Chapter 1 – We did it!
"Videl Satan," the principal announced into the podium. Videl walked towards the superintendent, who gave her a diploma and shook her hand quickly and mindlessly. She glanced down at the envelope and walked back to her seat with the other students.
"Gohan Son," the principal spoke again. Gohan walked with that happy-go-lucky grin on his face as he always did. Videl smirked at the excitement he had when he received his diploma. He came back and sat down next to her. They were seated in alphabetical order and oddly enough, it put her next to him.
"Well, we did it!" he said as he stood next to her, waiting for their line to finish so they could sit down.
"Yea, we never expected YOU to graduate," Videl said playfully.
"Guess I proved you all wrong," Gohan said, before he sat down and respectfully enjoyed the rest of the ceremony.
Later on, all the graduates stood outside in the sizeable courtyard to take pictures. Chi-Chi spotted Videl and started gleaming with happiness. She ran over and embraced her excitedly, being careful not to knock her cap off her head.
"Congratulations dear! How does it feel," she asked.
"Feels great," Videl said, as she forced a smile.
"Now don't you go leaving, I need to get a picture of you with my son as soon as I track him down," she said laughing as she walked away to look for him.
Videl laughed to herself. That woman always cracked her up.
"Videl," A voice screamed. She looked to see it was Carrie, her father's girlfriend. He constantly cheated on Carrie but of course, what could she do about it?
"Hi Carrie," Videl said.
"Wow! It's so great! You Graduated," she said.
"Yes…yes I did," Videl said, walking away. She hated her father's disrespect towards her mother's memory. All he did was see girl after girl. And they were getting younger and younger each day. Carrie was a year older than she was. She missed her mother so much, but it was so hard to grieve when her father didn't even seem to care.
"Hey Videl! Wait up," a voice called after her. She knew that voice. It was Gohan.
"Gohan! We did it," she said as she hugged him. "Thank you so much for making these four years great. And thanks for teaching me how to fly!"
"Oh it was no problem, Videl. I enjoyed your company. I just hope I get to train with you sometime in the future and help you get stronger."
"I would love to train with you over the summer," Videl said.
"Great then it's…"
"Kids! Kids! Let me get a photo!" Chi-Chi interrupted madly.
Videl giggled. She absolutely loved Chi-Chi's personality. She moved closer to Gohan as he put his arm around her and smiled.
"Perfect…" Chi-Chi thought. "My future daughter-in-law with my beautiful son."
