CHAPTER 2
HOW CAN THAT BE?

Recap: 'That was so beautiful' said Steph, her tear spilling down her cheeks. Videl despite herself burst into tears. 'Poor guy, he was son nice and gentle I would have never guessed that he was so alone' wailed Step. 'We have to find out who it is, who it is that wrote this' said Videl wiping away remaining tears.

Videl found herself waiting in the lunch hall for the simple reason, curiosity had gotten the better of her. FLASH BACK 'You would have never have guessed his parents died' said Steph. 'Oh man, I really want to know who wrote this, what can I say I was just born curious' she sighed. Steph raised her eyebrows 'I could point him out for you?'. 'You could?' replied Videl surprised. 'Yeah he has a memorable face, kinda cute' said Steph dreamily.

The two girls returned to class and Videl showed Eraser the letter as she would have found out anyway. Videl swore her ears were bigger than normal size especially when it came to gossip. 'Oh let me help you, he sound so sweet.....please let me help you' pleaded Eraser. 'Yeah ok' said Videl knowing she wouldn't be able to deprive her of information for long. 'We were going to wait in the cafeteria before everyone else so Step could pick him out of everyone who came in the door, and hey presto out mystery man is revealed' said Videl. 'Good plan, I like it' said Steph. 'Ditto' chirped Eraser. 'GIRLS PLEASE DON'T TALK IN MY CLASS' came the teacher angry voice from the front of the class. 'Sorry' mumbled Videl. Because they were told they were to be sent to the office if they continued to talk they compensated by fidgeting excitedly for the whole lesson. As soon as the bell rang, the girls exploded out of there seats and ran to the cafeteria. Gabbing their food they sat down and ate slowly there eyes glued on the door. END OF FLASH BACK

Gohan left the office for lunch. The teachers had asked him if he could solve the questions they dealt out. They got harder and harder but still not to hard to causes Gohan to think twice. Soon he got impatient 'Cant you see, I can do all the question you given me so easy its not funny just give me your hardest and be done with it!' he said. 'Ok then' chemistry. There's no way he is this smart, like everyone else he has limits. He wont get this next question finished he thought evilly. But the chemistry teacher wasn't the only one who thought this, so the teachers pulled out questions they even answer and laid them before this supposed genius. Gohan causally picked up a pencil and looked at the paper dumbstruck. The teachers laughted at his cockiness that was so short live as they had thought he wasn't that smart no body was. Gohan looked up 'is that the hardest you've got' he stammered thinking there was a possibility they were lying. The teachers grins faulted. With no further complaining Gohan scribbled down some answers, in three second he had completed their so called impossible questions and gave them there papers back. The bell sounded 'May I go to lunch please' the chemistry teacher nodded in his dumbfounded state. All Mr. Hatch could do was giggle softly under his breath. Its about time some one knocked Henry of his block he thought and by that he meant the egotistical chemistry teacher.

Lunch was nearly over and the girls and the girls were giving up hope. This was a stupid idea, not to mention a waste of time Videl thought annoyed. Steph sprung up like her pants were on fire. 'That's him!' she exclaimed excitedly. Videl and Eraser looked towards the place Steph was pointing but could see nobody as the crowd was thick. 'Hey wait up' yelled Steph. Gohan turned around his frown changed into a smile when he saw who it was. 'So I see you found your way around ok' he said grining. 'Yeah, the names Steph by the way' she said. She soon found herself grinning to. I guess his smile is infectious she thought. 'Oh hi, I am Goahn' he said quickly after her. 'Hey yeah.....um...I came to give this back to you' said Steph shyly looking at her feet. 'It seemed pretty personal' she continued showing him the map he gave her flipping it so he could see the other side. Gohan eyes seemed to soften. 'Thanks for bringing it back' said Gohan embarrassed wondering how many other people in the school had read it. 'No prob, see ya round' she said and with that Steph skipped back to her table.

Videl and Eraser were frustrated. They couldn't see the see who Steph was talking to, as to many people were blocking there view. Steph came back and sat down. 'Did you get a good look' she asked. 'Nah, we couldn't see' said Eraser. 'Well he just joined the cafeteria line, I point him out when he come out' she said simply. A few minutes passed 'There he is, Gohan I mean' Steph said. Videl and Eraser nearly fell out of there seats in shock. 'GOHAN! Are you serious?' exclaimed Videl. 'Its official Videl, Gohan just doesn't like you. He was quite sweet to me the other day' said Eraser. 'Why does he hate me so much?' asked Videl disappointedly. 'Oh I asked him that, he said he I quote "I hate Mr. Satan with the fiery passion of hell itself" he said that you know' Eraser said looking shocked. 'But I am not my dad!' 'Honey maybe you should tell him that' said Eraser. 'Why don't you just go talk to him' said Steph wisely. 'NO WAY, you don't go ask someone you hardly know the reasons he has for despising you based on something Eraser said' Videl exclaimed. 'Hey I am a reliable source' puffed Eraser earning "I don't think so" looks from Steph and Videl. The bell sounded. Videl looked down she hadn't had a chance to finish her lunch. 'Oh dam less thinking/talking more eating' she mumbled. Quickly she scoffed down her food nearly choking in the process, jumping up and ran to her next class.
