Chapter Nineteen: She deserves a Better Mother
Kagome's POV
I ran and ran. Yuki didn't deserve to be born to a mother like me. I ran deep into the forest, which was kind of stupid with my shorts and tank on. I was scratched at by bushes and branches, but I kept running until I collapsed. I just slipped on the mud since it had started raining a while ago. I lied there, crying. My baka father didn't have to ruin my family's life so long ago. I felt sorry for myself, my family, and my friends who had to endure me like this.
"You know you ruined people's lives when you left, you BAKA!" I screamed into the rain. The forest made it appear to be dark. Dark and raining. My life at this point. I looked back to when I found out that I was pregnant. I was so scared that I avoided people to protect them. I didn't want to get too close. When she was born, I wished that somehow that I wouldn't have to give her away. The wish was never fulfilled. It just died. Like a flower without water forever. With this chance that Kami gave me, I could raise my daughter without hiding in the shadows forever. Would Yuki ever forgive me for leaving her there at Sango's now twice? I hate my father and he will pay for what he did to my family and the damages he inflicted now. Yuki didn't need to see him. He was like a poison. Only without the antidote.
"Kagome!" a voice cut into the air. The rain was getting heavier and I felt like I was sinking into the mud like quicksand. Nothing was going to bring me out of the dark world that laid before me. It was like I blacked out. I couldn't answer the voice or tell who it was. "Kagome! Where are you!" InuYasha. He must have started to worry. Who can worry about a person who just happens to be weak? Strong most of the time, but weak now. This moment. Like someone just drained my energy away and expected me to be able to go on.
A figure move in the dark. I wish I knew who it was.
