Misfortune Followed Us Home ch.4
Kagome emerged from her hut. It was a bright sun day, the low humid heat promised a long day of sweating ahead of her. She sighed as she twisted her hair up in a bun. Not all of it could fit and she had two strands that fell on either side of it down to her shoulder blades. She secured the bun with some ornamental chopsticks she had bought in her time. They were a soft cream color with green butterflies. Today she wore olive khaki bike shorts, a white cap-sleeved T-shirt and her favorite olive crop top jacket with tan hiking boots. She set down her bag, bow and arrows just outside her hut and went to retrieve the door. While she was securing it Shippo finally made his way out of the hut. He had obviously grown over the years and he now rested at Kagome’s waist. To her he looked a little taller than an average height human boy of ten years. He was dressed today in a white pair of hakamas, an olive green vest, and underneath a light blue shirt with a diamond pattern on it. Unlike Inuyasha, Shippo wore a small pair of black boots on his feet. His hair had straightened as he aged, loose it fell to his shoulder blades but he kept it in a high samurai tail that just touched the back of his neck. His tail, the fur had smoothed and reached down to touch his calf, swished side to side lazily as he waited for Kagome to finish with the door. Kagome patted the sturdy structure before locking the door and placing the key on a chain around her neck. Once Inuyasha had crawled out of his hole, Kagome had simply pointed back at the hut. The hanyou reluctantly went inside and swept out the debris. It had sat in the dusty road for a full minute before some children came and scavenged the wood for kindling and the fabric for doll dresses. He exited the hut and bounded off into the forest.Kagome sighed and stretched, “Come on Shippo, let’s go to Kaede-baa-chan’s and meet up with the others.” She put an arm around his shoulders and they walked together to Kaede’s.
-----------------
Kagome pulled back the cloth flap over the doorway to Kaede’s hut and let Shippo enter first. He removed his boots and leap onto the step before he sat down next to Kaede, his tail curling into his lap. Kaede sat next to the fire pit stirring a pot of oatmeal. Kagome had decided that the near instant food would be good for an easy breakfast on the road. Once Kaede tasted it, doused not too liberally with sugar, she was hooked. It was the elderly woman’s favorite breakfast. Finally done, she spooned some into three bowls, passing one to Shippo and the other to Kagome. Kagome removed the pot from the hook over the fire and replaced it with a kettle full if water for tea.
“Arigatou Kaede-baa-chan,” Shippo said with his mouth full of food. Kagome giggled at her son, “Hai, arigatou Kaede. And Shippo, you’ll wash the dishes when we’re done.” Shippo let out a low whine and turned his big green eyes, wet with unshed tears, to Kagome. He stuck his lip out and let it quiver a bit, sniffling. “I’m not buying it Kit, you’re washing the dishes.” “But Okaa-san-“ “Shippo,” Kagome warned. “Hai,” he responded sullenly.------------
After Shippo finished his food he set his bowl down and retrieved the washing tub from the corner. He was backing out the door tub in hand when his movement was suddenly halted. A small “Omph” was heard outside the door and suddenly the barrier was gone. Shippo tripped on his own feet and feel through the doorway, the washtub flew out of his hands landed on its side and began rolling down the street. Shippo hopped up, “Sorry,” he yelled over his shoulder as he ran and easily caught up to the rolling washtub, grasped it in one hand, and ran off toward the river.
