POV - point of view
When there is a POV, it is a characters point of view of the day.
CHAPTER #1 Neglected Love
After the Cell Games, things were under routine at Goku and Chi-Chi's house.
"AGAIN WITH THE TRAINING?!! Goku, don't you think that for once you should take a break." "No way Chi-Chi, I'm at my prime. No one can beat me" "Please Go--, never mind, go ahead." "Thanks Chi"
Chi-Chi watched sadly as Goku left her, again. All of a sudden, her stare out the window was broken by Goten tugging at her dress. "What's wrong Mommy?" "Huh, oh nothing sweetie." She picked up Goten and kissed him on the forehead. "Why don't you and Gohan go with daddy." "Bye mommy" Chi-Chi watched with a sad smile across her face as her sons too left her. It's not their fault. What with that father of theirs to model off of. Chi-Chi silently let her quiet, shimmering tears trickle down her face, preparing food to leave out for her boys and waited until it was time for bed. However, she decided to go to bed right before the boys did. She got dressed into her nightgown and drank a purple-blue liquid. Her eyelids grew heavy and almost instantly fell onto her bed.
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Chi-Chi's POV~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~-
Oh, why doesn't he ever stay for me? I feel so lonely. Everyday, the only times I see him is when he wakes up and when he goes to bed. That's all. He doesn't love me. all he cares about is fighting. I bet if I ran away, he wouldn't even notice I'm gone. I can live on my own. I'll say goodbye to the boys. then I'll go. I need to make sure I have my diary, my knife, a few pairs of clothes, matches and a bag. Oh no. they're coming in for the day. I can't let Goku see me cry.

"Ok guys, Mom's left us some really nice stuff. Dig in!" Gohan and Goten practically drooled over dinner. However, all three of them devoured it in seconds like hungry wolves. After they were done, they had grains of rice all over their face. Goten stretched and called out, "That was great, thanks mommy!" There was no reply from Chi-Chi. Goku, Gohan and Goten looked confused as to Chi-Chi's silence. Goku got up and said, "It's late boys. You were wonderfulin training. Look outside, its nighttime and the stars are out. It's time to go to bed you two." Goku smiled as the two brothers groaned and complained on their walk to their bedrooms. However, he went to go find Chi-Chi.
Goku smiled as he walked into the dim-lighted bedroom, greeted by the beautiful sleeping form of Chi-Chi. He immediately fell into a deep sleep, giving no thought of either hugging or kissing Chi-Chi goodnight.
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Goku's POV~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~-
Man, its been a hard day. I'm so glad to be back home. But, man oh man am I confused. Why did Chi-Chi go to bed early today. Wait, what's this? She was crying, there are tears on her cheek. Oh well, I'll ask her what's wrong tomorrow. Then again. maybe. oh never mind. I'll just wait. -~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~-
It was so early it still looked like nighttime outside. Chi-Chi woke up suddenly and jumped up. She stared around the room on panic. Goku was in a tremendously deep sleep. Training always wears him out, and he had been training a lot more than usual. Chi-Chi lay next to him, relaxed and soothed by his calm, steady breathing. His breathing lured her into a light doze as she now lay her head on his bare chest. This was too perfect. In his sleep, Goku instinctively put his arm around Chi-Chi and hugged her. This immediately woke her up. She felt so small in his huge, muscular arms. She lightly kissed him on the cheek and Goku's eyes started to twitch. He was waking up! Chi-Chi immediately grabbed her things and ran out of the house like a bat out of hell. Frantic with tears, she ran and ran and ran. Who knows where?
CHAPTER 2 Lost in the Night
Chi-Chi was running blindly. Her eyes were closed and burning from her incessant tears. She sprinted swiftly through the grasslands between her house and the forest. Her only company was the moon and stars in the midnight black sky. She knew now where she would go. as far as her legs and broken, empty heart could carry her. As she continued sprinting, she bumped into something. As she fell backwards, she saw a stunned Vegeta, drinking water from the river. "Well, well. Isn't this lovely, Kakarot's wife. What brings you here at this time of night," said Vegeta with a curious smile on his lips. Again, Vegeta was shocked when Chi-Chi suddenly hugged him, sobbing frantically. "Oh Vegeta, please don't tell Goku or my sons. I'm running away." She stopped hugging him and gave him a begging look in her beautiful eyes. "Er. I promise I won't say a word. But tell me, wasn't everything going well between you and Kak-er. Goku?" "No Vegeta, in fact, I must say I am the loneliest woman ever. Goku has been training so hard, he hasn't even thought once about me." Another tear went down her cheek. Vegeta laid a reassuring hand on her shoulder. "Don't worry. Make sure you keep yourself safe." "Goodbye Vegeta." And yet again. Chi-Chi ran off into the unknown.
She stopped to catch her breath. She turned to face the direction of her house, which she then realized she had traveled several miles. The house was out of her sight. This for her was a good sign. She could find a good place to hide and rest. She turned around and saw a huge tree. It was so large, its roots were bulging and arching out of the ground. She lay down beneath the roots and covered herself in a blanket she had packed. She felt warm on this summer night and started writing in her diary.
Dear Diary,
It's my first day away from home and I'm nervous. I've never been his far into the woods before. However, I know this is where I belong. I am not wanted at home. Goku is always training; he never even tries to spend time with me. I bet he won't even know that I'm gone.
Tired from running, Chi-Chi closed her eyes and fell asleep.
