Chapter 6: Tea?

Disclaimer: I do not own InuYasha or any of the characters. I just enjoyed the series. Any reference to places or organizations are just for reference since I do not own or belong to such...

A/N1: I am not following the cannon at all, this story is just from my imagination. All characters are normal human beings. I follow other stories in Fanfiction and if I may, I would like to recommend one of them is called I am With You.

It was Saturday, Kagome was at the shop with her mom doing inventory. A week ago was the Takahashi "embarrasement" as Kagome refered to it when she told Sango about it. She called it the embarrasement because she felt how her mother was trying to get her with InuYasha but later found out that maybe he is married or with a girlfriend.

InuYasha walked in the boutique with a small wooden box.

Welcome to...Jewel? InuYasha?

Oh, hi Kagome, is your mother here?

Right here dear, how can we help you?

Well, my mother asked if I could bring this for you. - the box contained a very beautifully embroidred bag.

Thank you so much. Please tell her thank you for me. Kagome, please bring a cup of tea for InuYasha or something

Oh no, no need Hugarashi-san, I just came to drop that off.

Ok, well thank you InuYasha, please let us know if ther anything we can help you with. - Midoriko went back to the little back room

Have a great day Hugarashi-san - InuYasha said as he bowed

Kagome?

Yes, InuYasha?

I got to go but I was wondering, at what time are you usually here? My mother would like to come.

The shop opens Monday to Friday from 9am to 10pm and on Saturdays from 9am to 9pm

Wow, so you are here all that time? I thought you go to school...

Oh, well I am here Monday to Friday from 3:30 to close time and Satudays I am here from noon until it closes but that will change after the holiday season. But since I am off from school this and next week on Saturday I will be here all day.

Oh, ok. Thank you, have a good day. - InuYasha walked away making a mental note of the information provided.

So, what did Takahashi-san sent you mom?

Midoriko gave Kagome the box - Mom, she sent you...tea?

Not just any tea Kagome, imported Japanese jazmin tea from my town...it is the best and to me it has a special meaning.

Izayoi called to find out how Midoriko liked the tea, both women became fast friends.

Sango came by to visit the shop at almost closing time.

Hello ladies!

Sango dear!

Hugarashi-san! - Sango greeted mom Hugarashi

Hey Sango!

Kagome, I got to talk to you...

Oook, I am cleaning up the shop, do you want to tag along so we can talk?

Ok

Both girls walked to the side of the shop that Kagome was cleaning and organizing

Sooo, what is going on?

Oh Kagome, you wont believe it!

Did Miroku proposed?

Nah, I got the job at Cedar's!

Oh my God Sango! That is awesome! - both girls hugged and were jumping up and down in hapiness.

That must mean good news you two girls bouncing like that.

Oh Mom, Sango got the job at Cedar's Sinai.

Oh dear! that is excellent news! We must celebrate and I know what tea we will drink to celebrate I will be right back.

Tea? Kagome, I was hoping she would say sake, not tea.

InuYasha's mom sent her a very rare tea, my mom said it is special. Don't worry, I'm taking you to celebrate this.
