SAVING ME

Chapter 1 – Meeting

The sunlight streaming through the window of the beat up old pick-up truck awoke Rin Karo from deep slumber. It had been a long time since the girl had slept throughout the night, it had been the first time she had not been sleeping on the street and felt safe enough to sleep peacefully. The rusty old Chevrolet truck had been parked and abandoned and covered by over grown bushes, a godsend for the young girl. The loud rumbling of her stomach echoed in the small space and tears came to her eyes. She ran a hand to her still flat stomach, the place where her child lay tucked…sleeping. It was this child that had changed her life and yet, she could not bring herself to hate it.

Rin Karo was seventeen, homeless, penniless…with nothing to her name except for the filthy clothes on her back. She had been the privileged daughter of a wealthy family until seven weeks ago and already, this life was a hard adjustment. She couldn't find work because she had left all her documents at home. She had had to scrounge in the garbage for the last 2 weeks, it was a humiliating, humbling experience and already the once beautiful young lady was unrecognizable beneath the filth of her appearance.

She was almost seventy miles from home and she hoped it was far enough, to escape them…to escape everyone. Unlocking the doors to the truck, the petite girl crawled from its moldy interior and made her way through the thick foliage and grass towards the road. Across from the road was a small town, maybe she could find a job there but on looking down on her dirty jeans, her dark gray shirt which had been white and her sneakers which were bursting at the seams and thought, it was very unlikely she would be helped.

She was in the middle of crossing the road when an intense pain seized her middle. Gasping, she fell to her knees in pain, doubling over. Gasping from the pain, she cried out, wondering if it was her two day stint from having found nothing to eat or drink. The honk of a horn had her looking to the left to see a car coming a breakneck speed but she was in too much pain and too exhausted, hungry and weak to move…she closed her eyes and welcomed the darkness which assuredly meant death.

The sleek black BMW screeched as it tried to avoid hitting the homeless man, careening into the dust and making a donut as it came to a halt. Sesshomaru, heart pounding from the near fatality stomped from the car and into the middle of the road to duly chastise the figure when he found face up a dirthy young woman in dead faint. Cursing his luck, he picked up the light-weight creature and took it to his car, unable to leave her in the middle of the road.

This was not his day at all.
