"Kagome!"
"'Gome!"
She barely has time to let Sesshoumaru go, and Rin and Shippou slam into her legs, happy faces smiling up at her.
"I am." After hugging them both, she nods to Shippou. "What's that?"
He's clutching a white piece of paper in his hand.
A bit shyly, he hands it to her. "I drew a house."
"Did you?" She smiles and unfolds the paper. And then, her heart catches in her throat.
There's the house with both children on the porch.
Her.
Sesshoumaru.
Jaken.
A stable for A-Un.
"Shippou…" She looks up.
Shippou's smiling, holding onto Sesshoumaru's sleeve.
