Chapter 4(I Know More Than You Think)

Kagome waved at the customers as she made her way to the counter. Sango had come in an hour before she had and needed a break.

"Thanks for clocking me out the other night."Kagome said as she put on her apron.

"Oh no problem...how did the class go?"Sango said. Kagome quickly gave Sango the death stare.

"Your not seriously asking that?..."Kagome said with a smile.

"...No better huh?"Sango said taking the hint from Kagome's previous expression.

"Well...it was a bitter/sweet situation actually"Kagome said as she thought about it. Sango watched as Kagome went off into one of her day dreams.

"Uh Kagome?...you want to explain..."Sango said waving her hand in front of Kagome's face.

"Oh...yeah right...well I fell asleep...again."Kagome said with shame.

"Yeah well what did you expect?...every time I see you your busy...you never take any time for yourself...your always helping someone else...its finally catching up with you."Sango said with conviction.

"Yeah I guess your right..."Kagome said knowing she was right.

"So I take it that was the bitter part?"Sango said trying to hurry the conversation along. She could see a group of people about to come through the door.

"I got a tutor"Kagome said.

"You got a tutor...um...is there something I'm missing here?"Sango said seeing nothing sweet about having a tutor.

"I think I may have a little crush on him..."Kagome said blushing realizing what she had just said.

"Well is he cute?"Sango said with excitement.

Kagome shrugged her shoulders with ignorance "I've never seen him".

"So how then is this guy your tutor?...you've never seen him...but you think you like him."Sango said expressing her confusion.

"He tutors me through instant messaging."Kagome said trying to clear things up. The customers had finally reached the the counter. Once Sango realized who the customer's where she quickly passed them off to Kagome.

"I'm going to take my break now if that's ok with you"Sango said in a bit of a rush.

"Yeah that's fine"Kagome said noticing how quickly she slipped out the back.

"Can I help you?"Kagome said to one of the gentleman.

"So you must be her best friend she talks about all the time"One of the men said.

"And she's pretty too"the other man added.

"Um...its rude to talk about someone when they are standing right here..?"Kagome said feeling left out of their conversation.

"I'm Miroku"he said. "And this is Kouga"he added. Miroku surveyed the room but could not find the one he was looking for.

"So do you want to order something or are you just going to stand there?"Kagome said.

"Well...isn't there another girl who works here?"Miroku said. "I thought she was just back here a minute ago"he added.

"So that's why you were in such a rush..."Kagome said under her breath.

"She's not here anymore...she's gone"Kagome said trying to cover for her.

"Well do you think you can tell her I came bye?"he said hoping Kagome would agree.

"Yeah sure."Kagome said becoming annoyed. Satisfied Miroku took a step back but Kouga remained at the counter.

"I thought you were leaving..."Kagome said placing her hands on her hips.

"Your even cuter when you upset..."Kouga said as a grin spread across his face.

"Do you want something?...I have other customers"Kagome said now running out of things to say.

"Yes...your number..."Kouga said.

"Sorry I don't know you...so I can't give you my number...but you can give me yours"Kagome said with a guilty smile.

"Ok"Kouga said with enthusiasim. He grabbed a napkin and scribbled down his number.

"Thanks...now will you leave?"Kagome asked.

"Yeah...we'll leave...and don't forget to tell her we stopped by to see her...you know the other girl"Miroku said as he pulled Kouga out the front door. As soon as the two vanished around the corner Kagome too Kouga's number and trashed it.

"Two idiots..."Kagome thought to herself.

"Ok...Come on out Sango there gone."she said as she watched Sango reappear from the back room.

"Where did you pick those two up"Kagome said with a laugh.

"ha..ha.."Sango said. "One day they just walked in...and the monkish looking one seems to be stuck on me"Sango said with a smile.

"Is that happiness I see?...a smile?"Kagome said teasing.

"So...you didn't think I saw..but that other one was after you"Sango said making a point.

"Hey!...I already told you...I like my tutor..."Kagome said folding her arms.

"Mystery man...does he plan on meeting you in person...like ever?"Sango said.

"I don't know"Kagome said back thinking her question was kind of strange.

"I'm just saying that because its good to put a face with someone like that...I know I don't want to talk to someone that I can't put a face with that's creepy"Sango said making herself shiver.

"If I were you I would be worried about those two who came in here tonight...I don't think that Kouga guy is all here..."Kagome said with a laugh.

Kagome and Sango went on all night about Kouga and Miroku. Kagome could tell that there was something going on between Sango and Miroku but she couldn't quite put her finger on it. After getting off work she headed home.

"Are you hungry Sota?"Kagome asked as she walked through the front door.

"Let's order pizza"Kagome said.

After becoming very full off of pizza a very lazy and tired Kagome put Sota to bed.

"I hope you sleep all the way throught the night tonight"Kagome said as she rubbed his head.

"It's getting a little easier"Sota admitted.

"Good...soon you won't have those dreams anymore and everything will be back to normal". Kagome just realized what she had said. Normal. Nothing was going back to normal. For that to happen her Mother would have to be alive again.

"I miss her"Sota said.

"So do I"Kagome added.

"Try and get some sleep ok?"she said as she left his room.

She turned on her computer and signed on.

"Hey"-littleshineyjewel

"Back again..."-Doggydog

"You are my tutor right..."-littleshineyjewel

"That I am...what can I do you for tonight?"-Doggydog

"What else?...I need help"littleshineyjewel

"You didn't even have class today...is it the same stuff from before?"-Doggydog.

"How does he know when I have class or not?"-Kagome thought to herself.

"At a lost for words again are we?"-Doggydog.

"How do you know...know...EVERYTHING!"-littleshineyjewel. Kagome said out of frustration. It seemed she could not put anything past this tutor of her's.

"There's a lot I know about you Kagome"-Doggydog.
