Whis Does the Unexpected
A/N: Thank you ElisaJ for the reviews. I look forward to your update of "Life With You."
3 Months during Chichi and Goku's suspension.
Chichi furiously types on her laptop's keyboard while she works on the second draft of "The Great Gatsby" script. The moment she and Goku got suspended, he never attempted to communicate with her. He really fulfilled what he said to her that, he'll not bother her anymore.
There were a few times that she and Goku has seen in each other in the public market at the vegetable section since Goku helps his Grandpa Gohan manage his vegetable business. He only waved at her but didn't approach her. Those encounters left Chichi heart broken. It felt like Goku doesn't want to have anything to do with her anymore.
Writing the script for the musical production seems like an excellent therapy for her now. Her eyes are glued on the screen and the paper back copy of the "Great Gatsby" is placed right beside her laptop for reference. In her tense mood no one dares to bother her except; "Pumpkin, Mister Whis is here. He said he has good news." Governor GyuMao tenderly told his daughter. Chichi replied to her father flatly." I'll be right down."
The sophisticated Philosophy Professor and the project manager of the stage musical adaptation of "The Great Gatsby" is seated on the Mahogany sofa in the receiving area. He is patiently waiting for his long time friend and co – educator Chianna while reading Readers Digest and sipping a tall glass of Lemongrass Iced Tea. He's been waiting for the fiery tempered yet devoted professor to face him. They've been quite estranged since the suspension of Chichi and Goku. In fact, the English and Literature and Philosophy lady Professor no longer spends time with him for a friendly coffee or lunch out, like they used to. They only communicate now through electronic mail or instant messaging to discuss the script she's assigned to do. She is indeed mad at him for getting between her and the young man she learned to love.
After sixty days and excruciating forty five minutes, Chianna finally faces him. " Hello Whis, my father said you have good news. You could've just called. "Chichi said in a cold manner.
The refined professor is taken aback with Chichi's cold reception towards him. Yet he maintained his friendly gesture and said. "I want to tell you that the community of Arts and Letters are excited to see the staging of our play. And they want to see a dry run before the official opening." Chichi walks towards the small table where the bottle of Red Wine and Brandy is placed. She takes one of the glasses beside the wine bottles and poured half a glass of brandy. She lifts it up and tells Whis; "Here's to you oh my goody to shoes leader, may you have more success in the coming days at the expense of my broken heart." Chichi then drinks the brandy bottoms up then smashes the glass on the wall.
Whis is stunned at Chichi's un called for behavior. He remained composed. Chichi then starts to sob hard and starts to tell Whis. " I miss Goku terribly Whis, I truly miss him." Whis sympathetically looks at Chichi and then he walks to her. He pulls her in a friendly consoling hug and said. " Chichi, I am so sorry you're suffering like this and so as Goku." I need to do what is rightfully done for your case with him. Not to put you down or intentionally hurt both of you". I decided to suspend the two of you to protect both of you in committing a grave mistake that may harm your future."
Chichi continuously sobbed as she is being consoled by Whis she said to him." But you could've trusted us that we will be cautious and conduct ourselves responsibly. You know I dated before but I never found a man as determined and caring as Goku. He is the only one I learned to love. I don't want anybody else."
With that Whis, didn't refute what Chichi said but did something which he never thought he'll do. This time he is dealing with Chichi as his long time friend not as the head of the faculty staff. He politely excused himself when Chichi calmed down.
Phone rings on the third time someone picks up.
"Goku, Mister Whis here I want you to meet me at Cream and Puffs coffee shop. You need to turn in your assignments already because, I'm going to give your take home exams." Goku politely responded to Mister Whis. "Alright Sir, I'll be there in two hours."
After his phone call to Goku, he went back to the living room where Chichi is and said. "I'm going for coffee in town. Come with me you can't keep moping here. Just finish the second draft of the script later"
An hour later at the coffee shop
Goku is already in the coffee shop waiting for Whis. When Whis arrived, he is greatly surprised to see the person who is with Mister Whis because he thought he'll no longer get the chance to be close to her anymore.
Now Goku and Chichi are standing face to face locked in each other's loving gaze while under Whis's watch.
A/N: What can you say about Whis's gesture? Do you think the suspension of Goku and Chichi are now over or this meetup is to only console the heartache of these two people in love?
