Sesshoumaru was sitting cross leg, his eyes close meditating while waiting for the sun goes up. Meditating is his morning ritual since he was a teenager, this way he can clear his thoughts and calm himself.
Just as Sesshoumaru open his eyes Rin enter the room. "Good morning!" she greets. "I'm sorry for barging in, I thought you still asleep, and I guess you are a morning person. Here I brought you some clothes so you can change." Rin handing the clothes she brought.
"Thank you." he said in his calm voice, he don't understand why but he can't help himself talking to her calmly.
"You're welcome." she cheerfully replied. "Do you want to join us for breakfast?" she asked invited him. "It's okay, I will just bring your breakfast here." she said not to force him. "I'll see you later then." with that Rin leave the room and Sesshoumaru continue his meditation.

Rin went to the kitchen and start preparing breakfast for all of them. Just as she finish cooking Yuma enter the kitchen followed by her parents.
"Good morning every body." she greet them and they greet her in return.
"So where's our guest?" Kino asked looking around for their guest. "Yeah where is he?" Yuma and her mother asked.
"He is in his room, I invited him but I think he need more time to adjust in his surrounding so I didn't force him to come." She replied holding a tray in her hand with Sesshoumaru's food. "You go ahead I'll just have to bring this to him." they all nodded and start eating while Rin went back to Sesshoumaru for his breakfast.
When she get to his room, Sesshoumaru already wear the clothes she brought earlier, he was now wearing a black pants and white shirt.
She smiled at him as she enters. "I'm glad the clothes fit on you." she said putting the tray on the floor.
"Where did you get it?" he asked about the clothes.
"That, it's Yuma's father old clothes, he don't wear it anymore so I borrow it for you to wear." "So there are other people live around here?
"Yeah but only few, it is an island anyway and not too many people come around this kind of place." she told him. "Anyway enjoy your breakfast, I'll be back later." Sesshoumaru just nodded to her and Rin went back to the kitchen.
"So how's your patient?" Yuma asked as Rin sit beside her.
"I think he will be fine in a couple of days." she said picking up her chopstick.
"Did my old clothes fit on him?" Kino asked.
"Yeah in fact when I got there he already changes his clothes." she said cheerfully.
"I still some few clothes that I didn't use, so I guess he can borrow it while he's here." he said getting up, followed by his wife.
"Thank you so much for your help." she gratefully said.
"There is no need for you to thank me Rin; in fact he is the one who will be thankful that you take care of him." Kino smiled at her. "I'll be going now, see you ladies later" he said before heading at the door with his wife.
Rin continue eating her breakfast in silent while Yuma look at her intently. "What?" she asked noticing her friend looking at her?
"Nothing, don't mind Me." she said shrugging her shoulder. "What do you plan to do today?"
"I don't know may be cleaning the house." she replied unsure of what to do today. "What about you? Do you have any plans today?"
"I don't know either may be I'll just have to help mom planting some vegetables at the backyard." Yuma sigh. "Unlike you, you will be facing a handsome man once in a while."
"And that means?" she asked as she finishes eating,
"Oh come on Rin, admit it that guy is handsome beyond your imagination." she said dreamily.
"So?" was all she said.
"So? Is that all you can say?" Yuma stared at her incredulously.
"Yeah what else should I say?"
"Can you just say that he is handsome and cute?"
"You know what for an island girl like you, you acting like a city girl, who go crazy if you saw a handsome guy."
"At least I appreciate beauty of a man." she scoffed at her. "What about you? It's seems that you don't see what is in front of you."
"Yeah whatever…" Rin rolled her eyes. "I'm over with that along time ago." she said standing up.
"Where are you going?" she asked looking up at her.
"To the cute "cute" guy as you say." she replied quoting the cute word. Yuma just shook her head and watch her leave. Even they know each other for a year now and she still didn't know her that well, heck she didn't even know her last name or where she came from, but it doesn't matter who she is because Rin have been a good friend of hers.

The day comes fast and it was night time already. The rest of the household is already rest for the night except Sesshoumaru. He was lying in his makeshift bed with his hands behind his head. He let out a sigh and thought back his conversation with Rin this morning.
Flashback:
He was walking at the corridor in the house with a tray in his hand. He stops his pace when he saw Rin blocking his way with her arm cross and quirk her eye brow staring at him.
"And where are you going?" she asked
"To the kitchen." he replied showing her the tray in his hand.
Rin uncross her arms and take the tray. "You should have rest you know."
"I can move just fine…" Sesshoumaru put a hand near his ribs as he wince in pain. Rin let go of the tray and immediately at his side. "Yeah, you are fine alright." she said sarcastically and led him back to his room.
"So don't move too much ok, if you want to heal fast that is." she told him. "I'll see later."
"Wait." Rin turn around. "Yes?"
"How long would I be stuck here?" he asked straight to the point, knowing that he is stranded.
"A month if no one could find you and rescue you." she replied honestly. "I'm sorry if you gonna be stuck here for that long, it just that only twice a month that a boat will visit this island. As you know that it is in the middle of nowhere and not too many people come around here."
Sesshoumaru absorb the news calmly and he is not surprise that he is gonna stay here that long, in fact he don't mind staying that long and he is now confuse why he feel that way.
"Hey don't worry about it; we don't mind you staying here for that long." Rin said giving him a smile. "While you are here I'll make sure to keep you company. So just enjoy your stay and feel at home." she said cheerfully. "I'll see you later then." giving him a pleasant smile. For the rest of the day her smile plagues his mind.
End Flashback:
Sesshoumaru sigh again for he never met anyone like her who always smile all the time and for that he was quiet intrigue about her. 'There is no use pondering about her.' he thought closing his eyes to sleep as her smile still in his mind.
