Hi everyone. I got so many wonderful reviews since putting up chapter five.
Ten actually. So I decided to make sure I updated asap. There are some
major, and I mean MAJOR developments in this chapter, and I hope you'll all
enjoy.
********************************************************
I can't believe it's already been a month since I found out I was pregnant, and I still haven't told Goku. Horrible, I know, but I just haven't been able to make myself go back to that house, which Goku may have even abandoned by now since he had always been comftorable just sleeping outside.
How can I go back there, to the place that all of my childhood dreams had shattered?
Yet, I know I have to, and soon. My work for Verde and the girls has been becoming far too difficult, and I'm sure that Verde doesn't need to have a baby here, crying during all hours of the night. I'm going to need Goku's help, whether I want to see him or not.
Ever since I found out I've spent just about all my free time thinking of my baby, how my baby is going to change my life, and Goku's. Goku is going to be involved with this child if I have anything to say about it. This baby deserves two parents. It isn't the baby's fault it's mother had been stupid enough to marry someone that didn't love her.
I don't know how, but I know that I'm going to have a little boy. It's just this feeling I have. I can see him already, his fathers good looks, but with brains to back them up. He'll be smart, I'll make sure of that. When I had been looking for a job, I had been restricted by my education. That is not something that I am going to let happen to my son.
I can't believe this. I don't know how I'm going to tell Goku about his baby, yet I'm already planning the kid's future. I guess that's just the way I am. I've always been better at dreaming of the future than dealing with the present. But that's just me. I know I don't have worry about the distant future as much, I have time to make it what I want it to be.
I sighed as I placed my hand on my stomach and rubbed gently. I need to tell Goku, soon. I can't just stay here, so I'm going to have to try to get Goku to help me. I didn't like the idea of going to him for help, but I don't have much of a choice.
"Hello ChiChi," Verde said walking in.
"Hi Verde," she answered and smiled at him. Verde has been so supportive of me since I told him about this. He's even done some of the housework when I was tired or upset. He's been really great, I don't know how I'm ever going to thank him.
"Um, ChiChi. Would you come with me? There's something I want to talk about with you. I thought we'd talk about it over some food. How do you feel about Los Meriachis?"
"Sounds great," I answered happily. I haven't eaten out in a while. It would be nice to have a change of scenery. Goku's POV
I finally did it. I finally got Krillen to get out of my hair, he's been gone for the past week, and I've started to actually get on with my life. I still don't eat as much as I should, and I've started sleeping outside, near the trees, but I have gotten better.
I basically try to live as I did before the tournament, just eat, sleep, and train. Not worrying about anything else. Life is so simple when you live like that. You always know what your in for, no surprises.
But I realize I'll never truly move on until ChiChi and I have gotten those papers signed. Krillen had explained to me what it takes to get an annulment, and there are some papers ChiChi and I have to sign for it to be official. It hurts to just think about it, but it is something I have to do, so that's what I have planned for today. Find ChiChi, and sign those papers.
I finished my modest helping of fish and stood up. If I'm going to do this, I want to get it over with. So I started to fly, searching for her ki. ChiChi was normally easy to find. Other than Roshi, Krillen, Tien and Chioutzu, she's one of the strongest people on Earth. But for some reason I can't sense her.
So I decided to head toward that city she had been so close to the last time I saw her. Then I could feel her, she seemed to have her ki lower than she normally would. and it felt different, as if she has two kis. But how was that possible?
I flew toward her ki, and landed behind a wall. She was sitting with some guy, talking with him. She was smiling. Kami she looked so beautiful when she smiled. No, NO! I had to stop, I came here for a reason. Her friend would just have to.
I froze. ChiChi had just scooted out of her seat, giving me a clear view, to see her swelling stomach that she was rubbing affectionately. Wasn't that what was supposed to happen when A woman was going to have a baby? Is that my baby?
I stood there, and continued to watch, so I could wait until she wasn't with that guy anymore. I need to talk to ChiChi.
ChiChi's POV
"What is it you wanted to talk about Verde?" I asked, sitting comftorably.
He smiled at me, and I smiled back. He was behaving strangely. maybe he realized he doesn't want a lazy pregnant woman to be slacking off on the job. Yeah, that's probably it. He seems nervous, he probably doesn't really want to get rid of me.
"ChiChi, I know things are hard for you with the baby. And I've been having these feelings. I want to help you, be with you. If you'll let me, I want to love you."
I sat there frozen. What was going on? Verde was definitely being strange. He wants to love me? This doesn't make sense. My confusion must have shown on my face, because he decided to continue.
"I cared for you before I found out, and I'm telling you now because I think we should be together before the baby gets here. Your child is going to need a father, a real father. Not some fighter that leaves at the drop of a hat."
Then, before I could react, he leaned toward me, his hand cupping my face gently, and he kissed me. It was a gentle, caring kiss, yet full of emotion at the same time. I panicked. Why was this happening? Why did this happen after I had fallen for Goku?
It's fitting, isn't it? I find a man that cares for me and wants to be with me, despite the fact that I'm carrying another man's child, and I'm still in love with Goku. Goku, the sweet naïve guy that doesn't want me.
Wait, is he still kissing me? And am I kissing him back? My hands went to his chest, and I pushed him away, shaking my head. "Verde, no."
His face fell. I couldn't help but feel sorry for him, but I can't do this.
"I'm sorry, but I can't. I still love Goku, even if he doesn't feel the same way. I don't care if I never get to be with another man, I wouldn't feel right about it. And you don't deserve another woman that wants someone else. You need someone that returns your feelings, and that isn't going to be me."
Verde looked down. "You love him that much?"
I nodded sadly. I wished I didn't. I want to be happy, not spend my life wanting someone I can't have.
"Alright. I understand, I suppose. What are you planning to do? I mean, considering the baby and all?" Verde asked.
"I'm not sure. I need to talk to Goku about it. I'll probably end up with my Dad for a while, Goku and I will probably end up taking turns with the baby. I'm just going to have to play by ear I guess."
Verde nodded. "Come on, let's go home."
Goku's POV
I had continued to watch, until he had. kissed her. I had expected her to end the kiss, but she didn't. she had let it keep going, and even kissed him back! I can't describe the feeling it gave me, to see her kissing that other man.
When I saw that, I had flown away as quickly as I possibly could. It was one thing for her to leave me, but how could she leave me for that other guy. How could she? And that baby, was it his. Was it their baby?
I wiped my wet face as I flew. Then I changed direction. I couldn't go back home right now, not to the place that I had thought I would spend my life with her. Instead, I started to look for a place with that champagne stuff. I don't want to think or feel anything, and that stuff normally helps.
It didn't take long, I could smell some kind of alcohol from a great distance, and I landed at the place soon enough. But I knew I would need money. How to get it?
I stood there by the door, and then some woman walked up to me.
"Why hello there Hun. Looking to get a drink?" I looked at her, and did a double take. She definitely wasn't anything like ChiChi. With short blonde hair, green eyes, and an out fit with a really high skirt and a really low shirt, if you could call it that.
"Well yeah, but I don't have any money." I answered.
"I can fix that. And in exchange all you have to do is. spend some time with me." She pushed her chest up as she said that.
"That sure is nice of you." I said, surprised. Why was she being so nice?
"Oh, it's nothing." She said as she grabbed my arm and led me into the building. It was dark, full of people, and smelled. But it was just what I needed. She took me to the stools and sat down with me.
"What'll it be?" The guy behind the counter asked as he cleaned a glass.
"Oh, uh." What should I get, I wanted something stronger than that other stuff.
"New at this, huh?" The girl asked. When I nodded, she smiled and turned her head to the bar tender. "Two taquilas, no salt." The bar tender turned and stated to get the drinks ready. "So, tell me about yourself."
"Well, my name is Goku. I'm a fighter. and my wife recently left me for this other guy. That's why I came here for a drink."
"Oh, poor baby." She said, her hand going to my thy and rubbing it.
The drinks were set down in front of us, and I grabbed it, downing it immediately. I set the glass down and sighed. "So what's your name?"
"Well, my name is Banca." She said smiling, then sipped her drink. "Want another?"
I nodded, and she raised a finger at the guy behind the bar. He nodded and started getting another drink ready.
My head was already starting to feel lighter, more relaxed. I looked at candy, who handed something to the bartender and whispered something. She must be paying him for the drinks. I soon had my second drink, and grabbed it. "So, there anything about yourself you want to tell me?" I asked, and then raised the drink to my mouth, and drank it, all of it.
"No, not really." She said, lowering her voice. My head was swimming, maybe I shouldn't have had it so fast
"Well, thanks for the drinks, but I should go." I said, standing up.
She stood too. "I'll walk you." She wrapped an arm around me.
I was blinking rapidly, and my hand went to my head. That must be some pretty powerful stuff. The room seemed to be spinning. "No, I have a long way to go to get home. It's not exactly a place you'd want to walk to."
"Then we can go to my place." She said. "Since you don't seem to be feeling well, you shouldn't travel too far."
"Alright, I really don't feel that great." Then I just let her lead me away.
Blanca's POV
What luck to find a simply sexy man, broke outside of a bar. I could see his lean figure from all the way down the street. This guy knew how to stay in shape. So I offered to get him a couple of drinks, he'll be easy enough to play with.
Not only is he a hunk, but he's just broken up with some broad. A drunken, sad man is always eager for a quick lay. Especially when he gets something slipped into his drink.
So, Verde made his move, and Blanca has set her sights on Goku. I know people may yell at me for doing this, but it is just something that had to happen.
I want to thank Lady Sakura-Chan, Vegito, Gip-K, Carla fox, Nisha, LilianJie Gurl, Jessica C, E-Chan, Neckomoon girl, and Vashfan for reviewing chapter five.
I really liked the detailed reviews, meaning more than just writing update. So thanks, and I hope you'll all continue to give me these wonderful reviews, and soon.
