Nobody talked to Kagome most of the day except to inform her that she was
going to be attending a dinner party that night. She didn't quite know who
would be there but she did know that they were coming to see her. She
guessed that they were apart of the 'family' and were going to inspect her
behavior and such. Well she would give them a show worth watching. By the
end of the night the family will wish her to be outlawed.
"Honey can I come in?" It was her mother and she had cracked the door open
slightly to peek in. She was very distressed, it was clear on her still
beautiful face. Kagome came to her mother and opened the door fully.
"Of course you can. I am not mad at you mom. Just your husband." She
grasped her mother's delicate hand and led her to the four-post bed.
"Well, you are not the only one, but I don't blame him. He was born into
the family, he did not create it." Her mother had such love for the one man
that Kagome hated more than anything. "Tell me, what will you be wearing
tonight?"
"If you hadn't noticed mom I kind of packed extra light. You'll have to
help me. I have never been to a dinner party."
"Oh yes I forgot that you didn't have a chance to get your things together.
How silly of me. I will help you. No worries dinner parties in this family
are usually always very short. Once we never even made it to desert."
"Why?"
"Lets just say that they do not always get along with their loved ones, and
yet they would willingly give their life for one. Such a strange way of
living don't you think?"
"I would say strange is an understatement. What are you going to wear?"
Kagome quickly changed the subject before she said something she would
regret. Her mom looked so happy now compared to earlier that day. Was it
because she was here with her?
"You know the same old same old. Come to my room I have plenty of dresses."
Shooting off the bed in a hurry her mother raced out to her own room with
Kagome on her heels.
As they entered Kagome stood in awe. Everything had an Asian theme, but
she noticed one thing out of place. In the corner of the room, bordered bye
plants that she couldn't identify, was a Yoda in a large glass case. Not
being able to squash her undying curiosity she inquired about the artifact.
"That silly thing. Paul insists on keeping it. I swear he has the hardest
time letting go. It's the real thing you know. Well, sort of. See it was
the same Yoda that was shown for the three original Star Wars movies'
Opening Nights. He's Paul's absolute favorite piece of art. If that's what
you call it."
"Feh." Kagome replied shortly. She went back to analyzing the well-
decorated room. She loved it and she knew her mother did too. Without
realizing it her mom had started pulling clothes out of her walk-in closet
and laying them on the bed. They were all very pretty, and clearly
expensive cocktail dresses. The teenager stood staring before excitedly
putting the dresses up to her and swirling around. "What do you think?"
"Your color is most definitely black. It makes your beautiful eyes sparkle.
You must have them from your father. Blue eyes don't run in my family line
unfortunately."
"Yeah. So which one? I mean you have so many black dresses. You know I am
not any good at this stuff."
"Well I suppose I forgot. It has been awhile." She choked out forcefully.
Blinking the tears away she lifted one of the dresses into the air. "This
one. It's perfect, right?"
Kagome looked thoughtfully at the item and then said, "there is only one
way to find out." Gleefully she snatched the dress and ran to the bathroom
connected to the master bedroom.
She was back out before her mother could even pick out the outfit she would
wear. As she looked her daughter over she once again came close to crying.
She had missed Kagome so much. So much that it hurt like no other. She was
lucky to see Souta once a month, but she hadn't been able to visit her
daughter in six years. It was her fault. Paul had given permission for her
to go see Kagome, but she had refused. It would kill her. She wouldn't have
been able to come home if she saw her 'baby' girl, and that would only
cause more trouble.
She could barely believe how beautiful Kagome had turned out. She looked
nothing like her, but that was to be expected considering they did not
share the same blood. No, she had adopted her while she was still living
with her second husband. She still remembered the incredible feeling she
had when she first held the girl, along with it was the memory of leaving
her.
"It's absolutely perfect. You are going to break hearts tonight!"
"Mommy? Can I ask you a question?"
"Sure what is it?"
"What is your last name? Did you take Paul's or did you keep your maiden?"
"Why do you ask honey?"
"Just curious I guess."
"No I changed it. You are looking at the new and improved Judy lee
Reshinio." Mrs. Reshinio posed and held up a peace sign. Kagome raised an
eyebrow and then burst out laughing. She finished seconds later and shook
her head at her humorous mother.
"So did you pick out what you are going to wear?"
"Yeah I am going to go change now. In my closet, near the back I think, are
some of my smaller shoes. From the looks of it your feet are just as small
as they used to be." Judy called over her shoulder before closing herself
into the bathroom.
Kagome sighed with content and chose the shoes she would wear. They were
black stilettos with straps that tied up her calf. Being that she was quite
petite the heels made her look tall and curved, and displayed wonderfully
how very toned and thin her body was.
The dress she was wearing only came down to her mid thigh and because she
was brilliantly shaped it accentuated her legs perfectly. The material was
made of soft silk with tiny rhinestones lining the bottom. It dipped low
into the small of her back, showing her smooth, pale skin. The top of the
dress climbed just above her collarbone and strapped around her fragile
neck by a silver chain. The chain swung down her bare back.
She debated on how to fix her hair when finally she decided just to wear it
down. From behind she heard her mother come toward her so she looked up
into the vanity mirror not to see her mom but instead one of the house
servants.
"The guests have arrived ma'am and I was told to retrieve you. Would you
like me to grab you a coat?" The maid was in her middle ages and looked
very sophisticated. She kept her hair up in a tight bun and held her eyes
to the ground in respect.
"Yes, please, have you seen my mother? I thought she was still in the
bathroom but it seems she is not."
"She is already downstairs. Why don't you head down dear while I get your
coat."
"Okay that would be great. Thank you." Kagome allowed herself one more
check in the mirror before making her way to the guests. She reached the
bottom and heard voices talking in the living room. She waited for the
servant silently hoping to catch a little of the conversation from the
other room.
"Here you go ma'am. I figured it would go better with the dress." The maid
slipped a long, sheer shawl over Kagome's shoulders graciously. Without
another word the women left.
"Kagome?! Are you ready yet dear?!" Judy called from her new position by
the front door.
"Yes! Coming!" She strode quickly to where her mother's voice had come
from. The door was open and she could see retreating backs walking away.
Paul stood behind with his hand on the knob and motioned her outside.
He closed and locked the door, turned towards her and smiled. She didn't
know why, but something about that smile unnerved her. "I would be a good
girl tonight Kagome."
"Aren't I always." She replied with a smile of her own.
The proceeded together down the concrete steps to join the rest of the
group in a black limo. It was dimly lit in the car so Kagome had a hard
time seeing who was with them. They arrived at the designated restaurant
with little communication. One at a time they exited the vehicle and faced
each other.
Kagome's breath caught in her throat when she laid eyes on the most
dangerously handsome man she had ever seen. His hair was silver and long.
It stopped half way down his back. He didn't have it up but you could see
several small braids filling it.
She made her way down his body and back up to find him looking at her with
an open mouth. She gasped when she saw that his eyes were far from a normal
color. They were the richest gold and were framed by thick, black lashes.
He had a manly square jaw and a sturdy neck. He was gorgeous and she could
tell that he knew he was too.
After gaining some composure she finally came back to reality and noticed
that the perfectly made man was still staring at her strangely. Taking his
attention the wrong way she did a quick double take on how she looked and
ran her tongue along the front of her teeth. She came to the conclusion
that nothing was wrong with her, but yet he was still staring. She waved
her hand in front of his face and he jumped back as if he was just woken
from a trance.
"Kagome this is Inuyasha. Inuyasha this is my step daughter Kagome."
