The Way You look~

Chambers/Chapter 7

As the week ended, my time with the enigmatic Lord Sesshomaru ended. With a heavy heart, I returned to the familiar confines of the village. As I approached, my friends warmly embraced me and inquired. "Kagome, he didn't hurt you or anything?" Sango asked anxiously.

Before I could respond, my mind wandered back to the passionate nights we had shared, the memories of our intimate moments still fresh in my heart. I blushed deeply, my face betraying the emotions I was trying to conceal.

"No, he didn't hurt me," I replied softly. Sango let out a sigh of relief, her tense shoulders relaxing.

Sango stood with a look of mingled concern and desperation on her face. Her twin babies, wrapped snugly in blankets, began to wail loudly from a distance away. "Why don't I help you, Sango?" Kagome offered with a caring smile.

Sango nodded gratefully, her heart filled with relief and a hint of sadness. "Thank you, Kagome. Miroku has been busy helping other villages with Inuyasha."

The mention of Inuyasha's name sent a sharp pang through Kagome's heart. The memories of their tumultuous relationship flooded her mind—the heartbreak, the endless arguments, and the constant pain of Inuyasha's unwavering love for his long-lost lover, Kikyo. A wave of gloom washed over Kagome's face, casting a shadow on her usually cheerful demeanor.

"Kagome?" Sango's concerned voice broke through the fog of Kagome's thoughts. "Are you alright?"

Kagome shook her head, forcing a smile. "Sorry, let's go," she said, taking a deep breath to compose herself.

Together, they made their way toward the source of the babies' cries. As they approached, Kagome couldn't help but feel empathy for Sango. She knew what it was like to have a broken heart, and she admired Sango's strength and resilience in raising her children alone while Miroku was away.

During their journey, Kagome couldn't shake the feeling that her heart was torn apart. On one hand, she longed for Inuyasha's love and presence, but on the other, she longed for Sesshomaru's love and presence. It was a constant battle within her, and she often felt lost and alone.

As they reached the babies, Kagome helped Sango soothe and feed them. Despite her inner turmoil, Kagome found solace in the simple act of caring for the innocent children. The warmth of their tiny bodies and their contented gurgles brought her a sense of peace and tranquility.

As the days turned into weeks, Kagome's inner turmoil intensified. The weight of her indecision pressed heavily upon her, causing her mind to unravel at the seams. She sought solace in the tranquility of the moonlit nights, wandering through the ancient forests surrounding her village. The gentle caress of the night breeze and the silvery glow of the celestial bodies offered a brief respite from the chaos within her soul.

During her nocturnal strolls, Kagome encountered a wise and mysterious figure, the Dreamweaver. With ethereal eyes that seemed to pierce through her very being, the Dreamweaver listened intently to Kagome's heartfelt confessions. Understanding the depth of her anguish, the Dreamweaver guided Kagome on a journey of self-discovery, helping her to confront her inner demons and find clarity amidst the confusion.

Through a series of vivid dreams and reflective conversations, Kagome began to unravel the complexities of her emotions. She realized her love for Sesshomaru stemmed from his strength, dignity, and unwavering loyalty. His composed demeanor and unwavering resolve provided a sense of security that Kagome yearned for.

As the sun rose, casting its golden rays across the tranquil village, Kagome embarked on a journey to share her innermost feelings with her closest friend, Sango. With each step, her heart echoed with anticipation and trepidation.
