Chapter 3: Pretty as a Picture
Sesshomaru sat in a plastic chair in the break room with a styrofoam cup filled with steamy noodles in front of him, ready to eat, but a text message off his flip phone had his undivided attention.
It was from his younger sister, a multimedia message showing a picture of her wedding dress, which he dubbed it as a monstrosity. By gods, it was gaudy, with ruffles and lace. It reminded him of the seventeenth-century western attire with an unnecessary hoopskirt and tons of brocade patterns.
His sister had an appalling fashion sense, well most of them did excluding her and Inuyasha’s mother. Though he was happy for her, it left a bitter taste in his mouth. He was almost thirty years old and yet his younger siblings are wedded or about to be.
He knew what he lacked, but he wasn’t about to admit out loud. His pride was damaged enough from the constant rejections.
It depressed him, just a bit, but for now he was just content with working and saving his earnings for the right moment in life. It would do him well to be prepared for the possible future as he was positive he will find the woman made for him soon.
Maybe he was being too overly optimistic, but he rationalized that maybe he was being too pessimistic lately and needed a difference in personal opinion for a bit, to keep his hope from dying.
He needed to keep his head up and not down.
