Chapter two : Haunting memory
Long into the night , Vegeta , standing near the pond which was at a small distance from the Capsule corporation , watching his dark reflection in the night water " how can I tell this to her , I never shared anything anything , but this memory is too much to bear , I don't know whether she knew it or not , probably nobody has told her. How can she stand it , I , the prince of all saiyans with no weakness such as love can't stand it , how can she ! ? , how could she ! ? How could ...that her s-son was dead , ...no! killed by Cell right infront of his father's eyes and his father , me! , was watching as a mere spectator , unable to do anything even with mightiest of my attacks , how can I tell that this memory is haunting my sleep , that I was so weak and unable to protect my own son! " his eyes were slowly drowning in tears.
As these thoughts were spiralling in his mind , the sun rose , making the sky look like an orange carpet and its reflection in the pond colouring the water orange , it was a spectacle to watch , a stand out beautiful scenery.
As the morning made its entry , Vegeta flew back to his new found home , entered bulma's room through the balcony. As he entered into the room , he noticed his brat , sleeping peacefully with his hands widespread. As he saw little Trunks sleeping , the nightmare struck his mind again.
Vegeta alone with his son in the room , pulled out his arm and tried to touch Trunks' little chubby finger with his index finger. Just when his finger almost made contact with that of Trunks', the bathroom door suddenly opened , and Bulma stepped out with a wet towel wrapped all over her body. Vegeta suddenly turned crossing his arms , facing his back to her and watching her from the corner of his eye.
Bulma saw him in surprise and realized that he is still recovering from the nightmare , rather than troubling him she , tried to cheer him up " I was planning to take Trunks out to the park in the evening after I finished my work , if you like to join please let me know and...yes! , I upgraded the training bots last night "
Vegeta stood still and turned to face Bulma implying that he has listened to her. As the day passed on , Bulma became busy with her work and to her surprise all the day she noticed Vegeta didn't train at all. All day Vegeta was studying Trunks though from a maximum possible distance from which he can see Trunks.
As the evening came , Bulma was dressing herself and Vegeta stood behind her " come on! get ready faster, why is it taking ages for you to get dressed , its not a party , its just a park ". Bulma was shock struck, Vegeta was coming with her and Trunks to the park. She never thought it would happen at least once in a life time. She was ecstatic but she hid it and replied " Be patient mister! "
After few minutes Bulma, Vegeta and Trunks headed into the park , walking as the sun was setting into the mountains. Bulma , carrying Trunks over her arm sat under a tree and gestured Vegeta to sit next to her. They watched the sun tremendously setting into the mountains and the sky was painted gold , the atmosphere was so peaceful with the music of birds chirping as they were returning to their nests. Trunks was playing with his mother's ear rings. Bulma whispered softly " Vegeta "
