Chapter 5: The Plan

It's been 2 weeks since the confrontation...

Sakura still had Dinner with the Following Night...

-Flashback-

Sakura was still torn up about everything she heard between her parents, it took Sakura a couple of Days to get her mom off her feet. As she got ready to have dinner with her Dad, Sakura curled the ends of her hair and clipped a bow into her hair. She was wearing skinny jeans with a figure forming shirt and flats. Sakura grabbed her Jacket and left the room.

She met her dad at Moonlight Path for dinner. She sat down at the table her father had reserved. Once she got comfortable, Sakura started looking at the menu, until her Dad arrived. Once she smelled him come in the door. She glanced up smiled slightly, stood up and gave her Father a hug. Once he sat down, she got a good look at him.

Her Father looked awful... He had red eyes; he dressed messy, and had black bags under his eyes.

Once they ordered, Sakura decided to talk, the silence was bothering her. "So, Dad... Um, what's going on?" Sakura flinched at how hoarse his voice was, "I could be better sweetie. There's something I need to tell you. I am so sorry; I have failed you in every way possible. I am a sorry excuse of a father, I didn't even remember Zac, and you have talked to me about him before. I made the mistake a month ago to ask your mother for a divorce... Now. I screwed up again, and she wants to finalize the divorce. If there was anyway, to stop her and get her to forgive me, I would. I love your mother so much. She means the world to me. I love you too. I just messed up, and this time she's done. She deserves someone better." Sakura could sense the pain in her father's heart.

"Dad, I love you too. And I'm pretty sure that mom will always love you. Look, I'll talk to mom, and see what I can do. I'll let you know, but you need to straighten what's going back home..."

Inuyasha smiled at his daughter's optimism, he knew she got it from her mother. "Sweetie, I think it's too late for your mother and me. I'm sure she wants to move on with her life, and I'm not going to stand in her way."

Sakura became furious at once and said, "So, that's it? You're not going to do anything about it? You're just going to let mom go? I thought you loved her! If you truly loved her, you wouldn't let her go. What if she remarries, huh? That would mean that she has another Mans last name. Would you honestly let her just 'move on'?"

"I wouldn't like it at all... But I won't stand in the way of your mother's happiness."

Sakura was disappointed in her father, almost disgusted at what she was hearing. "Well, you know what; I am very disappointed in you... You out of all people, the one person who told me to never give up, because if you truly love it, then it's something worth living for, and fighting for. Dad, if you're giving up already, then don't come to my Party, I moved it to next month. Since everything happened, I decided we all needed a break. I'm leaving, I can't believe you... You're not my father..."

Sakura grabbed her bag and left the table, once she returned to the hotel room, she checked on her mom, and it looked like Kagome had fallen asleep crying again...

-End Flashback-

Sakura was so sad for her mom... And she started thinking... There had to be something she could do!

So, she went to bed, thinking of ways to try and get her parents back together...

-The Following Morning-

Sakura got up, without waking up her mother and ran across the hall and started banging on the door until a very sleepy and grumpy Mika came and opened the door. Once Sakura got in the door, she walked to her aunt and uncle's room to walk them up, rain or shine; they were going to hear her out right now. Once she got to their room, she started jumping on the bed, knowing that was the only way to wake them up, and they were far from pleased to be woken up at 5 in the morning.

Once they all settled down Mika walked into the room, and sat at the edge of her parent's bed, and listened to what Sakura had to say, just like Sango and Miroku.

"I'm sorry to have to wake you up so early, but I had an idea as to how to get my mom and dad back together… and its fail-proof. There's no way it could fail. I know they won't willingly talk to each other, so we need to make them. I have the perfect plan, and I need your help to accomplish it." They all nodded, agreeing to help her no matter what, and Sakura nodded her head and began to explain her to them.

"We all know I moved back my release party a month. Right? So, a week before, Mom should have a concert at the Nokia Theater in NYC. We could bring dad, and have her sing, knowing mom, they'll be about dad, and it works out perfectly because he'll be in the crowd, without her knowing; because I'll give him my bracelet to conceal his scent from her, so she can't possibly back out of the concert or singing the songs to him, unknowingly. But, before that, Uncle Miroku, I need you to go back home and make sure that whatever the center of their problems. Disappears, indefinitely; I Know it has to do with an ex-girlfriend of dad's; I've done my own research. So, make her disappear, or I'll go personally and it won't end well. Aunty Sango, I need you to convince mom to have the concert, tell her some lame excuse like, 'the fans want to see you in concert, or they requested her. I don't know, but figure it out. Leave the rest up to me. That good?"

They were impressed with how much she had planned out. When it came to her family, they knew Sakura didn't play games, and with them so close to the edge, the agreed to help. Miroku nodded and said, "Alright, I'll take the jet tomorrow and figure out what's going on. Meanwhile, Sakura, please be careful."

She nodded her head and added, "I will, and I'll keep an eye on both of them, it's easier for Mom because she has you here Aunt Sango. But, Dad's kind of the lone Dog at the moment, so I'll focus on him for a bit."

Sango nodded her head and said, "Your right, I hope that this works, I have faith in you Sakura. No Matter what they will both still love you every much, and so do we.

Sakura nodded her head, and hugged her Aunt, knowing full well, that there was no way her plan could fail… There was only one person in her way… and she was determined to get her out of their lives, one way for another…..
