The Sight of Your Eyes

My Childhood Friend

Chapter 1

Kagome was a violinist, but just for her part time job. She's walking from house to house sell some fresh fruits and vegetables, but people barely buy some from her because most of the people buy groceries from supermarkets: that's her full time job.

She started early in the morning at 8:00 so that she can reach abundant of houses. Now she's at her first house. She rang the door bell and waited for the house's owner.

"Hi, I'm selling some fruits and veggies. I was wondering if you want to buy some," Kagome said without looking up.

There, the owner of the house is a silver-haired man, his silvery eyes boring into her lithe form.

"And may I ask what are you doing selling these things at an early age?" Asked the man.

Actually she was now 25. Kagome looked up and gasped at what she saw: her childhood friend, Sesshoumaru. She didn't know that he live just a couple of houses from her.

"Sesshy," Kagome whispered, "I have nowhere to go." Then she ran away quickly, desperate to go away from him. She didn't know what to do, and she didn't want to deal with him right now so it's the only option left: to run away far away from him.

Sesshoumaru decided that, that's a little strange for his childhood friend but he will find out soon enough. The way Kagome covered herself with rugs worried him, but just as he said: he will find out soon enough.

And there it is again: every time he see her, he kept on hearing music in his ears. Could she be the muse he was looking for?

Sesshoumaru was a pianist, who is looking for a muse that could help him finish the piece that he was working on, but he couldn't find the muse that could help him.

Could it be, Kagome? The muse that I was looking for? I finished a lot piece without a muse, but why do I need one now? Because I don't have an inspiration was the answer on the back of his mind

Kagome walked on from house to house with her still full basket, trying to forget about her encounter with her friend, but she just couldn't.

But why couldn't I? That question was left unanswered for she didn't know why.

Kagome sighed. It's the end of the day, and she didn't earn anything for selling fruits and vegetables. Even a single dime, nothing.

How could I pay my rent now? How could I earn $400 to pay my rent? I'm already one month late now, and I'm just glad that the owner of these apartment is my friend. If not, I was kicked out of here long ago. Kagome sighed again. She have to talk to Miroku about this.

She walked down series of stairs to Miroku's apartment. She knocked on the door and there was his friend and his brilliant smile on his face.

"I need help," Kagome sighed and Miroku opened his door to let her in.

"Why don't you just work in my club?" Miroku suggested and Kagome gave him a smile that melted his heart.

"Really? What will I be doing there?" Kagome asked curiously.

"You can work as my bartender." Miroku replied.

"You're a really good friend, Miroku," Kagome said and hugged him, "but don't try anything or I'll kill you myself."

"Crap," Miroku said and laughed nervously. His right hand is halfway to its destination but stopped because of Kagome's threat.

"You can start working tonight." Miroku said.

"Thank you so much!" Kagome squealed.

"Your very welcome, and do you want to stay for the night?" Asked Miroku.

"No thank you, Miroku, my apartment is just above yours!" Kagome said, but then it hit her like a big rock.

"YOU LECHER!" Kagome said and hit him on the head.

Kagome walked back to her apartment shaking her head. Miroku never changes, never did Sesshoumaru: cold as always.

I wonder why Sesshy is so cold to everyone especially when we talked about his mother oh I mean step mother. Speaking of stepmother, where is Yasha?

Then her thoughts turned back to what happened when she was 20.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Flashback...

When she was 20, she was called the virgin mary because she helped other people, donate to charities, cleaned the house everyday to keep it clean: she was perfect. But one day came that she met a guy: he's an artist, painter to be exact. He's a famous guy, known in the whole world for his paintings, for his paint looked alive and lots of love involved in it. They fell in love and the guy asked Kagome to live with him and she did. She left her family for him: her mother, her sister, her brother, her father. She left them for him.

After two years of living with him. He has changed. He beat her up everyday, saying that she longer satisfies him and telling her that she's suppose to be his muse but he can't do marvelous paintings anymore. It came to the point that he's bringing concubines home and ignore Kagome and beat her up later, in front of his concubines.

Kagome decided one day that she's going to leave him. But there was one thing that she want him to dispose of: the painting that he made of her, of her without anything on. He agreed to it and promised her that he will.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

That got her now in selling fruits and vegetables around the street and if she got lucky, Sango will call her and tell her that she can come with them, to substitute toa violinist that cancelled or can't come.
