Chapter 2

Hey! Back again! Please review!

Kagome looked up and saw Miroku, "I..I mean a letter of a 4 leaf clover,"

"letter of a 4 leaf clover?"

Kagome nodded,

"So, you want a 4 leaf clover?"

"yup"

Miroku looked at her strangely. "What am I saying! The letter of a 4 leaf clover! That doesn't even make sense! Can I be more idiotic?" thought Kagome. Miroku smiled, "Nice to meet you. My name isMiroku. We have the same economic class,". Kagome nodded, "Yes, economic class.". Both of them smiled, and Miroku bent down to look for the clover. Both of them looked through the grass, and Miroku looked over at Kagome. Kagome took a big breath and faced Miroku. He walked over to Kagome and flicked a bug off of her shoulder, "You had a bug on your shoulder, I flicked it off." he explained. Kagome was breathing really hard as Miroku looked around, "It's getting dark, you better go home soon." he said again. Miroku walked off, leaving Kagome relieved.

Meanwhile, InuYasha was sitting on his motorcycle, watching the two of them from far away. Kagome took a big breath, and jumped up, "Miroku!" Miroku turned around.

"My name is-"

"Kagome" inturrupted Miroku.

Kagome nodded and smiled, "Bye bye".

Miroku smiled back, "Bye bye".

Kagome mentally screamed inside of her head, "He knows my name!". Kagome was walking to where her mom was working, to pick her up, as always, "He knew my name!". Her cellphone started ringing, so she picked up the phone.

"Hello?"

"Hello, Kagome? Did you find the letter?" asked Sango

Kagome gasped, "No! I didn't! I completly forgot about it because I saw Miroku and we talked a little bit!"

"No? Don't worry, we can look for it tomorrow though. Good job on talking to Miroku though. Ok? Bye bye!"

Kagome closed the phone and took a deep breath, "God, please blow the letter all the way to the United States!...But if I hadn't went back for the letter, I wouldn't have had a chance to talk to Miroku!" she said as she rubbed her hands together. She walked inside the resturaunt where her mom worked, "Boss lady!" she exclaimed. "You're here Kagome!" answered the lady. "I'm here to pick up my mom!" continued Kagome as she faced the lady with a smile. "Oh, your mom went out to deliver food to the company around the corner. I told her she could go straight home after the delivery." the boss lady told Kagome. "I will go look for her then, thank you!" said Kagome as she turned around to leave. "Your mom seems more depressed lately, please be more aware of her,"the boss lady said. Kagome looked down to the floor and faced her with another smile, "I got it, Bye bye.".

Meanwhile, Kagome's mom was walking on a bridge with 2 paper sacks towards the company next door. She looked up into the sky, tripped, and fell down the stairs.

BUMP BUMP BUMP BUMP BUMP!

Just in time, Kagome saw her mom fall down the stairs and rushed to go help her stand up. "Mom!" she yelled. "Ow, that hurt!" complained Kagome's mom. "Are you okay?" asked Kagome. "It hurts so much!" said her mom as she blew on her wound in her hand.

At Home..

"Ouch!"

"Stay still mom!"

"But it hurts!"

"I know it hurts! Stay still so I can put a bandage on!"

"Okay okay, but use this," her mother said as she took out a bandage that had pink bunnies on it. Kagome looked at her mother strangely as her mother smiled. Kagome sighed, "Fine," she put on the bandage,"Why aren't you more careful? Is there anything on your mind?". Her mom looked down, while Kagome stared at her, "No?" she asked, "Boss lady said you are often dazed at work recently,". Kagome's mom took a deep breath and looked at Kagome, "I..." she stopped and looked back down. "Did we promise each other not to keep secrets?" asked Kagome as she stared at her mother with suspicion. Silence came over the two of them and Kagome suddenly stood up, "Lets go!" she exclaimed as she dragged her mom outside. "Where!" her mother questioned.

The both of them stopped at a playground and they sat on the swings. "I remember when dad first passed away, we were broke. And we couldn't even pay for my field trip. At that time there was a stealing incident and they all blamed it on me, even if they didn't have proof. They still blamed it on me, so they started picjing on me. They either tore apart my home, or threw my backpack into the trashcan." said Kagome. "But at that time, you didn't tell me anything, because you didn't want me to worry. Instead, you skipped school to come here. When I finally found yuo, you still didn't tell me." said Kagome's mom. "And I remembered you told me: Kagome, no matter what happens, I wish there would be no secrets between us," said Kagome's mom. "So, tell me your secret!" said Kagome. Her mom looked at the floor, "I...I fell in love witth someone." she declared. Kagome's eyes widened, "What?...Your secret is that you fell in love with someone!" Kagome exclaimed. "But I lied to you, and secretly went out with somebody," her mother said. Kagome gasped, "I never thought you were dating!" she exclaimed with fury. Her mom put her hands in front of her mouth, "I will never see him again! Tha guy has a wife!". Kagome said, " Or are you the thrid person who interferred with their marriage!". "He's divorced!" explained her mother.

Kagome slowly shook her head, "Are you sure? How did you guys meet!How long have you been together!" she yelled. Her mother sighed, "When he ...came to...our restuaunt,"

Flashback..

Kagome's mom was cleaning the tables, and had alot of dishes in her hands. But then her elbow knocked a man into his plate of beans and chopped steak. Kagome's mom gasped and closed her mouth. Then, as she refilled his cup of green tea, she accidently dumped all of it on him. Kagome's mom gasped and closed her mouth, once again. And then, as he left to resturaunt, she bowed down, "Thank you for coming!" and as she looked up, saw that he left his wallet on the table. "Mister!" she yelled, as she grabbed his shirt, but then accidently ripped it. "Your wallet!" her mom softly said. Then as she ran off, she tipped and almost fell on floor, when the man picked her up and twirled her around to keep her from falling.

End of Flashback...

Kagome's mom blushed, as Kagome slowly got closer to her mother's face, "What is it that I see on your face!" she said. "What!" her mom asked in concern as she touched her face. "After dad passed away, I haven't seen that expression in a long time," Kagome said. Her mother looked down, "I'm sorry," she said. "You should have gotten a good man for yourself already!" exclaimed Kagome. Her mother looked up, "Are you really not mad? You're not against it?" she carefully asked. "If that guy is good as you said, I will back you up 100 percent!" Kagome said to her mother proudly. Her mom smiled and jumped up. "YAY!" she said as she did a weird little dance. "Then...what now? Can I go out tonight?" Kagome's mom asked. "If I said no..." said Kagome. Her mom's eyes widened as Kagome continued, "Wouldn't I be a bad daughter!". Both of them screamed and hugged each other.

Thats all for now! Stay tuned!
