“Kagome, I just wanted to say I love you. Not us, not how we are together. I love you.”
Kagome remained silent. Her lips were set in a thin line as she seemed to struggle to understand the meaning of Sango’s words.
“You were right,” Sango continued. “In order to finish this, we can’t allow our selfish needs and desires to interfere. Because we can’t have a simple, uncomplicated relationship, because there are things that need to be done and other people we must love and care for, doesn’t change that fact that I love you and that I feel a better person for knowing and loving you. You’re doing the right thing, doing the best that you know how. You can’t change the circumstances of your life for me, or I for you. You saw that. I took me a little longer, but I finally understood that as well. ”
