Monday:
"Ok…are you ready to go?" Trunks asked, looking at Momo.
"Yeah…" Momo said softly.
"Do you know where we're going?" Trunks asked calmly.
"To see Dr. Umm…?" Momo asked, looking up at Trunks.
"Dr. Draya; that's correct… Are you going to be a good girl today?" Trunks asked seriously.
"Yes daddy." Momo said, still looking up at Trunks.
"Good girl. Now…you can only bring one thing with; it's either your teddy bear or your blanket." Trunks said seriously, but at the same time calmly.
"Mmmm…" Momo made a noise; Trunks thought she was going to start crying, but she set her blanket on the chair and held her teddy bear tightly.
"Good girl; now say goodbye to grandpa." Trunks said as he picked her up.
"Bye-bye grampa…" Momo said softly, with her thumb in her mouth.
"See you both later." Vegeta said as they walked out of the house.
Trunks got Momo and her teddy bear in her car seat nice and tight before getting in himself and driving off…after buckling up.
Roughly five minutes into the drive, Momo fell asleep, holding onto her teddy bear.
Fifteen Minutes Later:
"Ok…" Trunks sighed as he got out of the car.
"Daddy?" Momo asked confused, waking up from her little nap.
"Hi baby; we're at the doctors now. Do you want up or do you want to walk today?" Trunks asked, releasing Momo from her car seat.
"Walk?" Momo asked sliding off her seat, onto the floor and out the door.
"What is the rule?" Trunks asked after he shut the door; she reached her little hand up to take his.
"Good girl; ok, let's go." Trunks said as they started walking into the clinic.
Once they got inside, Momo let go of Trunks's hand and started clinging to his legs. The clinic was packed; it became too overwhelming for Momo.
"They're certainly busy today. You have your bear?" Trunks asked, to which Momo nodded and put both her arms in the air; he picked her up and she buried her face in his shoulder and shook.
Five Minutes Later:
"I can help whoever's next, down here." A receptionist said when it was finally time for Trunks to get Momo checked in.
"How may I help you?" The receptionist asked kindly.
"I have Momo Briefs here to see Dr. Draya." Trunks said shifting Momo a little.
"Ok…and you are?" The receptionist asked, looking at Trunks.
"I'm her father, Trunks Briefs; her mother isn't in her life." Trunks said calmly; he knew she had to ask these questions; she was just doing her job.
"Ok. What is Momo's birthday?" The receptionist asked calmly.
"December 6, 2016." Trunks said right away; he knew each of his kids birthdays by heart. It also helps that he has their names and birthdays tattooed on his chest, just above his heart.
"Insurance, address and phone number for her and you all the same?" The receptionist asked, looking up at Trunks.
"Yes." Trunks answered calmly.
"Ok… She's all checked in. Dr. Draya is on the second floor; you may head up now. Have a nice day." The receptionist said with a smile.
"Thank you and you have a nice day as well." Trunks said with a smile as he started walking to the stairs.
"Ni day…" Momo mumbled into Trunks's shoulder.
"Momo, that's so nice of you to say…even if the lady couldn't hear you." Trunks said with a smile as he started up the stairs.
They walked through the door that led to the second floor waiting room and to Trunks's and Momo's relief, there were way less people up there. Asides from them, there were a total of five other people plus the people behind the large desk.
"Do you want to play with the toys while we wait?" Trunks asked calmly as he looked around.
"No…" Momo said softly, rubbing her face in his shoulder.
"Someone's tired. I suppose nap time is delayed today because of this." Trunks sighed as he sat down with Momo on his lap.
After a few seconds Momo started bouncing up and down on Trunks's knee; she only started giggling when Trunks started bouncing his knee up and down; he, of course held onto her waist so that she wouldn't fall.
Five Minutes Later:
"All done. My knee and leg are tired." Trunks said as he stopped bouncing his knee.
"K." Momo said as she leaned back into his stomach.
It was then that Trunks saw someone he really didn't want to see, walk out of the exam rooms area and into the waiting room.
"Trunks, is that you?" Miki asked, somewhat shocked.
"Yeah, it's me…. What are you doing here?" Trunks asked, not really caring.
"I had my yearly physical. What brings you here?" Miki asked, looking at Trunks…until she noticed Momo; she was playing with her fingers while Trunks held onto her.
"Is that her?" Miki asked calmly.
"Yes; this is Momo; she has her yearly doctor's appointment. She's very shy." Trunks explained as Momo stood up on his leg and hid her face in his shoulder when she noticed Miki looking at her.
"She looks just like you when you were her age, doesn't she? Except for the hair; that's a little lighter. So, this is who the father is, I'm assuming." An older woman said, walking up from behind Miki.
"And I'm guessing he's also the one who's had our grandchild…" An older man said, standing next to the older woman.
"Mom, dad; what are you doing here? How did you even know I was here?" Miki asked in shock.
"We came here to talk to you; get you to come back home. We never expected to meet our grandchild-granddaughter. As for how we found you; your younger brother told us." The woman said with a smile as she started walking forwards.
"Of course he did; he is a suckup after all…" Miki mumbled, causing her parents to give her a look.
"Why did you keep her away from us? Why did you give her to that man?" The man asked, looking directly at Trunks, glaring at him the entire time; Trunks just sat there…starting to become annoyed.
"You stay away from me and her! She's not your grandchild; she never was. I never wanted her in the first place; I tried getting her aborted and when you refused, I waited until I was of age…but I was too far into the pregnancy. So after that I did everything I could think of to miscarry; but nothing seemed to work. My last attempt, I went into labor early. And, I gave her dad full custody because I sure as hell didn't want you to get your grubby, OVER controlling hands on her and ruin her life like you ruined mine! Stay the hell away from her!" Miki yelled, getting the receptionists' attention.
"What do mean we ruined your life? We did nothing but make sure you had everything and achieved everything you decided to fail at. You got knocked up at sixteen and then decided to give the baby up without our consent. You're the one who ruined your own life. Now, if you'd excuse us; we'd like our perfect grandchild." The lady said simply, walking towards Trunks again; he stood up immediately.
"Is there a problem here?" One of the receptionists asked, walking over with security guards.
"No; no problem here. We're just trying to get our granddaughter from this man." The older man said calmly.
"That man, is her father. I am biologically her mother; I didn't want her. He did; so I gave him full custody. I also don't want my parents anywhere near her; they're a danger to her. If they get a hold of her they will lock her in a small, cold room, feed her twice a day, every two or three days…if she's lucky and make her stand out in the rain or cold or overly hot days if she's done something wrong or even made a mistake. That's what she did to my two older sisters, one older brother and me when we were living at home. The only one who didn't get any of that treatment was my two younger brothers; they got treated like kings. Now I understand why my brother and sisters left when they did. Oh, and because of what I did while pregnant with her, she's far from perfect mom, dad; she has autistic." Miki explained, becoming incredibly upset; but became more upset when her mother slapped her, hard across the face.
"That's because you, your brother and sisters were all ungrateful simpletons while your younger brothers were perfect angels! And what do you mean she's got autistic?" The mother asked, slapping Miki across the face.
"She HAS autism; she IS autistic." Trunks explained, emphasizing "has" and "is" so that Miki and her parents would hopefully understand.
"How the hell can she have autism?! She's part of our bloodline! Venarians are the superior beings compared to you humans!" The father yelled.
"Ha! Well, now that's funny. I mean it; I haven't had a good laugh like that in years." Vegeta said, appearing behind everyone.
"This is a personal family matter; but out!" The mother yelled, furious.
"Well, I'm family. Are we saying names?" Vegeta said and then asked Trunks.
"No, we're not; I do not want my parents knowing anything about them." Miki said seriously, causing her parents to glare at her again.
"And we Venarians are superior to you humans." The father said proudly.
"Ok. And, I think it's funny that you think we're human." Vegeta said calmly.
"Dad, what are you doing here?" Trunks asked calmly as Momo clung to him.
"If you're not human, then what are you?" The father asked in a suspicious tone.
"We are Saiyans. And you left these papers on the table; you said you needed them, didn't you?" Vegeta asked, handing Trunks a pack of paper.
"Shoot; thanks." Trunks said, taking the paper.
"Yep." Vegeta said simply, staring at Miki and her parents, who were very pale looking at the mention of them being Saiyans.
"Saiyans?" Both the mother and father asked in shock.
"That's correct." Vegeta said simply.
"You laid with a Saiyan?!" The mother screeched, horrified before passing out.
"Well…at the time I didn't know he was Saiyan; I only just found out a few days ago. What does that have to do with anything?" Miki asked, looking at her father.
"They're our mortal enemies." The father said, backing away; his wife was just coming too.
"We used to be enemies; my dad made a treaty with your king…whoever that is.
"My dad would've never done that!" The mother yelled in a panic.
"Well, he did; I was there. I guess she's a princess on both sides." Vegeta said calmly.
"That thing is not a princess; that thing is an abomination! Keep that thing away from us!" The parents yelled angrily.
"Abomnation?" Momo asked softly, tears in her eyes; she had been called that before by random people in stores and such. They'd say how cute she was and all…until they somehow found out she had autism.
"No baby; you're perfect just the way you are." Trunks said, bouncing her a little, while rubbing her back.
The parents were about to say something, but were interrupted.
"I think it's time for you to leave." The security guard said seriously, escorting the parents out; Miki left on her own, saying how sorry she was.
"No child is a mistake; every child is a blessing. Don't you ever forget that." A receptionist said seriously as she brought Momo a sucker…well she brought her a few so that Momo could pick the one she liked; she chose red-cherry.
"Momo Briefs?" A nurse called from one of the side doors.
"I'll see you at home, later." Vegeta said heading out.
"See you later." Trunks said before walking over to the nurse.
"How are you today?" The nurse asked with a friendly smile.
"Could be better…" Trunks sighed as Momo held her teddy bear close with one hand and the sucker in the other hand.
"Aww…what's wrong?" The nurse asked, genuinely concerned.
"Momo's mother's parents…" Trunks sighed as they walked down a hall.
"I see…kind of. Well, if we could just get her height and weight." The nurse said kindly, trying not to be nosey.
"Ok Momo, I have to set you down now. Don't worry; I'll be right here; I'm not going anywhere. Ok?" Trunks asked, setting Momo down as she clung to his shirt.
"K…" Momo said softly, unsure and scared.
"Ok; just stand up against this giant ruler. Oh. No, sweetheart; you have to have your back to the ruler." The nurse said when Momo stood, facing the stadiometer.
"Ok, stand perfectly still, straight and flat on your feet." The nurse said as she started lowering the top of the stadiometer down to the top of Momo's head.
"Very good. Now if we can get your weight." The nurse said as she led Momo across the way to the scale.
"Now just hold very still please." The nurse said as Momo stepped on the scale, swaying back and forth at first.
"Ok; all done." The nurse said, writing everything down.
"I do good daddy?" Momo asked, tugging on Trunks's pant's leg while looking at the floor.
"You did fantastic." Trunks said with a smile, causing Momo to look up at him with a big smile.
"Ok; we're all the way at the end of the hall on the right; room 24." The nurse said, as she stepped to the side.
"Do you want to walk to the room?" Trunks asked, looking at Momo.
"Yeah…" Momo said softly, lifting her hand to take Trunks's.
About halfway to the room, Momo fell over. But, she didn't cry; she got back up and lifted her arms to be picked up.
Once in the room the nurse got Momo's blood pressure, heart rate, pulse and temperature.
"Ok, that's it for me; Dr. Draya will be in just a few minutes." The nurse said with a smile.
"Ok, thanks. Have a nice day." Trunks said calmly as he held onto Momo as she leaned forwards.
"Thank you; you too." The nurse said before leaving.
'This can't be good…the nurse didn't say what any of her vitals were. The nurses have always said what her vitals were…' Trunks thought to himself as Momo sat up straight and made a face.
"Momo, what's wrong?" Trunks asked when he saw her become ridged; she then lurched forwards and started making retching noises.
"Oh no…hold on." Trunks said, standing up right away; he got her to the sink and she threw up everything she drank this morning.
Knock. Knock.
"Hello…oh; what's going on here?" Dr. Draya said and then asked when she seen Trunks holding onto Momo as she held onto the sink and finished throwing up.
"Sorry about this…I didn't know where else to let her throw up. I mean, there's the garbage can; but it's kind of hard to hold a child and keep the lid open…" Trunks said as Momo stopped throwing up.
"Oh no, it's perfectly fine; I completely understand…especially since the garbage is turned around." Dr. Draya said as she walked over to the cupboards; she pulled out a dixie cup and filled it with water.
"Here, you go. But drink it slowly." Dr. Draya said, handing Momo the cup once Trunks sat back down with her.
After Momo finished her water, Dr. Draya sat down, opened her laptop and then retook Momo's vitals.
"So…asides from that, how are you and your family doing?" Dr. Draya asked, looking at Trunks.
"Well, Momo is terrified of elevators and penguins now… Yeah. My mom took her and her brothers to an aquatics center where they were trapped in an elevator after it malfunctioned and shut down about four months ago. There just so happened to be a guy in a penguin suit on the elevator with them. For some reason it just freaked her out and she's been afraid of penguins ever since. And she refuses to go to the aquatic center; if we take her near there she has a panic attack. Her brothers are fine; Knickers still acts older than he actually is…until it comes to Leo. Leo is good, but is starting to test my patience for whatever reason. All of a sudden he's unhappy with having a sister. Oh, and Momo's mother popped up and contacted me; she wants nothing to do with Momo; she even tried to abort and force a miscarriage when she was pregnant with her. We just met her parents; that was a hoot." Trunks explained, covering Momo's ears for the last part.
"Wow…that's a lot. Well…ever since I've known you and your kids, you've always done what you thought was best for them; and you have. I will say that Knickers is very mature, wise and even smart for his age; I don't think he'll ever change. Don't worry about Leo; it's just a phase and he'll get over it eventually. They're both good big brothers. Now for Momo…I've got some bad news for you…" Dr. Draya said, giving her opinion before becoming serious.
"What's wrong?" Trunks asked right away as Momo leaned against him.
"So, as you saw, I retook all her vitals. It's not that I don't trust my nurse; with what they currently are, I just wanted to make sure. When I saw her five months ago, her blood pressure was two points low…on both sides; but everything else was normal. So, because of that, I didn't see a cause to worry. Today, however, her blood pressure is 65/33; it's dropped; and it's not good. Now, the normal blood pressure for her age is between 80/50-110/80. Her pulse, which should be between 80-120, is at 60. Now, that's not always terrible; she could just be inactive or really sick…which seems to be correct, seeing as she has a fever of 102.3. Can I ask how much she's eating and drinking on a normal daily basis?" Dr. Draya asked, looking at Trunks.
"Normally she eats just fine: breakfast, a few cookies, lunch, randomly snacks on fruits snacks, granola bars, cookies, doughnuts (if we have any) or goldfish, dinner and then a piece of cake or cupcake or whatever we have for desert. For drinks…she drinks two cups of orange juice for breakfast, two cups of juice for lunch and two cups of milk for dinner and several cups of water throughout the day." Trunks explained calmly.
"Does she drink any type of soda?" Dr. Draya asked, writing everything down.
"I let her drink a bottle of sprite or rootbeer Friday nights for family game and movie night. No, my parents don't let her have soda either. Or at least they'd better not be." Trunks explained and then said seriously.
"Ok…well then she should be gaining weight; she's lost two pounds since last month…so that puts her at 30lbs. But on a good note, she grew a little. Last time she was here she was 2'6"; she's now 2'10.5". So there's that. But anyways, I'd like to check her ears, throat, eyes, heart and lungs. So, if you could bring her over to the examination table." Dr. Draya said calmly.
Trunks did as he was told and carried Momo over to the table and held her hand as Dr. Draya did everything she needed.
"Does your tummy hurt at all?" Dr. Draya asked, looking at Momo.
"Yeah…" Momo said softly.
"Can you tell me where?" Dr. Draya asked kindly.
"Ebywhere." Momo said, looking down.
"Baby, why didn't you say anything?" Trunks asked calmly, looking at Momo.
"No wan you be mad." Momo said softly.
"I wouldn't ever be mad at you for not feeling well." Trunks said seriously as he gently rubbed her cheek with his thumb.
"Ok sweetie, can you please lie down so I can check your tummy?" Dr. Draya asked as she got a new pair of gloves.
Trunks helped Momo lie down before Dr. Draya got there and lifted up her to reveal her stomach; Momo held on tightly to her teddy bear.
"Ok, tell me if it hurts when I push down." Dr. Draya said as she started rubbing and lightly pushing on her stomach; Momo made painful noises and faces in almost every place except one.
"Yeah…that's what I thought as well…" Dr. Draya sighed as she looked down at the floor.
"What's wrong?" Trunks asked immediately concerned.
"Her heartbeat is also low… I'm not a hundred percent sure, but I'm pretty sure she needs to be admitted into the hospital; I believe she has the stomach bug that's been going around…and appendicitis." Dr. Draya explained, but was interrupted by Trunks and Momo.
"What's that on her stomach? Momo, baby, what's wrong?" Trunks asked when he seen that Momo's stomach started turning red and slightly bumpy; it then turned into concern when Momo started wheezing and having a hard time breathing.
Dr. Draya knew that this was an allergic reaction. But to what? Then it hit her…
"Was my nurse wearing latex gloves?" Dr. Draya asked as she got an epipen from one of the cupboards.
"I believe so; why do you ask?" Trunks asked as he held onto Momo.
"Has Momo ever been allergic to latex?" Dr. Draya asked as she pushed Momo's skirt up a little and placed the epipen on Momo's upper thigh and pushed.
Boy, did Momo scream and start crying.
"Not that I know of; she's always playing with those rubber bouncy balls and such and is just fine." Trunks said as Dr. Draya made an emergency call down to the EMTs.
"What about balloons?" Dr. Draya asked seriously.
"Umm…Leo just turned six; we had a party for him. Momo was playing with a few balloons; she seemed fine. She would cough every now and then; but almost everyone was; we were outside and pollin was everywhere." Trunks explained quickly.
"Well…I hate to tell you this, but Momo is severely allergic to certain latex items; such as latex gloves, balloons, probably condoms and other latex items like those… EMT's are on their way up; if you need to call someone, do so. I know you know what an epipen is; so I don't have to explain what I just did. You've had to use them a few times before, haven't you?" Dr. Draya asked calmly.
"Yeah…she's allergic to a lot of different things." Trunks said thinking about everything his children are allergic to before calling his dad.
Knickers was allergic to bee stings, amoxicillin, morphine, codeine and avocados.
Leo was allergic to horses, cows, elephants, goats, llamas, amoxicillin and avocados.
Momo was allergic to bee stings, horses, all types of dandelions, amoxicillin, codeine, morphine, sulfa, prednisone, penicillin, regular aspirin, all types of shellfish, pears, pineapples, coconuts, avocados, passion fruit, dragon fruit, figs, papaya and now latex…this child just can't get a break.
"Hello?" Vegeta asked on his end.
"Are you still near the clinic by any chance?" Trunks asked right away.
"I'm at that fast food place down the street; why?" Vegeta asked right away, hearing the urgency in Trunks's voice.
"How did you get here? Did you drive?" Trunks asked right away.
"No…I flew. What's going on?" Vegeta said seriously and then asked, slightly annoyed.
"Ok…can you either come up to room 24 on the second floor or grab my car and meet me and Momo at the hospital?" Trunks asked right away.
"What's going on; what happened? Did her mother and her parents come back?" Vegeta asked right away.
"No…Momo is very sick; more so than usual. And as it would turn out, she's allergic to latex…so EMTs are on their way up. But, I know Momo; she's not going to be in the ambulance by herself." Trunks said right away.
"I'll grab your car; you know how I feel about people I don't know…especially when they're messing with family." Vegeta said right away.
"Yes, I know…" Trunks sighed; he didn't want to argue with his father about how the EMTs are just trying to help…
"I'll see you after awhile…" Vegeta said before hanging up before Trunks could say anything more.
Before Trunks could call his mother, two EMTs showed up.
"Momo Briefs?" One of the EMTs asked calmly, as to not scare her.
"Da-ddy…" Momo wheezed, very scared as she held onto her teddy bear and his hand.
"It's ok baby; you're going to the hospital now; they're going to help you there. And don't you worry; I'll be with you the entire time. I won't leave you; I promise Trunks said as he held Momo's little hand in his.
"Ok; anything we need to know? Is she allergic to anything we should be aware of?" The second EMT asked while the first took Momo and placed her on the stretcher.
"She is allergic to amoxicillin, codeine, morphine, sulfa, prednisone, penicillin, regular aspirin and latex amongst food items." Trunks explained calmly.
"Ok. You'll have to let the doctors and nurses know the foods she's allergic to; they should have her allergies on file." The second EMT said as Momo was fully strapped in.
All of a sudden, Momo just started screaming; the first EMT had taken her teddy bear; he was planning on handing it to Trunks.
"What's wrong?" The second EMT asked confused.
"I don't know; I just took the bear away. It's protocall. We don't allow patients to hold onto anything because it gets in the way of all the wires and anything else we may need." The first EMT explained, looking at Trunks.
"She's autistic. Momo, baby, shhh…it's ok; everything's going to be ok. Look, I have your teddy bear; I'm going to hold onto it while we take a ride to the hospital, ok? Don't worry; I'll be with you every step of the way." Trunks said with a reassuring smile, as he held the bear up, making it "dance" in the air. Momo started slowly calming down; they were then on their way to the hospital.
While in the ambulance, Trunks called his mom to let her know what was going on. Needless to say, that was very interesting; he was holding Momo's hand with one hand, his phone in his other hand and Momo's teddy bear under his arm.
"Hello? Trunks; is that you?" Bulma asked calmly, but out of breath; Trunks could hear Bulma in the background.
"Yeah mom, it's me." Trunks said as he rubbed Momo's hand with his thumb.
"When are you coming over? Are you almost done at the clinic? What is that noise?" Bulma asked question after question.
"We're done at the clinic; but we're not coming over…" Trunks started.
"What; why not? Is it because Yamcha's here? I can send him home or something." Bulma said right away.
"What?" Trunks heard Yamcha asked in shock on her end.
"No, it's not because Yamcha's there. I already told you; I'm not getting involved with any of that. You and dad and you and Yamcha need to figure things out for yourselves; I have my kids to take care of and worry about. That brings me to the boys; if I called the school, could you pick the boys up early…like in half an hour early?" Trunks asked, increasing his grip on Momo's hand; the second EMT stuck her finger to get a blood sugar reading and Momo started crying.
"What's going on?" Bulma asked, demanding an answer.
"We are on our way to the hospital…in an ambulance; Momo is very sick. Dr. Draya highly believes Momo has the stomach bug that's been going around and appendicitis. We also just found out she's severely allergic to latex gloves, balloons and as much as I hate to say this, most likely condoms." Trunks explained as calmly as he could.
"WHAT?! Is she ok? How is my little grandbaby? Does your father know?" Bulma asked panicked.
"Mom, calm down. She's not doing so well currently; but I'm sure she'll be fine once we get her to the hospital where she can properly be taken care of. And yes, dad knows; he's on his way to the hospital…if not already there." Trunks explained as the EMT took Momo's blood pressure; the cuff went off every five minutes or so.
"Why was he the first to know?" Bulma asked, slightly upset; the other tone was drama.
"He came to the clinic because I had forgotten a packet of Momo's information for Dr. Draya; he dropped it off. And I called him first because I didn't figure he'd leave the area right away and I needed him to either come and travel with Momo or grab my car. And I was right; he was at a fast food joint down the road from the clinic; he grabbed my car by the way." Trunks explained, very annoyed; this was not a competition or whatever; this was his daughter, who is very sick.
"How did he know you left a packet on the table?" Bulma asked, becoming suspicious.
"He's living with me and the kids." Trunks explained as his eyebrow started twitching.
"Why is he living with you and the kids?" Bulma asked on full alert.
"For crying out loud mom; seriously? You kicked him out; he needed a place to go. He's my father and the kids' grandfather; and the kids love him. Before you say anything; they love you too. He's actually been a big help. And for crying out loud mom; Momo's severely sick and having a severe reaction to latex; and all you care about is dad living with me and my kids? Listen, I love you very dearly; and I know you love me and the kids very dearly; but I'm a little annoyed right now. Momo's terrified, I'm scared; I don't one hundred percent know what's going on. I do not want to deal with any drama right now. Can you pick up Knickers and Leo from school for me or no?" Trunks asked borderline annoyed.
"Trunks, I'm sorry. Yes, I can get the boys; just make sure you call the schools. Can I come visit her in the hospital? Which hospital are you going to?" Bulma asked, worried Trunks was so mad at her, that he wouldn't let her visit her grandbaby.
"It's fine mom…I just don't want any drama right now; I don't need it. And Momo certainly doesn't need it. Thanks, I'll call the schools when I'm done on the phone with you. We are headed to the newer hospital for children; Mercy Pediatrics Branch in upper West City. And of course you can come visit Momo; I would never take you away from her or her away from you. The drama just bothers me." Trunks explained calmly, seriously, annoyed and with a sigh.
"Ok; I'll be there after a little while. Do I tell the boys what's going on?" Bulma asked right away.
"Not completely, no. Just tell them she's sick. And mom, if you want, you can bring Yamcha with. Just no drama." Trunks said seriously.
"Ok; we'll see you in a little bit." Bulma said hanging up right away.
"Your grandparents are going to drive me crazy." Trunks sighed as he held onto Momo's hand.
After a minute or two of calming down, Trunks called both Knickers's and Leo's schools to excuse them, saying that there was a family emergency. He explained that his mother, Bulma Briefs was coming to pick them up within fifteen minutes or so. Knickers's school was just fine with it; Leo's school was a bit more pushy; they demanded to know what the family emergency was. Trunks snapped…in a way. If Momo hadn't been so sick or there, he would've been yelling at them. But she was there; and she was very sick…so he calmly snapped at them. Legally, he didn't have to disclose information on family emergencies; he threatened to sue or call the police and say they were holding his son hostage. He was beyond pissed at that.
After about half an hour they arrived at the hospital; Vegeta was already there waiting for them…
