Chapter 17: Sister (2)

"Bulma, do not blame yourself, I also played that "game" and it is my responsibility, I will be with you until the baby comes out and I will continue to protect you and take care of you as I promised your father" Goku mumbled smiling and the blue-eyed looked surprised, the latter two years had changed a lot. "Do you promise to stop blaming yourself?"

"You promise me that you will be with me no matter what happens?" Asked Bulma with glassy eyes and his friend nodded scratching the back of her neck, until she jumped on him hugging him. "Thank you for being my friend Goku" said the girl with a voice full of sincerity and Goku showed a smile.

Flashback end.

'I'm sorry Goku, I have failed our promise. You have continued with me all these months and I still continue to blame myself' Bulma thought with an afflicted feeling in her chest.

Tights noticed that and approached her sister, wrapping her in her arms in a loving way, trying to comfort the blue-eyed woman.

"Don't cry Bulma, you know I've never liked seeing you cry..." Tights whispered, hugging her sister. "Don't let the past define your actions and live in the present" she added.

"I know Tights..." Bulma spoke, slowly interrupting her sobs and regaining her drink. "I'm sorry I disappointed you, I didn't want to..."

"Disappoint me?" Tights abruptly separated from her younger sister upon hearing her words. "You are never going to disappoint me, do you hear me? You are a very intelligent, beautiful, friendly girl with a great future ahead of her, don't let your pregnancy cloud your thoughts. Face that challenge as you always do and face it, I am sure you will be a great mother and a great scientist, I trust you Bulma. Mom and Dad trust you, and I'm sure your boyfriend does too".

Tights spoke those words staring at her sister, Bulma, who couldn't help herself and jumped on her, hugging her with love and affection. After so long, Bulma finally felt the warmth of her older sister again. A warmth that she had longed for so much.

Dr. Briefs watched the entire scene from one corner. He smiled happily at the mutual love between his two sisters.

"Thanks Tights, I missed you so much" spoken Bulma happily. "And ... he's not my boyfriend, he's my... best friend" added the girl.

"I see, I'd like to meet him" Tights mumbled, "hey Bulma, can I ask you something?"

"Sure, whatever you want" the girl replied, scooping up a piece of the strawberry cake that her mother Panchy had prepared hours earlier.

"W-what did you feel when you lost your virginity?" Tights asked blushing as she played with her fingers. "They say it's something beautiful and exciting... a-at least that's what I've heard".

Bulma almost choked on her cake upon hearing those words. This was not her sister, what did they do with her and where was her original sister?

"W-why do you want to know?" A-besides, I don't remember, she was intoxicated" said Bulma blushing, she remembered fragments of that night, enough to know what happened. "Why would you want to know something like that?!"

"Easy, easy, it was a joke, I have no romantic interest" Tights mentioned with a soft laugh. "What about him? you like?"

"Goku? I don't know, I'm confused in that aspect" replied Bulma with a sigh. "It's true that he's someone who makes me scream every so often "she added with a small vein of anger, "but he also makes me smile like nobody else does, he supports me... every moment with him is unique and special, it's as if he... well, I wouldn't know with what exact words could describe it"

Tights smiled narrowing his eyes at her. She knew her sister was falling in love, she just needed to realize it.

"Buulmaaa!!"

Goku's voice echoed throughout the house and the two Briefs sisters looked up to see him holding something strange.

"Hi Bulma, how are you? and the baby? Look, I brought you this roasted wolf so you can try it hehehe" muttered Goku pointing to the animal that he carried in his hand -Who is this girl?

Tights held back her laughter as Bulma shook her head. Goku did his thing.

"Y-you can leave it out, then we'll talk about testing that wolf..." Bulma spoke and as quickly as she finished those words Goku shot out of the house.

"I'll go talk to him, I need to tell him a couple of things" Tights said smiling and her sister nodded somewhat doubtfully. "Don't worry, I know he's a good boy, I just want to give him some advice" she added before leaving.

'I hope everything goes well' The blue haired girl thought, putting her hand to her chest.

Outside.

Tights walked towards the place where Goku was keeping the animal that he had cooked.

"Hi, I'm Tights, Bulma's sister" the afore mentioned stretched her arm in the form of greeting towards the boy. "You must be Goku, right?"

"Yes, it's me, I hope we're friends" added the black-haired man with his classic radiant smile.

'If soon we will be family...' Tights told herself smiling, the relationship between her sister and that boy promised a lot.

"Well..." Tights didn't know how to start, he barely knew the boy. "I heard that you and my sister are going to be parents..."

"Yes, Bulma is six months pregnant and the baby will be a girl" said the boy, remembering what he heard the day before about Bulma's gestation time, which was six months.

"Yes... I suppose you already know what you should do to be the father of the baby, right?" Tights asked seriously.

"Yeah, I must be with Bulma" the boy answered quite naturally.

"That too, but there are things you should do as a father, do you know what it means to be a father?" Tights asked and the black-haired man denied.

'Wow, this boy is just as naive and innocent as Bulma said. I'll tell him a few things so that he can see for himself what it really means to be a father' Tights thought with a smile.

"A father must take care of his son, he must love him, love him and protect him, ensure his well-being and prioritize him at all times" Tights enumerated. "Bulma told me that during these months they both learned several things that would help them face the future".

"Yes, we learned to change diapers, to prepare bottles and all that, it was quite difficult" muttered the black-haired man smiling.

"Oh I see" the blonde girl murmured. "Well, we do not know each other very much, but since you will be the father of my niece I will tell you something: stay by Bulma's side, support her, love her, do not let her carry all the responsibility, be a support that she can lean on at all times and above all, keep making her feel so special, I don't know what you do to make her smile all the time, but if that makes her happy, don't stop doing it".

Goku heard every one of her words, despite not fully understanding them. But yes, several things were clear to him: he should be with Bulma, protect her and support her, as he had been doing these months.

"Now we can go back Goku, I hope that from now on we get along well" Tights mentioned with a smile on her face.

"Sure, I hope so too" the boy added in turn as he walked into the house.

More later.

Bulma was sitting on the couch waiting for the return of her sister and her friend Goku hers.

"Hahahaha"

Bulma heard some laughter and saw that her sister was laughing out loud walking alongside Goku.

"Did you really mistake Bulma for a witch? That's pretty weird" Tights spoke smiling as Goku scratched the back of his neck.

"Well, I see they've talked a lot" Bulma said to herself smiling as she watched the two chatting.

'Now I understand how you don't get bored with him' Tights thought as she winked at her sister, who interpreted the message as follows: "Don't worry, I talked to him and everything went well."

"I'm starving Bulma, don't you have something to eat?" Goku asked, massaging his stomach.

"Sure! My mother has made several cakes, I'm sure you are going to love them" Bulma replied with a smile and Goku jumped with joy.

Tights smiled at the sight of them. They were so for which.

Minutes later.

Tights was left with a drop of sweat as he watched Goku devour all the cakes. What kind of person ate that much?
