"What is it mama?"
"Kagome you should not apply for this."
"Why not?"
"Did you not hear what your grandpa told you? There is no such place. This advertisement is fraud."
Kagome looked baffled "But mama this..."
Her mother stopped her. "No Kagome. I will not let you go there. This could be a trap to lure girls. We do not know anything about this. "
Kagome rolled her eyes "Mama I am 24. I can take care of myself."
"I know dear" Her mother said "But I can't take risk. You can find some other jobs for yourself."
"No please this is the only thing I can do. This is the only thing I am good at. Please do not do this to me."
Her mother looked stern "No Kagome. I will not let you go there."
"Just think about our family. We need finanacial help and I am the only able member in the family for it."
Mama Higurashi sighed "I understand your reasons and I respect them but" her mother's gaze was pained "Kagome I do not want anything to happen to you."
"But why would someone try to lure girls in this way?"
Her mother chuckled humourlessly "This world is not as innocent as you are Kagome. Who knows what they do after kidnapping girls."
"Mama no one would do this. Think for a moment if someone wants girls that badly they can simply kidnap them."
"Oh Kagome this could be another trick of them. You do not know people."
Kagome snickered under her breath 'No mama you don't know. If only you had known Naraku, the manipulative bastard...' she thought.
"Please mama let me at least try for it. If I feel something going fishy I promise I will not go."
"No."
"Please mama."
"I have already told you Kagome."
As much she was being denied she was becoming desperate. Why was her mother being so stubborn?
"Mama please I cannot live like this anymore" She practically begged.
"I told you before and telling you again .YOU ARE NOT GOING. Now if you have finished your dinner go to your room." Her mother yelled such that even Buyo hid behind Souta in fear.
She looked at her mother wide eyed. She put down her bowl and left for upstairs without saying anything. They were all watching her go, shoulders slumped in defeat. A stomping of door was heard. There was silence in the dining room.
The breakfast was quiet next morning. Possibly because Kagome was in a foul mood and Kagome's mother was in a fouler mood. Souta kept looking from her mother to her sister but did not say anything. It was not the place for Souta or grandpa to be talking as women population was the force of the Higurashi family, it was better to keep silence to avoid their wrath, especially when Higurashi flare is legendary. Inuyasha had firsthand experience.
After breakfast her mother handed her a bag "Kagome go to the market. I need these for dinner. The list and money is inside the bag" She took the bag silently and got ready to go to the market.
