Yuki bursted out laughing. "That a good one Kagome-chan!"
"I mean it, seriously!"
"Yeah right!"
"Ask mom or jii-san or Souta!"
"Okay, I will."
They went downstairs.
"Aunt Mizuumi, I have a crazy thing to ask you. Can Kagome travel to the feudal era?"
"Why yes, did she tell you?"
"You're kidding, right?"
"No, not at all."
"You see!"
Kagome said triumphal
"I have to see to believe…"
"Fine, tomorrow after shopping we'll go! That is if you can come…"
"I knew you were lying!"
"No, it's just that not anyone can go threw."
"Whatever…"
After that they went to Kagomes' room, to sleep.
"Kagome chan, tell me something, is this whole
story WAS just to make me laugh, right?"
"NO! It's true!
I swear it, honest."
"But that is scientifically
impossible…"
"Well…yawn you'll see…" and
she fell asleep.
Yuki stayed awake for a while longer alone with her thoughts.
The next day at school.
"Kagome, who's the girl that came with you?"
"she's my cousin, Yuki."
"Why is she here?"
"I'm here because my parents were killed in a car
crash by a fucking stupid drunk and I have no one else in the world,
happy?"
"I'm sorry… I didn't know…"
"Whatever…"
Yuki sat by herself at a window seat.
The rest of the day went by smoothly. Nothing special happened and after the incident that morning everyone knew it's best to leave Yuki alone.
After school Kagome said bye to everyone and they went shopping.
"So Yuki, Where do you want to go?"
"I don't know… You know places here…"
"Well, you like jeans, spaghetti straps, and T-shirts, right?"
"Yeah."
"So let's go to Ryokugyoku Tsuki."
"Sure, why not…"
"Try this one on, Yuki chan!" Kagome handed her a white top with ume (plum blossom) designs on it.
"That's cool, thanx Kagome chan!"
After a long day Yuki got that top, a few blank spaghetti straps, a few cool t-shirts and a pair of blue jeans.
"Arigato, Kagome chan."
"What for?" she asked after taking a sip of her strawberry milkshake.
"For showing me around town and all…"
"No problem, I had a great time!"
"Kag…"
"OMG! I have to go
back!"
"What? Where to?
"To Inuyasha and the gang!"
"Oh you ah 'feudal era' boyfriend and the rest, right?"
"Yeah! He's not my boyfriend…"
"Come on Kag, give up the act…"
"I mean it! Come see!"
"Fine…."
