Chapter 6: Mother's Day
It was noe Friday, Mother's Day. Trunks opened his eyes. Trunks streched his arms and let out a huge sigh. Vegeta had still not returned so Mrs. Briefs was staying with Trunks.
"Trunks, hunny, breakfast is ready!" Trunks rushed down stairs to eat. After eating he walked to the kitchen door way. "Hey, grandma..." "Yes?" Trunks paused for a long moment before he spoke again. "Oh..Never mind."
Suddenly the door opened. Trunks turned to see his father standing there. "Daddy!!" The boy ran and threw his arms around Vegeta's waist. "I missed you soo much, Daddy!"
Trunks looked up but Vegeta wasnt smiling. He... he looked sad. "Come Trunks, I have something I need to show you." They took off into the sky. "Be home in time for Dinner!" Mrs. Briefs yelled after them.
Vegeta landed in the clearing of the forest beside the waterfall. "What's so great 'bout this place, Dad?" Trunks asked. "This was your mothers favorite place..." Trunks noticed a big stone sticknig out of the ground. He walked up to it. On it read: Here Lies Mrs. Bulma Briefs. May She Rest In Peace.
"This is alos where she was burried." Trunks was shocked. "She... she's dead? B-but....how?" "she was killed... She was killed while you were still young..." Trunks looked at the family picture on her grave. Vegeta walked up behind Trunks. "Let go." The boy stood up and walked over beside the waterfall. "Its real pretty here."
"That's why your mother loved it so much..." Vegeta said as he he laid a rose under the picture. "Time to go." He placed his hand on his son's shoulder.
As they turned and faced the grave Trunks noticed that the buds on the roses were begining to bloom. "Wow... they're blooming for Mother's Day!" Vegeta half way smiled as they took off into the sky. ' Happy Mother's Day, Mommy!'
Returning home Trunks ran inside to tell his grandma the good news, that he had a mother! Trunks didnt seem quite as tore up as Vegeta thought he would be. Quitely Vegeta walked up to his room. "Well now her knows..." He muttered as he layed down on the bed. He stared a the ceiling for a long time, finally the door opened and Trunks walked in. "Thanks dad..." he whispered as he walked to the bed side.
Vegeta was silent. He didnt even move. Trunks looked as his father with concern. "Daddy... are you okay?" Still no reply. The boys eyes began to water. "Daddy, why wont you talk! Whats wrong with you?" His hands began to tremble as he stood there looking at his father. "Daddy... say something.. please!" Tears streamed down Trunks's cheeks. "Daddy..."
He turned around, not saying a word and left his father's room. Vegeta's eyes stung trying to fight back tears. "Bulma..." he whispered. "I wish you were here..." Silently, Trunks walked aways from the door. "Poor dad..."
~~ Well that's it for now. Sorry this chapter was soo sappy and cheap. But the idea of the roses came from roses my mother has. They bloom every mothers day.
