Bubbling with heat the rice cooked slowly, Chichi's small and soft hands stirring with the spoon roughly and the hot water splashing out over the shiny sides of the pan. Water soon contacted hot slate, the; liquid evaporation into the already steamy air with a loud hiss. The ox-king sat silently observing the not so happy couple that sat before him, Goku's face narrowed and contorted into a frown as the young husband watched his wife with untrusting eyes. Old and wise the usually cheery man could feel the tension between the couple, his heart sinking at the thick amounts of trouble between the two of them so early on in their marriage. Unaware of what had happened the happy father began to spill open a conversation.
"Chichi my dear you will never guess who called yesterday?" The beautiful face of his daughter turned towards him with an eager longed search for happiness reflected in her eyes. Her eyebrows rolled up in curiosity and she smiled with small curved lips.
"Who?" Sitting down next to Goku, her smile faded as he turned away from her to look at her father. The Ox-King noticed this and sent a warning glare at the young, messy haired fighter.
"Well I'm sure you remember Jerrek don't you?" Chichi nodded uncomfortably as Goku growled quietly beside her. Her small, delicate hand stroking his and holding it tight so he could not pull away. "Well my dear his parents dropped by the other day, the family is doing very well for themselves and I believe Jerrek is coming to see me tomorrow and I thought maybe you and Goku would like to join me so you can become re-united? And you Goku will just love him, much like you in many ways. He trains and likes fighting but wouldn't it be nice if you both had a close friend as a couple. You could go out together maybe."
Goku just glared with death at his father-in-law and slammed the table as he stood, slamming the front door with force and storming off to meditate in the front yard.
"What's wrong with him?" Chichi sadly eyed the door, Goku's protective and jealous nature still not dying down, the week had past slowly and her bed became colder with each lonely night. Her heart broke more with each rejection from her husband. She heard him cry at night, she heard his gasps of pain and she knew it was why she felt it too. Why a sudden rush of agony would cloud her already broken body and hurt her even more.
"He didn't sleep too well last night; he gets a bit grumpy when he is tired. Thanks for inviting us over tomorrow daddy but me and Goku have a lot of stuff set to do tomorrow. Maybe another day." The-Ox King stood with a small frown mixed among his larger smile, hugging his daughter and bidding her a good bye and kissing her lightly.
Goku was sat with his legs crossed among the sweet smelling grass, the wind blowing the tall green hairs of the earth back and forth as they swayed in union like the waves upon the sea. The old King could tell the young man was growling angrily to himself, his arms crossed with frustrating force across his broad chest and his eyes narrowed even at his father-in-law. Waving happily the huge man smiled at Goku, pleased at the small smile and wave he was given. At least the young boy was calming down. Stepping into his car he sped off to his home, the scene of his daughter and son-in-law arguing slowly vanishing behind him. It hurt him to see that the nice peaceful and loving attention between his now newly wed daughter and Goku had died to a horrifying spark of disagreement and ignoring.
The large, gallant and bright room of the Ox-Kings castle boomed with laughter as he shared stories and events with the young man before him. Jerrek really had changed, the scruffy little brat that had run around his castle at a young age was now well presented, polite and very much a gentle man. He was surprised to find he was not married, as a rich, handsome and powerful man it was shocking to find he didn't even have a girlfriend right now. They spoke of happiness and sorrow, laughter and tears. Of the many aspects of life that each family had missed whilst away from the other, it was nice to see old villagers, nice to see they found an easier and better life than what he could offer at the time. Of course as time passed on the conversation turned towards family, the Ox-King now bragging about the beautiful daughter he had, not likening the look Jerrek had on his face when he was informed of her marriage to Goku.
"I am aware of Chichi's marriage Ox-King and who could not expect it for she is a beautiful rose, so tender and graceful but so full of thorns. We have met recently and spent a few days getting to know one another. She truly is a princess of finest quality. Goku on the other hand, that brute deserves nothing of her." Jerrek had emphasis on every word he spoke, every letter he said. Angry as to how this man addressed his son-in-law the Ok-King with gritted teeth questioned the mans motives.
"What right have you got to address Goku like that. He may not be a prince or a lord but he is finer than anyone else could be to my daughter. Not only can he protect her as the strongest man on the planet but he is a loving and kind man who will give her all he can and more. He would never hurt her, he would never let her go cold or hungry and he would die for her, he would fight for her and their marriage. That boy is the worthiest man for my daughter and I would love to know why you think he isn't"
"Oh dear Sir if only you knew, if only I could tell you. But I swore to my dear angel Chichi that I wouldn't, it is far too dangerous." The Ox-King stood angrily and stepped towards a non-flinching Jerrek, his eyes a flame of anger and upset as he continued to talk through gritted teeth.
"What in the name of Kami are you talking about? She had better not be involved with you whilst she is married, I will not stand for that in my family. Now tell me the reason for this up rise and tell me fast or I shall ask HER myself."
"Ok but I tell you only to keep her safe, you must be careful as to how you solve this because Chichi, my poor broken angel, could end up broken more than she is already. I tried to stop it as soon as I found out, I tried to protect her but that husband of hers is too strong for even me. It came as a shock I mean Goku appeared to be the kindest of men, so innocent and loving but behind those doors he is a brute, an evil man who cares nothing for your daughter. I cried when I found out and I begged her to leave him, I told her how I and her loving father would care and protect her. I never thought a man like Goku could ever hit or abuse your daughter but sometimes looks are deceiving."
The Ox-King felt his heart clamp painfully as he listened to the rich young lord before him. Anger rising in his blood and his face slowly glowing a dusted red.
"What proof do you have? I have never seen a cut or bruise on my daughters face…"
"Goku is not stupid my sire. The injuries are hidden amongst her thick clothing, amongst her purposefully thick clothing. I stood up to him, I tried to protect her and look what he did to me, he threatened to hurt her more if I told which is why I have kept quiet for a week, the longest and most painful week of my life."
Jerrek had barely finished his sentence before the room was emptied of Chichi's large father, a large laughter filled smirk cast upon the blondes face. The Ok-King however sped along the dirt roads towards his daughter's home, his car banging and choking as the engine struggled to go nay faster than it already was. He would be dammed to the demon filled hells if he would let a man he had trusted hurt his precious little baby, if he would let Goku betray him like this and if he would let the warrior disgrace the teachings of Roshi and Gohan. The boy would pay for this, for betraying everyone like this. It was just so unbelievable that the happy and innocent young man was capable of this. Somewhere along his journey the young boy must have become confused, someone must have told or taught him wrong and it was now up to him to teach him it was wrong.
The little home seemed almost heaven like in its peacefulness, the garden was empty as the brakes screeched at the sudden demand to work, and his cars exhaust emitting thick black smoke as the engine struggled to combust properly. The bonnet was mere millimetres from the outside of the house walls, mere millimetres from crashing but he didn't car as he slammed his car door so hard the vehicle rolled over onto its top. The front door was pulled of its hinges and he was met with the shocked expressions of a hugging couple. Chichi's eyes alive with a flame of humiliation and anger as she glared at her father. Goku's filled with confusion and worry as the large man stepped with death in mind towards him, the large hands of his father-in-law clutching his shirt cuff and lifting off the floor, one hand pressed dangerously close to his neck.
"YOU DARE TO BETRAY ME, BETRAY YOUR TEACHER AND YOUR GRANDFATHER! I'LL TEACH YOU WHAT HAPPENS TO ANYMAN THAT DARES HARM MY DAUGHTER"
"Ok-King gasp what the hell gasp are you talking about" Goku's hands wrestled to loosen his wife's fathers hands that sat tighter around his neck. The breath inside him starting to fade as Goku became angry. In mere seconds Chichi watched as her husband was thrown from her angry fathers hands across the room and onto the kitchen table. It snapped under the force and Goku let a loud yelp escape his defensive shield. Chichi shrieked and ran to him, holding his hands as she helped his sit up and brushed him off.
"Daddy what are you thinking, how you dare come barging into my home and throw my husband around…" Chichi's deadly shout was cut of by her fathers.
"This man is no longer your husband, I will not stand around and let him hurt you, let him bruise your skin whilst there are men that would never even think of hitting you"
"Hitting me?" Chichi turned to look at a questioning Goku, her eyes small and worried as her husband stood and walked over to her, ignoring the glares and growls form the large King.
"I don't hit Chichi Sir, I never have and I never will. I'd kill myself if I ever even thought of it. I would never dream of hurting her like that, bruising her or making her bleed. It's my job to protect her from that, not deliver it to her." Goku stood watching the King before him, his heart lower at the distrust this man had in him, at how he could ever think he would hurt the lovely flower that was his wife.
"Then why DID you attack Jerrek? He told how he was protecting her from you!" Chichi gasped loudly and watched the once gentle and caring face of her husband contort into an evil and dangerous anger, his fist clenched and the muscles in his body expanding with power. The Ox-King stepped back like his daughter as the young warrior stomped his foot and threw his arms angrily in the air.
"THAT BASTARD DARES TO DO THIS TO ME. DARES TO CHALLENGE ME! I'LL SHOW HIM NOT TO MESS WITH SON-GOKU!" The only movement either of Goku's family saw was the open and close of the door. Chichi raced outside to grab her husband as he prepared to fly. Her small hands clutched his larger, more muscled arms tightly. Rubbing them gently she tried to sooth him.
"Goku calm down, it's ok. Just relax, ok..."
"Chichi I'll only relax once I have taught that man to just leave us alone. I hate him; I'm fed up off…"
"GOKU GET INSIDE THAT HOUSE THIS INSTANT." No thought crossed his head after that. It was amazing how scared he was of Chichi, how she had every inch of power over him. No matter how hard he tried he would always succumb to her.
"Chichi cheated on you? Jerrek then tried to get me to force her to leave so he and my daughter could be together. Chichi I am disappointed in you, how could you betray Goku like that. How could you disgrace yourself like that?"
"Mr Ok-King Sir I know you're angry at her and so am I but I believe her when she says she didn't really want it. I love her and I just want to make things right again. I know she betrayed me and I know she cheated but after everything she does for me each day I think she deserves a second chance."
"Well I have a young blonde to talk to and as her husband I suppose it is your choice how you deal with her betrayal and so I will leave you to deal with this." Standing he shut the door, Chichi standing with tears on her rosy cheeks to enter the room her father and her husband had spoke in. The doorway she had chosen to lean on to listen now not supporting her sorrow filled body. Goku stood and walked towards her, holding her weak body to him and supporting her. He held her hands passionately and soothed her crying body with silent shushes and light kisses.
"Do you forgive me Goku?" Her eyes shine with hope, filled with waiting tears that where not yet defined as happy or sad until she heard his words.
"I love you Chichi and I know no matter what I did in life that you would forgive me. Please just promise me you will never allow anyone to come between us like this. Ever." She nodded enthusiastically and held him tighter as he leant towards her. The lips she had missed so much now gentle moving with hers and that fire she had once felt burned again within her. His large hands now massaged her body with a yearned for passion as they embraced her tightly.
"I'm so sorry Goku. I love you and I promise this will never happen again. I love you." She kissed him again, gently on the lips and cheeks as he held her close to him. His body now craving for more than just kisses as his passions for his beautiful wife began to rise.
