A Life Changing Day

Life moves on, that's what everyone seems to say. Well in a small town in Japan life was moving on, but it wasn't in the direction the young woman wanted it to be. Trunks had been gone for a month now, and she hadn't spoken to him one time. He had called her, but she didn't answer, and she never called back. She had spoken to her Uncle Goten twice, but kept the conversations short, and now, she didn't want to speak to anybody. Today her whole life went up in flames, and she wasn't sure what she was going to do about it….

After Trunks had left Pan decided to go back to college and finish her degree. She had went for two years right out of high school but ended up quitting and now she felt that she wanted to finish, she wanted to get her degree and she wanted to be a doctor. She stopped leasing her apartment and moved back home with her parents, that was more stress then she thought it would have been, but they accepted everything she had said, that was until this day. She was in the process of just starting her schooling; it was the first week when she noticed something was wrong. She came home from college that day, earlier than usual she skipped her last two classes, and her mother was standing in the kitchen.

"Pan Honey, aren't you home early," her mother asked, keeping her focus on the pie she was making in the kitchen. Pan didn't speak a word; she just went and sat at the kitchen table, waiting for her mother to say something else. "Pan are you feeling alright, you look a little flushed," Videl spoke up again, wiping her hands on the towel that was lying next to the sink. Videl walked over and took a seat on the chair that was to the right of her daughter, keeping her eyes fixed on her the whole time.

"Mother, where's dad," Pan's voice was a little over a whisper, not wanting anyone to hear her, especially her father.

"He's still at the University, baby, what's wrong, you know you can tell me anything," Pan felt her mother's warm hand on her arm, she looked up from the spot she had been fixated on at the table, and met her mother's understanding eyes, and she broke down.

"Mom, I'm in trouble," she balled, stuttering her words, barely able to speak, "I messed up big time, and now it's all coming back to haunt me," she leaned over into her mothers open arms, Videl had know idea what her baby was even talking about.

"Pan is someone trying to hurt you, you know that all you need to do is say something, and you are a strong girl, Pan what is wrong, please tell me, I will help you," Videl stayed calm, rubbing her daughters back.
"Mom, it's Trunks, I messed up, I did the wrong thing," she sobbed, Videl could barely make out the words that Pan was yelling. "Mom what do I do, what am I supposed to do."

"Pan, listen to me, it isn't the end of the world, when Trunk's gets back, just talk to him, or maybe you should call him, and take a trip out to see him, it has only been a month," she tried to sound uplifting, but the truth was she wasn't sure what to tell her daughter to do. Who knows what Trunks was doing, he was across the ocean, in a whole new world.

"No Mom, you don't understand," her tears fell harder and faster now, she was to the point of almost convulsing she was crying so hard.

"What don't I understand, tell me so I can help you Pan, you aren't a child anymore, you are 23 years old, you need to talk to me." Silence fell on the kitchen, and Pan started to try and pull herself together, her mother was right, she was an adult now, not a sniffling little child.

"I'm pregnant," that was it, she had said it, the words finally came out of her mouth, her mother's reaction was exactly as she thought it would be, shock. Videl stood up from the chair as quickly as she had ever moved in her life, her eyes were glossy, not knowing what to say to her daughter, her careless immature daughter. She stared at her, not moving, just standing in the middle of the kitchen staring at her young daughter, pregnant.

"Tell me this is a joke," her voice was quiet, still in shock, she looked to Pan for some sort of laughter, some sort of big gag, this was a joke this was no doubt some sort of joke.

"Mom it's not a joke, I took the test this morning, I think I am about a month or so pregnant," Pan had stopped crying for now, she felt as if she had no more tears to cry. Her mother on the other hand, was crying plenty for both of them, and to make matters worse, she heard the front door open, her father was now home. Slowly footsteps made their way into the kitchen, where Gohan found his wife in tears and his daughter sitting quietly on a chair. He rushed over to Videl, engulfing her in a hug, "Baby, what's wrong," he cooed into her ear. But there was no response, she pushed away from him, and ran upstairs, to get away from her daughter, what a disgrace to the family name, pregnant without a husband, without a boyfriend. Gohan went over to his daughter, he could sense something was wrong, "Pan, what is going on here, tell me now," he was stern, he didn't like coming home to a house full of problems.

"Daddy, please don't be angry with me," she started to cry again, the man who she looked up to her whole life was now going to get the news he probably never would want to here, well at least not right now.

"Tell me Pan, what did you say to your mother that has her so upset?"

"Daddy, I, I, I'm pregnant." Gohan's expressions fell off his face, he didn't even wait for an explanation, what kind of explanation would he get, he turned around and bolted out the front door, this wasn't happening, not to his baby, not to his little girl, he needed to come up with some sort of plan, and he needed to do it fast. He headed into the forest to find his quiet place, a place where he could go and think, and hopefully figure some sort of plan out.
