As Kouga and Kagome strolled through the bustling marketplace, their senses were overwhelmed by the sights, sounds, and smells of the festival. Colorful banners fluttered in the warm breeze, while the enticing aroma of grilled meats and sweet treats wafted through the air.

Kagome's eyes sparkled with curiosity as she browsed the various stalls, her attention captured by the intricate crafts and exotic wares on display. She paused in front of a jewelry vendor, admiring the delicate necklaces and shimmering bracelets arranged on velvet cushions.

"Kouga, look at these," Kagome exclaimed, gesturing towards a display of beaded necklaces adorned with polished gemstones. "They're so beautiful."

Kouga glanced over, his gaze lingering on the glittering jewels. "They are," he agreed, a thoughtful expression crossing his face.

As Kagome continued to browse, Kouga discreetly slipped away from her side, his eyes fixed on a particular necklace that caught his attention. It was a simple yet elegant piece, featuring a silver chain adorned with a single turquoise gemstone.

After exchanging a few words with the vendor, Kouga made his purchase, a small smile playing on his lips as he tucked the necklace away safely. He knew it would make the perfect gift for Kagome, a token of his affection and appreciation for everything she meant to him.

Rejoining Kagome, Kouga feigned nonchalance as they continued their exploration of the marketplace. He couldn't wait to see the look of surprise and delight on her face when he presented her with the gift later on.
