Chapter 7: Forgiving Loose Ends

"Oh God no...No...why? What do you want with me? What did I ever do wrong?" Marron exclaimed turning and running away, as tears stung her eyes.

"Marron!" Uub yelled running her.

"Don't come after me!" Marron exclaimed as Uub grabbed her by the arm to face him.

"Marron...I don't know why you're mother's here. But maybe you should listen to her...?" Uub suggested.

"How can I talk to her now? She kicked me out of the house right before Jordan was born. She never gave me anything. She never helped me. She was never there! Don't you see Uub?! I can't even call her my mother anymore, she never acted like it! She even blamed me for my father's death! Why? Why now? Why is she here?" Marron yelled, sobbing and falling into Uub's embrace.

"Marron...she talked to me. She said she was sorry. She was a drunk remember? She went and got help. She wants you two to be a family again." Uub comforted.

"How can she? After all the shit she put me through. She wasn't even there the day Jordan was born. I called and left a message. I left 5 messages. I really wanted her there. I wanted her to see her grandchild..." Marron sobbed. Uub was speechless.

"But did she go? No. She stayed home. Did she come on Jordan's forst birthday? No, she didn't. Did she even visit daddy's grave that year. No. I didn't know what happened to her. And during my first few months living with Goten I couldn't understand. I'd look at Jordan and wonder. Why couldn't she accept my child. Why? I asked myself over and over again. How could my own mother disapporve of such a wonderful child?" Marron cried.

"She told me she was afraid that you would be like she was. She gave birth to you in high school, and she didn't know how to help you because her mother didn't help her. All she asks is forgiveness Marron. She doesn't ask for anything else. Just forgive her. She wants to help you rid the pain...Marron."

"Trunks are you there?" Pan asked.

"I'm right next to you...I think. It's too dakr in here. Where the hell is that flashlight Goten?" Trunks whispered.

"One..and there!" Goten exclaimed, turning on a flashlight.

"About time." Bura muttered.

"Gimme one!" Trunks laughed, pouncing on Goten and taking the bag out of his hand.

"Trunks that's no fair! I wasn't ready!" Goten pouted.

"Shut up you guys. We don't know if Vegeta has this place wired." Pan whispered.

"He doesn't Pan don't worry about it. Living with my mom you learn more than you need about electronics. And I'm pretty sure this place doesn't have a light switch." Bura stated, matter-of-factly.

"Hey you guys...is that a torch?" Goten asked, pointing to what seemed like a torch, which led to a flight of stairs.

"Wow, the guy does have brains." Trunks snickered.

"Can it Trunks. We're here to find out what your dad's hiding from us, not clown on Goten. Got it?" Pan exclaimed irritabbly.

"Y-Yes ma'am." Trunks replied.

"Let's just light up that torch and take it down the stairs okay?" Bura said.

"Okay." Goten replied, taking the torch and using a ki attack to light it.

"Hmmm...looks kinda dark down there..." Goten said, looking down the stairs.

"Just go!" Pan yelled, behind him.

And so our three friends walked down the stairs, but what was down there was something they weren't expecting.

Uub and Marron

"Marron...I'm sorry about the past five years...could you ever forgive me?" Juuhachigou asked.

"Mom...I don't know anymore. You left me with nothing. With no where to go to. I'm surprised I'm even graduating." Marron said.

"I know. ChiChi told me. I'm so proud of you. I didn't know what to do when I found out. And worse enough I was drunk. I wasn't thinking streight. i didnt mean to say what I said. And I was too ashamed to visit you after." Juuhachigou sobbed.

"Mom..." Marron said, embracing her mother.

"I'm so sorry." Juuhachigou cried.

"I forgive you, it's okay." Marron comforted her mom.

"Maybe I shouldn't be here right now..." Uub said umcomfrotably, watching Marron and her mom. "I think I'll get going. Be Back Later..." Uub said, turning around and leaving.
