Everyone, I owe you an apology. This chapter should have been up way earlier. And I usually respond to your reviews as soon as I can, but the weekend was so busy I had to focus on my homework and stuff. Sorry! I'll try and get back to you all by the end of tomorrow. In any case, I hope you enjoy my next chapter!
Last time: Oh, right! I forgot: Dad's not home. Never mind!

Dear Diary,
Everything's returned back to normal, I guess. I put all my clothes away and went straight to Laranzo this morning to tell him the good news.
He was just as happy as I was about the trip to Guanan. "I'm sure you'll have a great time, even if it is with Vegeta," he said with a laugh. Of course, I laughed too, but added that Vegeta wasn't as bad as going with some people. Really, he's not a bad guy at all. Just a little…busy at times, I guess.
Well, as Laranzo and I were talking, this woman came into the room. She was the prettiest woman I've ever seen. She had a full head of blonde hair that danced around her well-defined face. I even think that her eyes were bluer than mine, if that's possible. She was easily a good five inches taller than me and wore a beautiful tailored dress suit. As I stared at her, she exclaimed, "Laranzo!" and rushed to his side, planting a soft kiss on his cheek.
"Hello, Prittania," he said brightly. "This is one of the family's servents, Bulma."
My jaw dropped. He introduced me as a servant? What was this all about? Prittania didn't seem to mind, though.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Bulma. And may I say, you are very beautiful." She smiled at me honestly, with her wide blue eyes all but begging for acceptance. What could I say?
"Thank you," I murmured. "It is an honor to meet you." Bowing low, as a good SERVANT should, I excused myself from the room and rushed out into the hallway. Three guesses about who I ran into.
"Watch where you're going, woman!" Vegeta barked at me.
I was definitely NOT in the mood for his attitude, so I spat back with unusual ferocity, "Bite me, dickhead!"
It was then that I realized Vegeta had not been alone in the hallway. He was being followed by another man, clearly an ambassador as shown by the seal on his sleeve. The man raised an eyebrow and my face flushed.
"Excuse me, gentlemen," I said with the most respect I could muster. This was totally not my day.
Bulma
Dear Diary,
I've come to terms with it now. It's inevitable that Laranzo marries her. Why can't I be happy just for once in my life? I thought I had found the perfect man, but he was taken away from me. What's wrong with me? What have I done to deserve this?
When I go back to Guanan, I'm going to find a job in the city and never come back to this place. All it holds are bad memories and malicious people.
Okay, so Chichi and Goku and Krillen aren't that bad. And Daddy's okay, too. I hate to admit it, but I don't hate Prittania…well, Princess Prittania. She's only had good things to say to me so far. I could never hate Laranzo, either. The King and Queen are nice enough.
Now I've gotten to the core. Aha! It's Vegeta. He's so mean to me.
Well, not even that. Sometimes, I feel that he likes me, sometimes I feel something that resembles friendship. And then there are the times when I want to kick him in the shin and step on his face…with my pumps on.
Why do I feel this way? What's wrong with me? To think that I'm going to Guanan with him is just plain insanity! Yet here I am.
Uh oh. The phone.
B.B.
I'm back now. Speak of the devil, it was Vegeta. He called me so we could meet and arrange the plans for Guanan. Whatever that means.
Tomorrow is the meeting. I'm going to bed now.
Bulma
So…I guess Bulma's finally realizing that Laranzo is engaged. That took only…what, a couple of weeks? Jeez.
Heiress2thethrone: (sniggers) Sometimes she's just so dense!
DBZ Angel: I know!
Star: What did you think, Trunksgurl09 and Sabudabu? (looks behind her and sees both of them sleeping on either side of Trunks) Some people are just sad…. (shakes head in shame)
ChopPrincess: Hate to interrupt, but I'm done with Veggie's makeover! (every awake person clamors to see how Vegeta looks all done up)
DBZ Angel: Wow, he's kinda pretty, isn't he?
Vegeta: (stirs and opens eyes) What's going on here?
Star: (thinking quickly) Did you know that you sleepwalk? We watched you the whole time. You gave yourself an entire makeover!
Vegeta: (sits up) WHAAAAT! (rushes to mirror and sees his face, foundation and all) NOOOOOO! What did I do?
ChopPrincess: Look! You painted your toenails like a LADY! I love the shade, by the way. Where'd you get it? (Vegeta looks at his hot pink toes, screams and runs around like a madman)
Veggiesbabygirl: (walks out of closet) What's going on here? (spots Vegeta) Oh my God…Vegeta, come here. I've got some stuff that'll get that right off. (Vegeta sniffles and walks over)
Heiress2thethrone: Aw, you're no fun!
Star: Dang, I was just getting my camera ready…well, anyways, please review!
