Forgive me. I mustn't be very good company.
(glances at her) Sango...
You don't have to stay with me, go have fun. Just- as long as it's not with another woman.
Listen, we'll get through this together. I'm staying here with you- I can't even fathom leaving you alone to go indulge myself.
(smiles) You're so kind- my good monk.
Uh- what are you doing?
Oh, I thought maybe you were Shippo in disguise, but- it's really you. (smiles and leans against his shoulder) I'm glad.
(walking up behind them with Kaede, outraged) I don't believe it- she doesn't trust me?!
No, no, 'tis the monk she does not trust, Shippo.
Perhaps, but that's not what's troubling Sango. While their objectives may differ, we know that both Naraku and Midoriko are attempting to complete the Shikon Jewel. According to Inuyasha:
(flashback) When Naraku obtains the completed Shikon Jewel, it will instantly be defiled by his touch. In that instant, we must purify Naraku- along with the Jewel. He cannot be defeated with a sword.
That is what Kikyo said to Inuyasha.
I see. But, of course, in order to complete the Shikon Jewel, Kohaku's life would have to be sacrificed.
(looks away, sadly) And that's also what Kohaku wants.
And... what of you, Sango? Is it also your wish that Kohaku be sacrificed?
(shakes her head) I don't know.
Ye do not wish him dead- 'tis written all over your face, my child.
But-
It may be a little early, yet, to give up on your brother.
Indeed, it is. If Naraku seeks to complete the Shikon Jewel, then we must simply find a way to defeat him before that happens. Am I right?
Miroku-
Sango, regardless of what we decide to do, we must remain united. If you want him to live, say so.
