you can ask everyone in the house, it's true."
"What is it?"

"Promise not to tell anyone?"

"Of course, spit it out!"
"In the shrine there's a well see and I can jump inside and get to the Sengoku Jidai."
