Chapter 18

Finally I was done working on Kagome's car. I had spent 3 hours straight fixing it up. Since I was done, I was in the car driving it down to Kagome's house. Once there, I pulled up in the driveway and got out. As I was debating whether or not to knock on her door and tell her about her, I heard a loud smashing sound from inside her house.

"Don't you talk back like that!"

A voice roared from inside the house. I looked up to the second story and noticed the room that the sound was coming out of had its window open. The voices continued to talk to eachother, but nothing coherent came out to me. Another smashing sound came from the room, making me jump.

"Where are you…"

I didn't hear the rest so I figured they had left the room. Since the yelling and smashing sounds were sort of freaking me out, I headed up to the porch and knocked loudly on the front door. I could hear the yelling stop immediately. Footsteps calmly came to the door and then it opened.

"Hello?"

A tall man with dark hair and glasses answered the door. I figured it was Kagome's father.

"Uh, hi there. Is Kagome home? I'd like to speak to her for a minute."

He stared at me for a minute, then walked outside, closing the door tightly behind him.

"What do you need to speak to her for?"

"I, uh, I fixed her car. I'm just dropping it off for her."

I pointed to the newly fixed car then faced him again.

"I wasn't aware her car was broken."

"It's engine just died…"

"I see."

"So…"

To tell you the truth, the guy was starting to scare me with all his intensity.

"About Kagome…?"

"Kagome isn't able to come to the door. I'll tell her about the car."

And then he stepped back inside and closed the door. I stood there, sort of shocked, for a bit. Shaking out of it I turned and began walking to the bus stop, glancing back every once and a while to see if I could spot the person who was crying loudly from inside.
