Chapter 10: The Enemies
Pucca's POV
I have to tell my parents and my uncles the truth, but how are they going to react? Well I can't keep hiding the truth, I have to tell them that I am pregnant, and then I have to tell Garu that I am leaving and that I love him.
[end of Pucca's POV]
Pucca went down to the kitchen and found her parents and her uncles eating together. Pucca took a deep breath and got closer to them, she couldn't help but cry. They looke at her confused, Pucca opened her lips and talked.
" Mom, dad, uncles, I have something important to tell" Pucca said, with tears on her eyes.
" What happened?" They asked at the same time, Pucca touched her stomach and looked back at them.
" I am….. I am… expecting a baby from Garu" Pucca said, they gasped.
" What! Pucca? Is this true, are you pregnant?" Pucca's mom said as she touched her daughter's abdomen.
" Yes, I am" Pucca said, they all smiled and they hugged her, Pucca gasped as she saw their reaction.
" Wow, I just met my daughter and now I am going to be a grandfather" Pucca's dad said. Pucca smiled and hugged all of them.
" Does Garu know?" Uncle Dumpling asked.
" No, and I won't tell him for now, I first want him to finish his rivalry with Tobe so that when I come back everything will be peaceful and ready to raise our child together" Pucca said with tears in her eyes.
" You are leaving?" Pucca's mom asked with sadness in her voice, Pucca nodded and hugged them, as in a farewell.
" Yes, but I will come back soon, now I have to pack up and tell Garu that I am leaving, is for the best" Pucca said.
She gave them one last hug, packed her stuff and walked out of the Goh-Rong's door. She went to the training center and found Garu practicing. Before she went in, she cried and then approached him. Garu rushed towards her and hugged her. Then he looked at her suitcases, and noticed the tears in her eyes.
" Pucca? Where are you going?" Garu asked with tears in his eyes.
" I have to leave to think about stuff, and everything that is going on with me, but I love you with all my heart, you will then understand why I am doing this" Pucca said as she hugged him.
" Why are you leaving me? I can't live without you, If I don't have you I am going to cry my eyes out, and what about our wedding next month" Garu said.
" I love you, I hope that I get to see you again, but if we don't meet again in this life-time I just want you to know that I carry the best gift that you could ever given me, so let me say before I part that you will be with me always in my heart. I love you, but I have to go" Pucca said, she felt dizzy and nausecous but she managed to stay on her feet.
" Are you feeling okay?" Garu worriedly asked.
" A little dizzy, that's all" Pucca confessed, she hugged Garu and started to walk away when all of a sudden the enemies Tobe and Ring Ring appeared and Tobe started fighting with Garu and Ring Ring came closer to Pucca but she backed up, she wanted to fight but she knew that if she fought her then she could loose her baby and she couldn't take that risk. Ring Ring surrounded Pucca.
" So Pucca, what are you going to name your baby?" Ring Ring said.
" You better stay away from my baby or you are going to suffer, no one will touch my baby" Pucca said. Pucca was going to attack when all of a sudden something hit her and she fell unconscious.
" Good night Pucca" Ring Ring said, they took her, Tobe left Garu and looked for Pucca, he noticed they took her but he didn't know were to find her. He ran to the restaurant and asked everyone for help. Everyone went out looking for Pucca, there was no sign of her, she was nowhere to be found. Garu somehow felt that there was something else, something other than his love for Pucca, he knew he had to find her.
He went to his house when he heard a phone call. When he answered it, he knew that it was Tobe.
[on the phone]
" Where is Pucca! What did you do to her?" Garu said talking to Tobe on the phone.
" Garu, you can save her unless you want her to be gone forever" Tobe said.
" Don't hurt her, what do I have to do?" Garu said.
" Very easy, give your honor up, and then you can have her but if you reject this then I guess you can say to bye to you fiancee and your kid" Tobe said as hang up the phone.
[phone hanged up]
Garu's POV
My kid? What does he mean? I have to save Pucca, and if I have to loose my honor, then I would, the only way of lossing my honor is if my enemy kills me but if that's the only way to save Pucca, then I have to do it.
[end of Pucca's POV]
Garu rushed to Tobe's lair, when he arrived he saw Pucca tied up and uncnscious, he was going to untie Pucca but Tobe got him by surprise.
" Well, look what we have here, the one and only Garu" Tobe mocked as he hugged Ring Ring.
" I am here so leave Pucca" Garu courageously said looking at Pucca.
" Good, any words for Pucca, before I change my mind because the only way of dishonoring you is if you die by the sword of your enemy but you already knew that" Tobe said, Pucca woke up, still tied to the chair and cried on what she heard.
" I know that" Garu said, he made his way to Pucca, she was tied so she couldn't hug him or talk to him because her mouth was covered, Tobe removed the cloth from Pucca's mouth so that she can talk.
" Garu! No please don't do it" Pucca pleaded, Garu nuzzled her face and softly smiled.
" You will be okay my love. If this is the only way to save you then I am going to save you" Garu said.
" But you can't do it because I am…" Pucca said, before she could finish telling the truth to Garu about her pregnancy, she felt an immense pain in her stomach. She yelled in pain as she was grabbing her stomach, Garu rushed towards her.
" Pucca? My love what is going on?" Garu worriedly asked.
" Garu, It hurts me" Pucca said, as she cried in pain.
" Tobe, please we have to call a doctor, call a doctor quick!" Garu said, Tobe and Ring Ring surprisingly untied Pucca and called a doctor. Garu held her in his arms until the ambulance came.
" Don't think is over, I will get my revenge but in some other way now" Tobe said as he planned something much more vile than before.
Garu went in the ambulance with Pucca. They took Pucca and Garu stayed outside, later on Pucca's parents and uncles came accompanied by Ching, Abyo and Chibyo. Garu waited along with the others, the doctor came and Garu quickly stood up.
" Doctor, how is Pucca" Garu asked, hoping that is nothing bad.
" Don't worry Garu, Pucca and the baby are well" The doctor said, Garu couldn't believe it, he was surprised.
