Playing with Fire Chapter 5
It is already 12 noon, when Goku had finished the sketches of the new batch of furnitures for his new client Mr. Roger Dublin; a dimsum joint owner. When he is about to go out to have lunch, his phone rang. Though slightly irritated he answered the phone as politely as he could. His irritation immediately vanished, when he heard his favorite voice. "Hello honey! Bulma, 18 and I, have just finished picking up the Bridesmaid gowns in Bridedazzled. They look lovely! We are on our way to Yabu for lunch. How about you? Goku smiled and replied. "I'll just grab a quick bite to Sango" and then I'll comeback to finish up some work." Chichi sweetly replied. "Alright enjoy your lunch, C u tonight!" Goku said, C u tonight honey."
Sango is a famous Japanese Burgerhouse in the city. Customers fall in line for a maximum of 1 hour to get their turn. Luckily Goku waited in line for only 30 minutes before he could place his orders. He ordered for a triple pattie burger with cucumber, caramelized onions and tomatoes in honey mustard dressing with French fries. He ordered a tall glass of Raspberry Juice to wash it down and for dessert; Goku ordered a thick freshly baked brownie with a huge scoop of Vanilla ice cream drizzled with chocolate syrup. He needed to pack up on protein and sugar after his unpleasant experience during breakfast with his buddies. He kinda expected that Krillin and Yamcha are going to give him a moral boost, but instead he got peppered with interrogatory questions.
On the farthest corner table of Sango, is where Suno sat. She had just finished her lunch. She stood up to bring her tray to the cleaning counter,when she saw someone very familiar to her; the spiked hair in different directions, the broad shoulders and muscular arms. Suno walked a little bit closer to see the man better. When she confirmed that it is Goku, Suno's hands trembled and the tray she's holding slipped from her hands and fell on the floor. All the contents on the tray got smashed this catches the attention of the other diners. She remained still from where she's standing; she felt her knees shaking and her hands are sweating her head is spinning. Suno couldn't hardly breath. Her eyes rolled to the back of her head and she fainted.
2 hours later when Suno regained consciousness, she's already at the Wukong Hospital's emergency room. She slowly sat up from the bed and looked around, and to her surprise she spoted Goku talking to a resident doctor. She thought to herself."I promised myself that when I get here, I will do everything that I can to find you and make you pay Goku. But I never thought that things has quickly changed the moment I saw you. Despite I am so mad at you for casting me aside, I still love you." She bowed her head and began to sob and then she felt a strong and yet gentle rub on her back this made her feel better. When she looked up it is Goku. The two of them just stared at each other in awkward silence, not knowing what to say to each other. And then the resident doctor came and said."Sir you can bring your wife home, she just experienced a panic attack." Goku so as not to embarrass the doctor and to add some more heartache to Suno,chose not to correct rather politely thanked the doctor. When they were left alone, Suno managed to speak and said without looking at Goku,"Thank you for bringing me here Goku. I feel a lot better now; you can carry on with whatever you're doing. I can go home by myself." Goku sighed and replied. Suno this does not seem to be the right time but I think the talk I supposed to have with you, after that night is long overdue. If you may, at least let me give you a ride home." Suno silently said "Okay."
The ride from the hospital has taken only 30 minutes. When Goku and Suno reached unit 403, Suno opened the door and stepped inside the apartment, she side stepped and motioned for Goku to come in. When both of them are already inside, they sat down on the couch face to face 4 meters apart from each other. Goku began to speak "Suno" he paused and took a deep breath and then carried on with what he wants to say. "I" he paused again. Suno just stared at him waiting to what he is going to say. She had been looking forward for this moment for a long time. Goku then mustered the courage to continue."Suno, there are no excuses for what I've done" he somberly said. I know I have hurt you so much and I am truly sorry not only for leaving without an explanation but for not making amends right away. Suno, if I had not been honest in the past, I want to be honest now. You see when we gotten together I was really attracted to you and I liked you a lot but, I am with someone." Upon hearing this, Suno gulped and then tears started to flow from her eyes and she replied her voice cracking." How could you be so selfish Goku? How could you betray both of us? What have we done to deserve this?"Suno stood abruptly walked towards Goku and slapped him hard. Suno continued with her ranting"Why Goku why? When I had been good to you? My parents showed kindness to you! How dare you hurt me this way! Tell me Goku what are we to you!? Me and the woman who you claim to be with while we were together? Some kind of trophy huh?" Suno slapped him hard again. She didn't stop" You know even though I am so mad at you for leaving me, I am still in love with you! And then Suno showed the scars on her wrists. Look at these Goku. Upon seeing the scars on Suno's wrists he stood up and gently pulled her in a tight embrace. While he rested his chin on her head he somberly said. "I am truly sorry; I hope you will find it in your heart to forgive me." Suno just rested her head on Goku's broad chest and closed her eyes. She savored his pine scent perfume and then she affectionately looked into Goku's eyes and asked."Goku will you make love to me one last time? Goku bent down and gave her a deep kiss, Suno responded with the kiss, and then she slowly pushed Goku on the couch and mounted on him. She began kissing his neck and then she pulled his shirt off and continued kissing him down to his chest and 6 pack abs. Goku moaned with pleasure. He allowed her to kiss and touch him and then, Goku wrapped his strong arms around her bent his right knee to keep his balance and ceremoniously laid Suno on the floor. He lay atop her and continued to kiss her deeply while unbuttoning her cream colored satin blouse. And then his wireless phone rang. The sound of the phone ringing is like a splash of cold water to his face. This brought back Goku to his senses. He promptly stood up and answered "Hello? He paused and then he walked few steps away from Suno. When she was out of earshot, he resumed his phone conversation. "Yes honey our dinner is still on. I am already preparing; see you in a little while." After he hanged up, he turned around and saw Suno standing by the dining table she asked in a sad voice, "It is her who's on the phone right?" Goku subduedly replied." Yes Suno it is her and sorry if I" Suno raised her hand to stop him from what he is about to say and said. "Just go." And with that Goku put back his shirt on, apologetically looked at Suno and left quietly. Suno picked up the flower vase and smashed it to the front door.
AN: I know Goku can be easily swayed here. It sucks for Chichi and even Suno for that matter... I would love to her from you...
