Chapter 78: Good life


Kagome was silent while she put away all her groceries. ~Why does this hurt so much?~ She took her time, placing each object where it belonged. It was the last thing she wanted to do, she wouldn't have prefer to just drop the bags in the kitchen and go to her bed and cry for the next few hours. ~But, what good would that do? What would that accomplish? Nothing.~ How many times had she cried over Inuyasha and his dedication to Kikyo? How many time had men made her feel second best? Far too many! Maybe this was fates way of telling her that she wasn't ready for love. Maybe that is why the well closed, keeping her trapped in the present. Maybe thats why all these men were jerks.

Once the groceries were put away, she walked to her room, texting. She pulled her yellow backpack from under her bed. The memories.

The phone stayed on her nightstand. The words 'I know you are seeing other women. We are over! Hope you have a good life, Ian.' were written on the screen, already sent, as she went and packed up her backpack.
