'She's late.'

Keiko let out a sigh, glancing down at her watch as her foot tapped on the ground impatiently. Her lips tightened in annoyance and she wondered if accepting this tutor job was the right thing to do.

'Is this girl a delinquent or something?' The brunette almost wanted to roll her eyes at the thought and hoped that this Higurashi Kagome was not because she had enough with all that already.

It had been too much and as such, after a long time of thinking about their relationship and potential future together, Keiko had decided to break it off with Yusuke because she wanted a normal life.

And with Yusuke, she was guaranteed the exact opposite.

'But the good thing that came out of this is that I met Aki,' Keiko smiled at the thought of her current boyfriend (choosing not to tell Yusuke because Hojo was still in high school), 'He treats me right.'

"I'm sorry I'm late!"

The university student was broken out of her thoughts when a voice called out to her and Keiko turned to see a girl quickly running up to her.

Keiko widened her eyes, surprised to see quite the beauty stop in front of her, 'She's so pretty...' She swiftly put on a smile on her face, "Are you Higurashi Kagome?" She asked curiously.

"Yes," Kagome nodded, "And I can assume you are my tutor Yukimura-san?" She asked, taking in the older girl's appearance. She looked normal enough and the Miko was relieved by that.

"Just call me Keiko," The brunette said in a friendly manner and Kagome sighed silently in relief because Keiko seemed down to earth and wasn't going to be a bitch about tutoring her, "Would you like to get something to eat before we start?"

"Sure." Kagome smiled, following after Keiko though she made sure that her senses remained highly alert of their surroundings. After all, she had to make that Youkai following her wasn't a threat to her and her new tutor and she couldn't help but to wonder one thing.

Just what did it want?
