When the guilt became too heavy, Kagome finally decided to grace him with words again.

"I'm sorry."

Sesshomaru, who had been ignoring the holes she had been staring into his neck, inflated slightly with curiosity.

"For?"

Kagome built her lip. "I kept bringing up Inuyasha," she said. "But… I don't understand why you hate him. Wanting Tetsusiaga is one thing but trying to kill him…" she looked forlorn. "It's so sad. I don't think I could ever hate my little brother that much… What exactly happened?"

"It's not for you to understand," Sesshomaru dismissed.

Her soft "Okay" nagged at him.
