Chapter 6: I'm Sorry

"Here you go, Mrs. Wolf! Your cute, baby girl!" the nurse said cheerfully, giving the new born infant to Kagome.

What surprised the nurse was that Kagome stared at the infant with emotionless eyes. She didn't bother to even move her arms to carry her daughter.

The nurse looked puzzled. She has known Kagome for a long time and she was even surprised that she didn't marry Inuyasha. Everyone in town considers them as the most loveable couple. When they pass through everyone, you could feel how much they love each other. Everyone was stunned when Kagome decided to marry Kouga and had a child. The nurse thought maybe Kagome must have cheated or something, and be happy that she married a rich man and bear his children.

'So why does she look so sad?' the nurse asked herself.

She cleared her throat, but Kagome didn't move.

"Mrs. Wolf? Your daughter should be breast feed, now," she said.

"You have special milk things for infants in this hospital. Feed her that," Kagome said harshly.

The nurse look taken back. "Mrs. Wolf? This is your daughter and she should at least be held by her mother, neh?"

Kagome shook her head. "That's true. I am her mother. So as her mother I want you to go feed her and don't be coming to me. You can go now."

The nurse shook her head and with the new born in her arms she left the room. As she closed the door, she heard a loud sob. Her eyes softened and looked down at the child.

"It will never be your fault."

Kagome didn't know how long she was going to hold her tears in. She was grateful that the nurse left.

"A daughter," she whispered.

Kagome cried harder.

'A daughter that should have been mine and . . .Inuyasha,' she said to herself, miserably.

When she looked at her daughter, she thought she was seeing herself as an infant. From what she remembered from the pictures her mother showed her, her daughter looked like her.

With the same blue eyes, the few raven hair strands on her head, and the porcelain skin her daughter has when she saw her for the first time. But then again, those features could come from Kouga, too. He does have blue eyes, black hair, and light skin. However, when you look closely at the little girl you can see she held the very same innocence as Kagome.

Kagome wiped her tears away. She felt sick and angry at herself. She had just rejected her own daughter. Since when was she this cruel? But can you blame her for reacting this way?

Kagome immediately straighten up when she heard someone knock on the door.

Before she can even tell the person to fuck off, the door was opened.

And her tears started to fall once again, because she knows she can't hide from this person.

"Kagome," Inuyasha said with concern.

Kagome stayed still. She wanted to run to him and embrace him and tell him the truth, but she knew she couldn't. Not when Kouga is threatening her. She can't risk Inuyasha like that.

And it hurts.

Inuyasha bit his lips. "I-I. . .um. . . ." he didn't even know what to say. He hit himself mentally, asking himself why did he even enter the room?

"Inuyasha," she said in a grim voice. "I think we can't see each other again."

Inuyasha stared at her with teary eyes and nodded. "Besides, you're already married. With Kouga, nonetheless," he spat.

Kagome let out a loud sob. "Maybe you should go. I have to take care of my. . . .my. . .baby," she said as she cried.

Inuyasha did one thing that made Kagome feel even worse.

He ran to her side and kissed on her passionately on the lips.

Kagome sobbed as he kissed her and she wrapped her arms around him. When he pulled away, he rested his forehead on her's.

"I still love you," he whispered against her lips.

Kagome sniffed. "I know," she whispered back.

Inuyasha pulled his forehead away and cupped Kagome's cheek, lightly forcing her to look him in the eye.

"And I know you still love me," he whispered again.

Kagome could only cry more.

Inuyasha got up from the bed and walked to the door. Before turning the knob, he said, "I just wish you didn't give up on me, Kagome."

And walked out.

"CAN YOU SHUT THAT KID UP!" Kouga yelled as he took another gulp of vodka.

Kagome sniffed and wiped away her tears, as she tried to calm their daughter. It's been five months and it was like a living hell.

Kouga rarely shows up at the house and comes back smelling like liquor, sex, and smoke. He doesn't even bother to see his daughter.

It's obvious he doesn't care.

"I TOLD YOU TO SHUT THAT FUCKING KID UP!" he yelled again, this time walking to the crib and started shaking it causing the poor infant to cry louder.

"Kouga! Stop it!" Kagome shouted through the yelling and crying. She pushed him off the crib and looked to see if the baby is alright.

Kouga's eyes held fire in them as he walked back to the crib. This time he grabbed Kagome by the wrist, causing her to whimper, and slapped her on the face. This cause her to fall on the floor.

She didn't cry. She didn't even breathe.

One thought crossed her mind.

'When will this nightmare end?'

"Don't ever fight against me," he said with venom in his voice. He looked back at the crib. The child has stopped crying. "Now keep her mouth shut before I break it."

He walked out the room.

Kagome continued to lay on floor. She heard him grab his keys and walk out the door. She sighed as he took off with the car.

Another thought crossed her mind.

'What now?'

Kagome finally put the baby to sleep and walked out the child's room. She silently walked to the living room that was downstairs and sat down on one of the couches.

She wrapped her arm around herself to help her feel more secure. However, she knew this method will never work because how can she fell secure when she feels so weak?

She hasn't seen her friends at all. Not even her mom. And not even Inuyasha. Noone.

She just lives on the other side of town where the rich people live in. She lives in this empty, cold house with Kouga and her daughter. She lives in a nightmare.

She's not herself anymore. She just to be the strong-willed, courageous person. But now she's nothing, but a scared child.

She didn't know how long she's been sitting on the same spot. The baby is still asleep which is good. But that didn't get her out of her daze.

It was the door opening.

Kouga came in and he wasn't alone. With him there was a woman with red hair in two pony tails. Kagome couldn't see her face due to the fact that it looked like the red head was sucking on Kouga's neck. Kouga was touching her in many places and he didn't even bother to acknowledge her presence. That is until the red head spoke.

"Kouga, baby," she said in an annoying voice. "Who's this chick staring at us?"

'Oh! So she did know I was here,' Kagome thought.

Kouga took one look at Kagome and snorted. "Just one of my maids. Come on. Let's go upstairs where we can have some privacy," he said.

The red head nodded. She took one look at Kagome and scrunched her nose in disgust. "She's so pale and looks like she's about to die," she said as she was being dragged upstairs by Kouga.

Kagome wiped her eyes to stop her tears. She cursed herself because she told herself to stay strong, but now she knows she can't.

And she can't take the suffering anymore.

So she did one thing.

The brunette woman groaned as she heard the door bell ring.

"Who the fuck rings the door bell at 2 o'clock in the fucking morning?" she mumbled as she got out of bed.

She walked groggily to the door and when she opened it, she was stunned who stood before her.

"Kagome?" Sango said in disbelieve.

She hasn't seen her best friend since graduation.

Right there Sango wanted to cry.

Not because she hasn't seen her friend for some time.

She wanted to cry because this doesn't look like her Kagome.

This Kagome looks pale. It's looks like she lost weight. And her blue eyes that once held determination and life was replaced with nothing but dullness.

Sango's eyes softened. "Kagome what happened to you?" she asked softly.

Kagome ignored the question and said, "Sango, I need you to do me a favor."

Sango nodded, vigorously, as she heard her friend shaky voice.

Kagome pulled a baby cart from her side that was blocked by the door. She gently pushed it in her friend's apartment.

Sango's eyes widen as she stared at the child before her.

Kagome placed a few baby bags on the floor. She quickly looked through the bags and pulled out a manilla folder. She grabbed Sango's hand and placed the folder there.

"Kagome?" Sango asked confused.

Kagome breathed out air she didn't know she was holding. She looked at her best friend in the eye. "I need you to please take care of my daughter for me," she said in a wobbly voice.

Sango felt her heart beat rise. "You are coming back, right, Kagome?" she asked, afraid.

Kagome walked out of the door and stood outside. "There's her birth certificate and medical records she has," she said, now close to crying.

Sango's eyes widen and she shook her head. She tried to reach her friend but Kagome jerked away. "Kagome, don't do this," she pleaded.

Kagome looked like she was going to have a panic attack. "I'll come back," she said, but it didn't sound like she meant it.

"Kagome, don't do this," Sango begged again. When she neared her friend, she jerks away. "Kagome!"

Kagome looked at Sango with sad eyes and tears falling down. "I'm sorry, Sango," she whispered and ran.

"Kagome!" Sango yelled as she saw her running down the stairs.

Kagome continued running. "I'll send you money when I can!" she yelled out, bot looking back.

"KAGOME!"

The taxi car pulled up beside her and she quickly went in. As she sat down she wiped her tears off, furiously.

"Where to, miss?" the cab driver asked.

Kagome sighed, weakly. "Take me to the airport, please."

As the cab driver nodded and drove, Kagome placed a hand on her mouth to stop herself from crying.

She looked out the window and saw all the building, houses, and places she's going to miss. The car past through a forest area and in the forest you can see a small cabin house.

Kagome placed a hand on the window.

She had one last thought about this place.

'I'm sorry.'
