【Inuyasha】White Moonlight and Vermillion Mole

Carrying two heavy shopping bags, Kagome had exercised her arm strength, so she had the leisure to admire the sacred tree beside her when she passed the steps of her torii gate.

Compared with the sacred tree five hundred years ago, the tree canopy is now more lush and green.

Kagome walked to the sacred tree and stared at a small hole similar to an arrow mark left on the tree. She was lost in thought until her arms were sore and she realized that she had been standing in front of the tree for a long time.

Anyway, she was not hungry, and the meal in the morning did not affect her energy at all. Kagome put the bag aside and climbed over the fence around the sacred tree.

With her palm pressed on the rough bark, Kagome's eyes flashed with subtle thoughts, and her memory seemed to have returned to the same experience in another world at this moment.

The realization of her feelings for Inuyasha was under the sacred tree.

To be precise, the first time she felt that she liked Inuyasha was when she had dinner with Yuka and the others.

She asked herself whether she liked Inuyasha in confusion and hesitation.

Then it was...

Kagome's mouth twitched, "Special seats..."

It was that time when she went home in a huff and didn't want to go there again, but when the negative feelings of doubt, confusion and resentment dissipated, she was replaced by a strong urge to "want to be together, want to see Inuyasha again."

Crying for feelings...

Kagome forced a smile, "Heh."

"Over the past year, I'm still the same me..."

He squatted down slowly, blinked hard twice, and held back the soreness in his eyes.

"Not at all... Under this tree, I will become more and more honest, but I... Why don't I feel honest at all." He muttered softly, and his heart became more and more dull and painful.

He only felt doubts and hesitations from all directions pressing towards him.

Why did he like Kikyo?

When?

He clearly still had feelings for Inuyasha.

So, is he cheating?

Why do he have such feelings?

Such an outrageous... feeling that cannot exist.

Kagome's eyes dimmed. Yes, how could he have feelings for Kikyo?

No.

Kikyo must not know.

The girl who cried in Higurashi's mother's arms under the sacred tree and the boy who was crouching under the sacred tree and was sad now seemed to overlap.

"Ali?" A sudden call came from behind, "You ran into the sacred tree--huh?"

Kagome turned around.

It was mom.

"Mom..."

Higurashi's mother came out to collect the clothes hanging out to dry, and saw Kagome who got into the fence of the sacred tree at a glance. She just asked a question, but stopped the moment Kagome turned her head.

Sadness, annoyance, regret, fear... There were so many emotions in her eyes that Higurashi's mother restrained the smile on her face the first time she saw it.

"Ali, what happened?" She asked worriedly, taking two steps forward.

"Mom." Kagome could no longer control herself. Even though more than a year had passed and she was strong enough, all her psychological preparations fell apart at the words of Higurashi's mother.

He climbed over the fence and ran towards Higurashi's mother, hugged her tightly, and couldn't stop the tears from falling.

"Mom... I seem to have done something wrong, I, I..."

The choked words were intermittent, Higurashi's mother frowned, gently patted Kagome's emotions to comfort her, and listened quietly to him reveal his thoughts bit by bit.

"What should I do, Mom, I did something to let another person down... I'm a bad person... I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

Kagome sobbed, what he didn't dare to face was not only his feelings for Kikyo, but also for Inuyasha.

Escape, he was escaping, these two feelings, despicable, trying to cover up and let them exist without the knowledge of both of them.

"What should I do..." How should he face Inuyasha in another world, the Inuyasha who fought side by side with him and shared his feelings with him.

How can he face the current Kikyo, who is so attentive and gentle to him... and feel lustful.

Just because he has changed his body?

"Wuwu... I don't want to be a man! I don't want to!" Kagome was a little overwhelmed, and she vented her inner pain without thinking.

Higurashi's mother wanted to laugh, but she felt distressed. She stroked Kagome's hair, and her hand paused when she touched the white hairband. This... is not Kagome's style, tying her hair with a ribbon.

Did she bring it back from the other side of the well?

It looks like a woman's hairband.

The thought flashed through her mind.

"Kagome."

Higurashi's mother gently distanced herself from Kagome, looked up at him, and suddenly laughed, "Ah, he has grown so tall in such a short time, it feels like Kagome grew up in a flash~"

The child has grown up, and he also has his own troubles and emotional entanglements.

She saw at a glance the pink color in the bag under the sacred tree.Packaging bags, he actually went out to buy... Well, he is as considerate as his father.

"Gender is not wrong, A Li." Higurashi's mother pulled him to sit on a stone bench beside him, and looked up at the branches of the sacred tree swaying in the wind.

"That's innate, don't complain about it, whether it's a boy or a girl, you are you."

Kagome calmed down, looked up at the sacred tree like Higurashi's mother, pursed her lips, in fact, he was almost accepting whether it was a boy or a girl, but this time... suddenly collapsed.

"Do you... have someone you like over there?"

Higurashi's mother hesitated to ask the guess, and she felt a little sure in her heart.

As expected, Kagome nodded after a moment of silence.

"Then... two?" Higurashi's mother stretched out two fingers.

An arrow pierced Kagome's chest.

Ah... didn't deny it, Higurashi's mother's eyes were erratic, and she covered her mouth, she really just guessed casually.

"... Not really." Kagome lowered her eyes, "Because, the other person... I will never see him again in this life."

Higurashi's mother opened her eyes wide and took a breath, "Is Sengoku so dangerous?!" It's only been a month since Kagome passed away, and someone has died?

"No, he didn't die." Knowing her mother well, Kagome hurriedly explained, "It means I will never see him again."

"Alive?"

"Yeah."

"Oh, does that mean we can't meet or?"

"Uh..." Kagome's expression was tangled, "I guess we can't meet."

Higurashi's mother said "oh" in understanding, and then, "Then the other person..."

Kagome sweated helplessly under Higurashi's mother's bright eyes, "Alive, around, often meet..."

Hesitated for a moment, "Still, we can contact."

Hiss——Higurashi's mother covered her mouth again, her eyes widened, holding hands? A month? !

"Contact... to what extent?" She asked with difficulty, it can't be possible, Sengoku is so open? It can't be that after a few months, Ah Li Lian——

Higurashi's mother's mind quickly flashed through the church wedding and the child's grandmother... She shuddered.

"Mom." Kagome's tone was a little heavier, and he said with a fake smile, "Normal touch."

"Oh, okay, normal is good, normal is good..." Higurashi's mother secretly patted her chest with lingering fear.

After asking a few more questions, Higurashi's mother roughly understood the situation. To sum it up, it was unrequited love, one single and two at a time, one of them was impossible, and one was possible but didn't want to continue to develop, because he felt that the two feelings were sorry for the other.

"Is that so..." No wonder he said he did something wrong.

After talking to Higurashi's mother, Kagome seemed to be relieved a lot. He laughed softly, "I think too much. My situation... Anyway, they don't know, so continue to stay in the current state. After solving the problem, I will leave Sengoku."

Cut off from the world over there completely.

Whether it's Inuyasha or... Kikyo.

"Ali..." Higurashi's mother frowned, Kagome's tone was light, with an inexplicable relief and a blankness hidden in her eyes, which made her feel uncomfortable.

"Why run away?"

She disagreed, but at the same time, she did not make a decision for Kagome, "I won't ask you what you are worried about, but I believe in Ali."

- "I believe that Ali will move forward on the path he believes in."

Instead of running away to solve the problem.

Kagome's pupils trembled, the mother in her mind and the mother in front of her said the same words, overlapping each other.

Move forward... Kagome was at a loss, can he still move forward? Feelings for Kikyo?

"Mom..." He couldn't help but murmured, "Should I persist?"

"That depends on whether you think it makes sense to persist, but ah..." Higurashi's mother smiled, "Since the other party didn't reject your contact, why not give it a try?"

"But she has someone she likes."

"Did she confess?"

Kagome paused, "...No."

"Oh~ Then do you want to continue to persist with the other person?"

Inuyasha in another world...Kagome was silent for a long time this time, "I, have decided to let go." However, he couldn't ignore the emotional aspect.

Higurashi's mother didn't respond to his words directly, but reached out to hug Kagome, "Do what you want."

Kagome's eyes gradually brightened, and he nodded gently, as if relieved.

"Yeah."

Then give it a try.

Confession after confessing to Inuyasha who once had a crush on Kikyo.

There is no reason why he can't try to take another path after letting go of his feelings for Inuyasha.

If, if it doesn't work... Kagome blinked, just treat it as a broken heart.

Wiping away the tears and sweeping away the previous decadence, KagomeRecovering his former vigor, he stood up, picked up two shopping bags, and ran home in high spirits, "I'll go back and put my things away first."

Feeling a little embarrassed, he cried in his mother's arms.

Kagome, who had fled in a hurry, quickly went into the room, but this time she didn't escape absentmindedly.

Higurashi's mother looked at his back with relief, and suddenly remembered something, and touched her cheek in distress, "Oh, I forgot to ask the name of the person Kagome likes."

"Ask next time."

What she didn't know was that this opportunity came so quickly.

-

After returning to her room, Kagome walked back and forth in the bedroom, eager to go back to the Warring States.

The backpack went from being deflated at the beginning to being bulging and standing on the table.

Kagome touched the backpack, clenched her hands and shook her head, "No, no, we agreed to go in two days. If we go back now, everyone must be in the temple."

Without Kirara and Kikyo's dead soul bug, he could just throw it over with his two legs?

"How is it possible?" Kagome was speechless. She pulled out a chair and sat on it, leaning on the table and sighing, "Riding a bicycle is not much faster... If I also had something that could fly... Hmm?"

Kagome raised her head sharply and clapped her hands, "Yes, I have the sun. Ask the sun if it can take me over. It was Kikyo's shikigami who took me down the mountain."

Kagome did it right away. She jumped up excitedly and walked around the bedroom, "Sun, where are you?"

No one responded after calling her many times.

Strange.

Kagome stood in the middle of the bedroom with her hands on her hips, puzzled, "Where did a big shikigami like me go?"
