Chapter 3-Phone Call
"You have got to be kidding me."
"Oh come on! You still have to fulfill that promise! Go do it then arrange a meeting! Isn't Inu-yasha going out of town next week to visit an old friend?"
"Yeah...but..."
"Then arrange it for then! I'm quite sure Sesshoumaru will be happy to finally meet his niece!"
"Oh fine."
Kagome sighed in defeat, grabbed her keys, waved good-bye to Sango and headed for the parking lot. She found her car, started it, and drove off in the direction of Sesshoumaru's apartment building.
.:.With Inu-yasha.:.
"So...are you coming to see me next week Yash?"
"Sure am. I can't wait to meet up with you Kikyou, it's been a while."
"Only a month."
"I know, but I miss you my love." Inu-yasha whined.
"I know you do, so why don't you leave her and marry me instead?"
"I wish I could, you know I do Kikyou, but I have a kid!"
"So..."
"Time will tell love, for now, I will see you in 72 hours."
.:.With Kagome.:.
Knock. Knock. Kno-
"Yes?" an impatient looking man with silver hair towered over Kagome for a moment before he realized who she was.
"Come in, although...I do not see the young one with you."
Kagome stepped in and cleared her throat. "That is one of the reasons I am here. The other is to do the final check up on Rin."
"Hn."
"Otousan? Who is here?"
"Rin, do you remember Mrs. Taisho?"
"Uncle Inu-yasha, whom I've never met,'s wife?"
"Correct."
"Hi!" Rin said, smiling directly at Kagome. Kagome smiled back, and did a brief scan of the now 13 year-old. Her black hair was now left down, instead of the customary side ponytail. There was no longer a gap between her front teeth either. They were perfectly straight when she smiled.
"Hi Rin. I just need to ask you a few questions while your Otousan steps out of the room, alright?"
"No problem. Cya Otousan!" Sesshoumaru rolled his eyes and left the room.
"Alright Rin; I need to know if..."
Kagome questioned Rin for around 10 minutes, and then let the smiling girl bound into the room where her father was waiting. She smiled up at him and ran back to lead Kagome into the kitchen.
"So, Mrs.Taisho, when do I get to see my niece?"
Kagome laughed. "We're way past last names, Sesshoumaru, and I just got off of work. Your case was the last one I had to do today. And since Inuyasha is going out of town in three days, I figured you could meet Kimi then."
"That will work. Shall Rin come along to meet her cousin?"
"If she wants to she's welcome!"
"I would like that very much Kagome-chan!"
"Then you are welcome in my home. Hmmm, let's see. How about Friday at 4 pm? We could all go out for dinner actually, and Kimi has no extra-curricular activities at that time..."
"That works. Rin doesn't either."
"Then it's settled. If you'll excuse me, it seems I am needed at Kimi's school." Kagome stood up, shook hands with Sesshoumaru; gave Rin a hug, then left.
.:.At Kimi's School.:.
"Miss Taisho, why on EARTH would you do something like that?"
"He was trying to look down my gym shirt!"
"THAT IS NO REASON TO KICK HIM IN THE BALLS!"
"DO NOT PRESUME YOU ARE GOING TO YELL AT ME MISS BROWN! THAT MAN HAD EVERY RIGHT TO A GOOD KICK IN THE NUTS FOR LOOKING DOWN A STUDENTS SHIRT! HES A PERV AND SHOULD BE FIRED!"
"You AREN'T firing this teacher?" a dangerous voice said from the doorway and Kimi breathed a sigh of relief; her mother.
"Erm, well, you see Mrs. Taisho...the-err, supposed teacher is quite respectful, and seeing as Miss Taisho here is in trouble once a we--"
"You dare think my daughter is lying?"
"I...uh...erm..."
"Now; that teacher is going to be fired. Kimi will be sent back to class. Actually, no; she will be coming with me. I need to get her foot checked."
The teacher gaped, and acted like a fish out of water for a few moments before regaining her composure. "Yes Mrs. Taisho."
"Good day! Kimi."
The two females walked from the office, down the corridor and outside, never speaking a word. They entered the car, and Kimi instantly started talking.
"Thank you soooooooooooooo much. That teacher is such a perv; he's been looking down girl's shirts all semester. I was just waiting for the perfect moment, see? As soon as he glanced down my shirt while I was doing push-ups, I stood up, and kicked him in the balls while he was in that stupid crouch position ogling me." Kimi put on a triumphant smirk and looked at her mom for approval.
"Good job, honey. You know how much I absolutely detest people like that. Ice cream?"
"Yes please!"
Kagome smiled at her daughter who now sat watching the road wind, her silver ears swiveling around, catching all the different sounds they could process.
Turning the car into their favorite ice cream shop, Kagome cut the engine. Kimi jumped out, and took off running to the parlor. Kagome followed her daughter, smiling. Kimi immediately ordered her favorite ice cream, chocolate peanut-butter swirl. Kagome stuck with a simple strawberry and they sat down in their usual booth.
"So, Kimi. I have a question."
"Let's hear it mum." Kagome smiled at her 15 year-old. Kimi just didn't know how much Kagome preferred the British terminology for 'mom' instead of the English or Japanese.
"How would you like to meet your uncle?" Kimi choked on her ice cream.
"Y-you mean, the -cough- one that I've -splutter- never met because -gasp- dad hates him?"
"That's the one." Kagome said, thumping her hanyou daughter on the back.
"But, I thought I wasn't allowed to meet him!"
"Do you want to?"
"Yeah...but...dad doesn't like him..."
"But you don't have any uncles besides him. Your father is going out of town for a week in three days, and your Uncle Sesshoumaru is anxious to meet you."
"Whoa, whoa, whoa! You've already talked to him about this!"
"Yes, I have. I went to him when I needed help acting professional, and he gave it to me. In return, he wanted to see his only niece. Inuyasha had cut off all contact with him, so he didn't even know he had a niece until I mentioned you too him. He's got a daughter named Rin as well, who's adopted, she went through my work, and is a year younger than you. This Friday the four of us are going out to dinner."
"You have this all planned out don't you?"
"Yes."
"Alright. I'm defiantly in, though. I thought I would never get to meet him or my cousin!" Kagome laughed.
"Well, Friday night you will, do not fret."
"I can't wait."
