Chapter 5: Surprise Visits
"Sooooo.tell me, how did last night go? Tell me what all you did!!!" Bra squealed into the phone, anxious to find out all about what her best friend had done whole on her first date with a new guy in over 3 years.
"Let's see.where to start. Bra, this guy is a total heart-throb. Jet Black hair and some of the warmest brown eyes I have ever seen. They are major competition against Goten's."
"I doubt that Mare."
"I mean it. Anyways, he toke me to Mercury's Castle, you know that new place by the Water Wall? Oh my God, I am so glad your bother did not take me there. He would have ruined the whole romantic feeling."
"And-"
"And then we walked around for a while and he dropped me off at 2 this morning. But he wants to go out tomorrow night."
"You are back out in the real world." Bra teased. "Hey, how about you and me go catch a movie or something tonight? You know, a girls night out."
Marron smiled. "Sounds like fun. I'll pick ya up around 7, k? First I have to get some sleep though. But I will be there, you better be ready."
"I will be, don't you worry. Sweet dreams girly."
"Later." With that, Marron laid the receiver back in the cradle and fell back asleep.
***** ding dong...ding dong ding dong.
"I'm coming. Give me a second, geez." Marron called as she made her way towards the door.
Opening the door, she saw a delivery man.
"Package. Sign here." He said thrusting the clipboard at her.
Scribbling her name on the line, she handed the board back to him in exchange for the package in his hands. Kicking the door shut behind her, she read the return address and smiled. She reached for a knife to open the box and dug through the Styrofoam packing peanuts. Smiling, she pulled a box of chocolates out read the note taped on the lid.
Hey there angel, Sorry Trunks did that to you but don't worry, things will be fine Love Mom and Dad
Smiling, Marron opened the box of chocolates and popped one of the chocolate covered caramels in her mouth. Her parents always knew how to make her feel better, even if it took them 3 months to let her know they cared.
She continued to pop chocolate after chocolate while she flipped through a magazine, when she began to feel light headed. She grabs the side of the table to keep from falling out of her chair.
"What's going on?" she asked herself.
She heard the front door open and close. Quickly she turned to see who came in.
"Oh, hi Trunks." She smiled a lop-sided smile at him.
*Wait.don't we hate each other.* Then the room went black.
