the lost Higurashi

chapter 6

Kagome's POV

Itachi rented a small building where we would have the memorial service for dad. Surprisingly many came to offer their condolences even the Hokage and his son Asuma I think was his name. Everyone who knew my father came to me asking "where is your mother?" I replied to every single one "she at home taking care of my baby brother" and smiled as if no had died.even though I was breaking, I feel so tired of acting and the women in the back gossiping about everything. This is a funeral not a pub. I could hear them in the back gossiping "you see that she smiling at her father's funeral!" One of them exclaimed "I always knew there was something wrong with that girl." The other scoff "I should tell my children to not be around that girl. I mean really if she's smiling at her father's funeral who knows what she will do to my kids!" The other gossip. I looked back and saw the women's were from the Uchiha clan "I am so glad Fugaku-sama kick that child out of their house who knows what thoughts that girl put in little Sasuke or the heir Itachi!" One exclaimed then they all nodded their head in agreement. I turned around and stared at the ground and ignored them. "You know ladies we came here to respect the dead. Not gossip on idiotic things." I frozed and turned around and saw Kakashi glaring at them they just huffed at ignored him. Then Itachi walked towards them "you should keep your mouth shut with the exception of apologizing to Kagome. This is not a place where you can do your petty gossip. I would have expected the women of the Uchiha clan be more formal in these situations." itachi says with a glare, then I looked away hoping they didn't notice me paying attention to their conversation. Then I saw the casket I walked slowly to the deathbed they had put my father in. I dreaded every step, as I got closer to the casket tears welled in the back of my eyes, when I got to the casket my eyes went immediately to his face. I was silent only looking at his face I touched his face softly "daddy" my voice cracks. "Daddy don't go...you still haven't given me that father daughter dance I'm supposed to have on my wedding" tears slowly fall down my face "you still haven't walked me down the Isle....or threaten my first boyfriend...which I don't have. And how am I going to help Sota when he starts shaving? I don't know I thing about that, how am I going to teach him how to walk like a man and treat a woman or girl with respect when he doesn't have someone to be his idol, his role model......his hero.......his f-father." My hand moves to his heart "daddy don't go because I'll miss you." My eyes filled with such tears that I couldn't even see his face. "Daddy if you go. Who's going to protect us? Who's going to guide us? Who's going to tell me when I'm scared everything is going to be alright.....Daddy if you go.... who's going to help take care of us momma? What's going to happen to our family? now that you're gone?" I asked tears furiously falling "come back...please come back...pl....ease." I choked up. My hand gripping the shirt he's wearing. I stayed their for a few minutes sobbing silently. When someone grabbed my hand when I looked to the person I saw it was Shikamaru in a suit from what I'm guessing his mother made him wear. "c'mon" he said softly, I nodded my head and let him lead me, I couldn't see anyways because of the tears that pooled in my eyes. He led out side and took me to a plain area where there was a only one tree and it was huge. He sat down pulling me onto his lap and took out a napkin and wipe the tears that where on my face "what a drag.... you know you don't have to be alone when you're sad" he says leaning back on the tree I nodded. He stared at me and sighed "you know you are much more pretty when you smile.....and I mean a real smile. Not the ones you gave to the people in the memorial service." Shikamaru says while rubbing my back softly "how can I smile when my father's in that place de.....ad." I choked up again at the thought of it. I hugged Shikamaru my head on his shoulder. And breathed a sigh of relief, at the thought that I'm not alone.

Kagome walked to her house once she finished her crying session with Shikamaru. "Wahhhh wahhh" a baby cried out, once Kagome notice it was coming from her house she ran quickly to her house and opened the door. She ran to where her brother was which was in her parents room. She opened the door quickly and found her little brother alone, her mother wasn't in sight. She picked up her brother carefully, she breathe in and scrunched her nose in disgust. She sighed an put him on the bed and changed his diaper. Then got some milk and mixed it with the formula and fed him.
