During the next week of school, Kagome found out that Eri and Yuka had a great Saturday night with Ginta and Hakkaku. She also found out that they became the guys mates. When Kagome found this out she was really a static, because now there were two more children/pups coming into the world and their big happy family/circle of friends.
When Kagome arrived home from school that late afternoon, she told Inu Yasha, Miroku and Sango the great news about the new lists couple/husband-and-wife hooking up and having a family together. Mrs. Higurashi was listening to this conversation as she was preparing the supper for the little group of friend/family members, when she took a glance at the calendar and noticed that in the next few weeks Kagome and Sango are supposed to go into labor. Knowing this she made a mental note to take Miroku a side to warn him about some of the things that Sango will be going through when she can labor and the ways that her instincts will tell her how to deal with the pain and suffering but she's going through.
Once supper was served, ate and everything from the meal was cleaned up and put away, Mrs. Higurashi took Miroku to guest room. Once they were in the room and the door was closed, Mrs. Higurashi explained/warned to Miroku, that's Sango was about going to labor in just a few weeks and for her this was going to be the most painful experience of her life. She explained that late that he could help make her have less pain and show her that he really did love her as much as he told her, by being with her through the whole ordeal. Mrs. Higurashi explained that one of the instincts that Sango is going to have to elevate the pain, is to scream and shout out curses and verbal insults to him, about the predicament that she is in and how he put her their and she wouldn't go through it again for the world, etc. Mrs. Higurashi told Miroku that Sango would not mean any of the cursing and insults that she will say to him, so don't feel hurt or obligated to do what she says while she's in labor, she's just trying to reduce the pain on her by directing the anger towards the person that is very close to her heart.
Both Mrs. Higurashi and Miroku knew that there was a certain guardian angel watch over Inu Yasha and Kagome, they knew that the guardian angel is going to come down and informing Inu Yasha about this subject. Inu Yasha and Kagome are sitting in the god tree watching the stars on this very beautiful and clear night, when they see this bright and brilliant flash of light in the sky. They look down and to Inu Yasha's surprise it his mother's spirit Izayoi, she knows who her son's mate is and is very happy for him to have found some one to love him for who he is not for who he could become. Izayoi explains that she has been her son's guardian angel and Kagome's guardian angel as well, and she also explains what Mrs. Higurashi has just finished explaining to Miroku about when a female goes into labor.
Around eight O'clock in the evening Inu Yasha and Kagome came into house, once in Kagome took her mother aside, because she needed to get some advice from her. Kagome wanted to know why Inu Yasha was being so protective of her, ever since the day that she found out that she was pregnant from him. She felt that Inu Yasha through that she was a glass doll and if anything were happened to her, she would break into a million pieces. This was annoying her because she knew that she would never break into a million pieces and she was not like a glass doll, she was just pregnant with their first pup\child.
Mrs. Higurashi knew why Inu Yasha was treating her daughter this way and she knew that she had to shed some light on this situation for Kagome own good. So she explained to Kagome, that Inu Yasha's behavior was not him trying to be a jerk, but it was his instincts taking over. All demons and half-demons have certain predetermined instinct; decade can to tell them how to survive, find and take a mate and how to protect their mate and offspring. The instinct Inu Yasha has been displaying for the filling length of your pregnancy was the last one, this instinct was telling him to protect his mate and the expected offspring for time being until the ordeal was over with.
After Mrs. Higurashi was done her explanation of why Inu Yasha was acting in such a manner, she saw the look of enlightenment on her daughter's face. Knowing this Kagome knew that this thing that Inu Yasha was doing was not him being his old self but him following his set programming that he could not ignore. At this time it was 10 O'clock at night and it was time for Kagome to go to bed and get some rest, so Inu Yasha was looking for her. Kagome looked down to her watch "3, 2, 1" and Inu Yasha appeared behind her. He picked her up bridal style and carried up the stairs, push the door open to her room (which he left open ajar to keep most of the heat in the room for) and laid her in the their bed and tucked her in their room for the night.
