Kumiko – 17

Chapter 9:

Mrs Lee and Mrs H were currently sitting in the kitchen both sipping their tea and discussing things like mothers do.

"Imagine the grandchildren"

"I love grandchildren, although I currently don't have any"

"Oh we could change that"

"So you're thinking what I'm thinking?"

"If it involves Kumiko and Souta then yes"

"It's obvious they like each other a lot"

"Yes but Souta says Kumiko isn't very open"

"She isn't"

"That doesn't matter my family is good at making people opening up, my daughter married the most stubborn man I know, and now he is as soft as a puppy"

"Ma"

"Who's that little guy?"

"Oh that's my daughter's son, my grandchild"

"Oh he's gorgeous"

"Oh there he is"

"Souta you were supposed to be watching him"

"Sorry Mama"

Kumiko then walked in and Mrs H handed her Yoshi who instantly lay his head down onto Kumiko's shoulder and started to fall asleep.

"Aaawww that's adorable who knew Kumiko had such a way with kids"

"So Kumiko are you planning on having kids?"

"Um…"

"Come on Kumiko we got some more studying to do"

"What about Yoshi?"

"Err…we better put him to bed"

Kumiko and Souta left the kitchen and started to head up stairs to the spare room where Yoshi was sleeping. Souta was looking at Kumiko out of the corner of his eye, some how finding her even more attractive when she had the mother image. He saw that she wanted to be a mother by the way she was smiling at the sleeping toddler in her arms.

When they entered the room Kumiko placed Yoshi in his crib and tucked him in. She then stood there with her hands on the side of the crib, her head at an angle with a small smile on her lips admiring the toddler who was fast asleep. Souta saw this and at this moment she looked at peace with the world, there was no pain, or sorrow in her eyes, just love and happiness. He walked up to her and put his arms around her waist and rested his chin on her shoulder. She was so cooped up in her own world she hardly noticed, well she noticed but she wasn't really thinking, she responded by leaning back into the well built chest and let a small sigh escape.

Of course all good things must come to an end and of course who better to end it than InuYasha.

"Souta I hope you aren't planning on stealing Yoshi?"

Both Kumiko and Souta realized how they were and quickly jumped apart their faces getting redder every second. Kumiko looked to who was talking and saw a tall young, well built man with long black hair in a low ponytail and a smirk on his face who had his arm around a young woman with long flowing black hair and they were both wearing formal wear.

"InuYasha why would you think I'd do a thing like that?"

"Well you two were standing there like proud parents."

"Who's your lady friend Souta?"

"Oh this is Kumiko, Kumiko the woman is my older sister, Kagome and the man next to her is her husband InuYasha, they're Yoshi's parents"

"Nice to meet you InuYasha and Kagome"

"It's nice to meet you too Kumiko, you must be the first girl my brother has brought home"

"She's here because I had agreed to tutor her and I had to baby sit Yoshi"

"Cute baby by the way"

"He's even cuter in the day time"

"It's getting late I better go home, thanks for the help Souta, see you at school"

After Kumiko had left Kagome and InuYasha stared at Souta.

"What!"

"Oh Souta you found someone to love, and you both want to be parents too"

"So you gonna ask her to be your mate?"

"No, we're human not demon"
