A new day began in the eastern metropolis and with it, the people of that city rose from their beds with the illusion and intrinsic joy that the dawn of a new day represents.
The birds sang happily from their nests and fed their younglings, like other animals. For them, it was a monotonous day, but for a certain couple, it was the third day of their great adventure.
Mount Paoz:
A house of traditional Chinese architecture stood in all its splendour on a vast wasteland far from all human civilization.
Inside, a black-haired man was sleeping meekly until he felt his body demand activity, he opened his eyes by rubbing them lightly, jumped up, and began to stretch.
'There are nine months left for the tournament where I will face Piccolo's son. I must continue training and overcome my limits' Those thoughts full of determination did not belong to another person other than Son Goku.
He finishes doing his stretches and begins to give a series of punches and kicks to the air, in an attempt to wake up his muscles; when he was satisfied, he opened the doors of his hut in the sunlight and spread his arms joyfully.
"I will go to breakfast and then I will pay her a little visit hehe," Goku said, rubbing his hands as he began to run in search of his first meal.
He begins to run until he enters the forest. He takes out his holy staff from his back when he sniffs several wolves around him, backing away when the canids appear in front of him until he kills three of them and the rest escape.
"Today I will eat a lot," Goku points out, touching his belly as he takes the wolves and goes to prepare a fire.
Somewhere else:
Meanwhile, in a room located in the building of the largest company in the world, a beautiful girl with blue hair is getting up after hearing the constant beep of her alarm clock.
Ring.
Ring.
Ring.
She turns it off and frowns when the sun's rays hit her face. She closes the blinds in her room and gets rid of the sheets covering her body.
"Hmmm I'm quite sleepy, but I must continue going to college until at least the third month of pregnancy is completed, then I will present my resignation," Bulma speaks with a hint of fatigue as she gets up from her bed.
She begins to stretch her muscles and emits a long yawn, rubbing her eyes as she walks to the bathroom. She enters and looks in the mirror, seeing slight wrinkles under her eye areas.
"A good makeup touch-up and it will be like new," inquired the blue-eyed woman with a smile as she looked at herself in the mirror.
She takes off the robe that she is wearing, remaining completely naked, and takes a few steps towards the bathtub. She begins to whistle a melody as she hopes that the tub will fill up.
When the tub is filled, she slowly submerges herself and lets out a moan as she feels the cold water on her body. She takes some gel and begins to rub it on her body as she hums a tune and thinks to herself.
"I'm glad that Goku is by my side in all of this, although I find it funny to imagine him changing diapers," laughed Bulma as she pictured the black-haired man changing diapers. "I used to see him as a little brother, but now he's going to be the father of my first child. But I don't love him... maybe I love him as a friend, but not as my boyfriend. Besides, he doesn't care about these things. He just thinks about eating and training. I admire the effort he's making with all of this," added the blue-haired woman with a smile.
At the end of her cleaning, she got out of the bathtub with her body wet. She takes two towels, one wraps around her body and the other around her hair.
She looks at herself in the mirror with a smile and, taking advantage of the fact that the mirror's surface is fogged up, she draws a heart. She then leaves the bathroom and is surprised by what she finds.
"Hey Bulma, how are you?" Goku asked, sitting on the bed with a smile as usual. But instead of answering him, Bulma lowers her gaze as her face begins to redden and a vein stands out on her head
"GOKU, WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE!?" Bulma screamed completely red with fury and the black haired boy swallowed hard begging for his life.
Minutes later:
Bulma is dressed in her school uniform and is looking at herself in the mirror as she applies makeup lotion to her cheekbones and paints her silky lips with crimson lipstick.
On the other hand, the black-haired man is sitting in a corner of the room, hugging his knees. Several lumps stand out on his head and blood stains are visible on his face.
"Now, what did you come here for while I was in the bathroom?" Bulma asked, having already finished with her activities, as she stood a few inches from Goku who looked fearfully at her friend.
"I-I just came to accompany you to school," the young boy replied, pointing to the window where his flying cloud was floating. "Your father told me to do it as long as you continue going to school."
It had been two days since Bulma received the news of her pregnancy and she had taken a short break from college, claiming that she "was sick."
During those days, she had received visits from Goku. They played, chatted, and ate as usual, rarely talking about her future.
Bulma massaged her forehead as she narrowed her eyes. After all, she was not a weak woman and knew how to handle herself, but it would be an advantage and an indisputable comfort to have Goku accompany her.
"Okay, but first I have to have breakfast. Have you had something for breakfast?" Bulma asked, smiling. Although he would never refuse a plate of food anyway, she thought to herself, 'what a silly question I just asked him.'
"I hunted some wolves this morning before I left the house. They were quite delicious," Goku said while lightly patting his stomach.
Bulma looked at him with a drop of sweat on the back of her neck. Goku was still eating the same thing as the first time they met, even though she recommended eating healthier.
"I suppose you're still hungry, right?" she asked with a resigned tone and the boy nodded energetically
More later:
Dozens and dozens of plates were piling up on the dining room table and it looked like they would keep piling up.
Goku's stomach seemed to have a black hole because eating that much and being human was practically irrational, unless his metabolism was inhumanly accelerated.
Bulma had barely eaten two strawberry yogurts and a chocolate muffin, but his plate already had twenty-five of them. The cooks, like her, watched the scene with a drop of sweat on the back of their heads.
"Ahh *sigh* after this little meal, I feel very energetic. How about you?" Goku turns to Bulma and sees that she nods with a drop of sweat. "Shall we go?" he asks
Bulma nods, takes her backpack, opens it to check if she has everything she needs, closes it tightly, and puts it on her back before giving Goku a thumbs up.
They both walk in silence to the main exit, but before that they say goodbye to Dr. Briefs since he is the only one awake, they leave the house and stand on the street.
"Are you ready?" Goku asks with a smile as he extends his right hand to her.
"What are you talking about?" Bulma asks, arching a confused eyebrow. Before she can react, her black-haired companion takes her in his arms.
"KINTOUN!" At the loud cry of Goku, a yellowish cloud appears floating magically in the air. Without warning, Goku jumps on it and flies over the city.
Bulma remains clinging to Goku's chest while she digs her nails into the boy's orange gi. She has her eyes closed, refusing to see reality.
"Bulma, I think you're hurting me," the boy adds with a smile and the blue-eyed woman stops clinging, completely blushing, still keeping her eyes closed.
"Why didn't you tell me first?" the blue-haired girl asks in a tone of complaint and Goku shrugs his shoulders. "Okay, I'll open my eyes on the count of one... two... and three."
Waves of pure adrenaline course through her bloodstream and unconsciously, a smile full of emotion permeates her lips. She closes her eyes and relaxes, imagining herself in a magical landscape. "You ... you used to travel like this most of the time?" Bulma asks, staring at the black-eyed man.
"Yes, it is the fastest way to travel and I also feel comfortable in my flying cloud," the black-eyed boy replies with a smile embedded on his lips.
The breeze generated by their speed gently hits her features, moving her light blue and dark hair respectively in a rhythmic and melodious movement.
"It is the first time I have travelled this way," the blue-eyed woman confesses, enjoying the air on her face. "It creates in me... a feeling that I cannot describe in words," she adds, placing her left hand on her chest.
"I understand you, I felt that way when Master Roshi handed me Kinto'un and got on it for the first time," the boy reveals and the blue-eyed woman nods, remembering that moment with a nostalgicically smile.
That day, they met the old Kame Sennin's tortoise in the middle of their journey and when they returned to their destination, it rewarded them by bringing its owner with it - none other than Roshi.
Then the teacher thanked them for returning his turtle and as a reward, he gave the black-haired man a flying cloud and gave Bulma a dragon ball, of course, in exchange for "something else".
"Although," Goku added thoughtfully, turning to see the blue-eyed woman. "While in the air, I saw you lift your dress and show something to Master Roshi. I wonder what it is," he questioned.
Bulma, completely startled by those words, let go of her hold on Goku and, not having a "pure" heart, she fell from the cloud, crashing down to the ground.
"KYAAAA!"
