Love Again by Adria Li

Beginning

Doushite? Why did this happen to me? It seems as if my mind tells me that I should take revenge for what has happened. But my heart tells me to let it go. Oh, well. At least both of them are happy. I should let it go and move on with my life.

{Three and half years has passed.}

How long has it been since that day occurred? Probably a couple of years or so. It does not matter anyways. At least I am attending at Tokyo University. Mama is happy, of course. Ojii-chan, I am sure, is happy as well. However, he still worries about my safety. As for my little brother, Sota, he is now attending my old junior high school. Boy, has he gotten tall! Oh, yes. Buyo is lazy as usual. Therefore, my family is happy one.

As for my friends in the Feudal Era, they were still alive when I last saw them. Miroku-sama and Sango-chan confessed their love to each other and married. Sango-chan's younger brother, Kohaku-kun, sadly passed away. He sacrificed himself to save Sango-chan. Kirara, Shippou-chan, and Kaede-san were all well and alive. Inuyasha...I missed him. Still at least he was happy with his love, Kikyo. It was not that I am jealous. It was just that it hurt to have my first love not love me back. At least they were happy. Oh, yeah. How can I forget Koga and his pack? Of course, they cried their eyes out when I told them that I am going out back to my world and am not coming back. They wished me to be well and happy. Oh, as for my friends' and my arch-nemesis, Naraku, he disappeared from the face of the Earth. So you could say that the Shikon no Tama is completed and is now resided with me. Though I did not want it with me, I still must protect it due to my duty as a priestess.

I almost forgot. Rin-chan made me a flower-necklace and asked me if she is ever going to see me again. I told her that I am not, but will be within her heart forever; though Jaken was not happy that I said I even missed him too. I did not know why I said that. Anyway, that was that. However, I cannot forget him, Sesshoumaru, Dog-Demon Lord of the Western Lands of Japan. He was my enemy and at the same time, he was an ally. I still do not understand what possessed him to tell me to remember him always. That was odd.

At any rate, I am a typical eighteen-year-old Tokyo University student, who is having a normal life like everybody else. Yet, I never expect to feel that same aura again. How can he survive all this time? It is not right, but it is. I hope I get to meet him. When I was on my way to Tokyo University, I think I saw him several times. Still, I want to meet him formally. I hope he remembers me.
