I'm sitting with my best friends, Ally and Tabitha, outside of a café. We ordered our coffee earlier and now, we are waiting for them. I haven't seen my two best friends for two years now! They were still in high school when I graduated early and we were busy with our own stuff.
After our plan, I am going to start my training with my mom today. I am super excited!
"I like the guy from our geography class back in ninth grade. The one who sat in front of me. Do you guys remember him? Samuel Isaac?" Ally says. I'm trying to think who Samuel Isaac is and what he looks like.
"Awwww, you guys would definitely make a very cute couple!" Tabitha replies.
"Wait, wait, I'm trying to remem- Ohhhh! I know who you are talking about now," I reply, "Yeah, I agree with Tabitha. You guys look really cute together."
"I asked him out and he said yes." Both Tabitha and I burst into smiles after hearing this.
"Really? That's awesome, you guys are really cute together," Tabitha replies.
"That's amazing, Ally. May you two stay together always," I reply.
"Thank you guys," Ally replies, "Now enough talking about myself, I wanna hear things about how you guys have been."
Tabitha and I look at each other and then I tell her that she can go first and then she tells me that I can go first. I don't want to argue with it, so I just go ahead.
"So, Ally and Tabitha, you guys probably won't believe me when I say this, but," I start, about to whisper to them one of my biggest secrets ever, "I'm not from Planet Earth."
They both have shock on their faces after hearing this.
"Really? That is so cool!" Tabitha replies.
"You're an alien, Bianca?" Ally asks.
"Yes," I say, nodding.
"That is so cool! What planet are you from?" Ally replies.
"I'm from Planet Vegeta," I whisper.
"Ohhhh, we've never heard of that actually, but what was it like over there?" Tabitha asks.
"Most of the Saiyans, that's the name of the people that I belong to, are really violent and really merciless. They kill innocent people and they take over planets, but for some time on my planet, they have been serving this tyrant named Frieza. When I was seven, my mom and I were making our escape plan and my mom was able to quickly send me to Earth. She was caught and then she had to go to prison for over ten years," I say sadly.
Both Tabitha and Ally have sad looks on their faces.
"Oh my gosh, I am terribly sorry to hear that you have to come from such a ruthless and twisted race and also, your mom had to face prison for such a long time," Ally replies.
"Yeah, I agree. I'm really glad that you were able to make it to Earth safely though," Tabitha says.
"Me too," Ally says.
"I have to thank my mom for everything though. She was the one that first changed her heart for the better and she told me to be the best person you can be. She wanted me to have a great life and I held her back as we were trying to escape. It should have been me that was in prison and not her. She suffered because I was the one that held her back," I say.
"What? No no, I don't think your mom thought of you like that. She wanted what was best for you," Tabitha replies.
"Yeah, nobody deserves to be wrongfully imprisoned. Nobody deserves to be imprisoned because they were doing the right things that that tyrant Frieza thought was wrong," Ally replies.
Ever since I left Planet Vegeta, I've been thinking about my mom and I would keep on thinking that I should have never left her there and that I should have got her out of there. I would keep regretting this over the years and it would haunt me. It still does now and I was really really happy and really really relieved to see my mother again. If she were to be dead, I would've never forgiven myself.
"I was able to see her again and get her out of prison and out of our planet. I was really really happy," I reply.
"Hey, that's amazing news, Bianca! May she adjust very well to this planet," Tabitha says while she is smiling very big.
"Here are your orders. Here you go, ma'am," the waitress says, giving one of the orders first to Ally.
"Thank you," Ally replies with a smile. Both Ally and Tabitha have really pretty smiles.
"And here's your order, ma'am," the waitress says, giving it to Tabitha.
"Thank you so much," Tabitha says, smiling.
"And here's your order, ma'am," the waitress says to me as she gives me my order.
"Thank you," I say, smiling.
"No problem. Would you guys like anything else?" The waitress asks us.
We all shake our heads no and then I say to the waitress, "No, I think that will be all, ma'am."
"Alrighty, I hope you guys enjoy and have a good rest of y'all's day."
"Thank you," we all reply and then I add, "You as well."
"Thank you," the waitress says, smiling, before leaving.
"Picking up on where we left off in our conversations, thank you so much, Tabitha. I will definitely let my mom know that," I say. I then sip into my coffee.
"The same goes for me too. I can only wonder how it must have been like to not have your biological mother around for so long and it's a huge relief that you got to see your mom again," Ally says. Tabitha nods in agreement.
"Thank you guys so much, really," I reply.
"You're welcome," they both reply.
"Hey, Tabitha, is there anything you want to share or no?" I ask.
"Yeah yeah, I just wanted to say that, um," Tabitha starts, "I've kept this to myself for a while now because I was really scared, but now, I'm not scared anymore. I'm bisexual."
"What did you say?" Ally says to Tabitha with an annoyed tone. Ally being like that makes me very angry.
"She says that she's bisexual. Do you have a problem with that, Ally?" I argue.
"Yes, I do. Women aren't supposed to be with women and men aren't supposed to be with men. It's supposed to be women with men and men with women only."
"You know, Ally, you are really close-minded," Tabitha argues.
"Tabitha had kept this for years because she was scared of people like you to judge her," I argue to Ally.
"I'm not judging Tabitha, okay? I'm just telling you guys that what Tabitha is doing is wrong, okay?" Ally argues.
"It's not wrong and if you can't respect that, Bianca and I cannot be friends with you anymore," Tabitha argues back.
"You know what? Fine. I didn't want to be around you guys anyways. You guys disgust me," Ally says before picking up her things and leaving the table we are sitting at. I glare at her as she is leaving.
"Hey, Bianca. I never knew Ally was like that at all," Tabitha says to me.
"Me neither. I thought she was really nice and really sweet, but I guess that was her true colors," I say to Tabitha, shaking my head.
"Let's forget about her."
"I second that."
