Chapter 3 Home again

After Kagome's shower she slipped on a pair of black hip huggers and a dark blue shirt that read 'Just turn around and walk away'.

As she walked down the stairs, she saw Kaori sitting in the kitchen on her Uncle Souta's lap wile he helped her eat her pancakes.

"Hey sis sleep well?" Souta asked as she slowly walked into the kitchen. She was still a little tired.

"Don't I always." She said smiling at her now 17-year-old brother.

"Mommy are we going home tuday" Kaori asked hopping the answer was a yea. Kagome knew that Kaori loved spending time at nanas and Jii-chan but she loved our apartment and she probably missed it by now.

Kagome and Kaori lived in a 3-bedroom apartment building. It wasn't fabulous but it was nice. It has an average size Kitchen/dinning room, a large living room that was connected to the Kitchen. Kagome had the master bedroom, Kaori had the medium sized bedroom and they used the smallest as a playroom/study. Kagome and Kaori's rooms were actually pretty big. Kagome had a Queen size bed, a television, a bookcase, a desk and a laptop, and last but not least a walk in closet. Her room was nothing special, painted white like the rest of the apartment.

Kaori's room on the other hand, was just a tad bit smaller than Kagome's but it was full of toys games and stuffed animals. She has a Twin sized bed with one of those light blue Princess Canopy things you can but at the store and hang from the ceiling. Her walks even though they were white were covered with pictures and paintings. All her stuffed animals were lined up against the wall next to her bed except for her favorite stuff animal doggie that she kept on her bed.

"Ya we are leaving soon after you eat breakfast so as soon and we will get you all washed up and dressed and then we are off." Kagome said answering her daughter's question.

"Ok mommy!" Kaori said taking another bite of her pancake, "awl done" she said with her moth full of food.

"Kaori how many times do I have to tell you not to chew with your mouth full?" Kagome said putting her hands on her hips.

Swallowing Kaori answered "sorry mommy"

And let her drupe her head a little before looking up with big puppy dog eyes (A.N. no pun intended) "do you forgive me"

"Of course I do, now lets go get you cleaned up and dressed" Kagome said picking up a now smiling Kaori and placing her on her hip.

Turning to Souta she said, "Souta could you do me a favor and pack up her things but leave an outfit out for her to wear today PLEASE." Giving Souta the same puppy dog eyes that Kaori was just giving her.

"Ok sis" Souta said laughing, then returned to eating his breakfast.

> > > > > >

After giving Kaori a bath kagome rapped her up in a towel and walked to her room. On her bed was a bag full of Kaori's cloths and on top were the cloths that Souta picked out for her to wear.

Souta had picked out blue jeans with a curvy designed up the side of one of the pant legs and a dark blue shirt that said 'little angel' with a halo around the a.

Well at least we know Uncle Souta is good at picking out cloths that match, don't we!" Kagome said after her daughter was fully dressed. "Not like Uncle Miroku."

Kaori giggled remembering how Miroku tried to get her dressed one time last month but failed horribly.

"Well let's hurry up and say bye-bye to everyone so we can get home. Boyo probably misses you." Kagome said as she saw her daughter's eyes light up at the mention of Boyo their incredibly fat cat.

"OK!" she said and they started to walk down the stairs.

> > > > > >

Kagome and Kaori walked into their apartment, surprised to see Sango and Miroku sitting on the couch.

"Aunty Sango! Uncle Roku" Kaori yelled running up and giving them a big hug. Kaori could pronounce Sango's name fine but had some trouble saying Miroku's name so now he was called Uncle 'Roku' for shot.

"Hey Kido!" Miroku said giving her a big hug.

"Hey Sweetie!" Sango said giving her a kiss on the cheek before asking her to go into the playroom wile she talked to mommy.

"So what's up?" Kagome asked when she heard the playroom door shut.

"Well you see…." Sango started off but couldn't seem to figure out a way to say it.

"When you were gone…" Miroku tried to finish.

"We kind of planned a party for tonight and we wanted to know if you could come?" Sango said still looking a little nervous even though Kagome couldn't see why.

"I don't see why not, I just have to find a babysitter for Kaori assuming other people are going to be there." She said looking up her baby sitters phone #. "Who's coming?"

"Well Me, Miroku, Hojo, Ami, InuYasha, Koga, Ayame." She said very fast but Kagome heard the name anyway.

"InuYasha!" she wined

"Oh, please Kagome, PLEASE come!" Sango begged. "For me?"

"Fine, I can't believe I am willingly going to a party with InuYasha, but I will do it." She said in kind of a depressed manner.

"YAY!" Sango said pulling her friend into a hug, "we haven't all hung out together in over a year and a half ago!"

"Man, I thought I was finally getting luck.'" Kagome joked and hugged her friend back.

"Who knows Kagome you might get the perfect chance to tell him about Kaori." Miroku said with an evil smile on his face.

"Miroku you KNOW I do NOT want him to know about Kaori… I'm not ready for that yet." She whispered the last part.

"I know but don't you think Kaori deserves a Family?" said Miroku pulling her into a hug.

"I know… I know" Kagome said sadly them perked up remembering the party. "So what are we going to do at this party anyway?"

'You'll find out when you get their." Sango said and walked away.
