DISCAIMER:I dont own dbz *sniffle*... but i will... someday

Gohan felt his tears streaming and then felt a familiar yet unfamiliar embrace.
He hadn't cried in a while 'i needed to be strong for Goten for my mother i had no time to cry and I can't start now'.Gohan gently pushed away gave a cold glare at his father and walked into the kitchen

Goku now hurt and confused 'what's wrong with him I've never seen him act this , a lot must have happened in the years I've been gone.I can understand that he's had to raise a child when he was barely one himself it shouldn't have happened this way,but is he right thought Am I running away from my responsibilities .' Goku thought about this for a moment and followed the way Gohan was entered the kitchen and spotted Gohan chopping what appeared to be vegetables.

"Hey son need help with anything." Goku asked what else could he do but star small talk.
"Don't call me that and yea just sit down or something and don't get in my way."
Goku pulled up a chair and started thinking' Man, did me leaving really hit him that hard damn I feel like a total jerk.'

'I know he's sorry for what happened but I just bring myself up to forgive him yet. Even before Cell he's been gone for most of my life and he's been gone for all of Goten's life which is good because he never experienced any of the pain I've been through every time he leaves.' Gohan kept going on and on until "Gohan! hey Gohan!" his father tried to get his attention. The younger Demi-saiyan turns around and says"WHAT!" "Gohan your arm its on fire!"Goku said frantically. Gohan turns to that indeed his arm was on fire and shouts" Holy Shit aah!"then panics and is frantically moving around the kitchen. When he is stopped by Goku. grabs his arm and gently pats it down eventually putting out the gives his son a small smille "There better now." Goku says looking at Gohans arm then back at him. Gohan looks at his arm and then back at his father " Thanks but I had that under control." then Goku burst into laughter "The way you were running around it sounded like it was the end of the world." Gohan blushed and then turned around to finish dinner.

After dinner which Gohan was still amazed at how much Goku could eat he got up and went to just a little lost 'He didn't show me a room to sleep in so I guess I'll crash on the couch.' Goku hopped on the couch and had troubled falling asleep still lost in his own thoughts 'I have to find away to get Gohan to see how sorry I am. I know!I can start by making breakfast tomorrow.' After feeling successful in his plan Goku finally drifted to sleep.

As for Gohan he had trouble kept pacing around and thinking.' Dad being home and everything really is stressing me out but i guess it can't be that bad I mean when Goten starts going to school I'll have someone to talk to besides Piccolo and that I think about it Vegeta has been a little nicer since Dad died ,Goten seems to like him to calling him Uncle Vegtea everything. Him and Piccolo really helped me through the bad times even though they had no idea what to do or say,but them just being there really helped me.I guess Vegeta knows what I was going through being orphaned at seven and being worked as a had it worse then I have and he found it in his heart to help me and if he can do that then I can find it in my heart to forgive father although I know it won't be that easy but I'll try.' With that Gohan was able to feel calm for the first time that day.
