Summary
“Yeah, you’re right. His work ethic and discipline are admirable. I can understand what you see in him now, his honor. That’s what my mom saw in him all those years ago and why she fell in love with him,” Trunks said thoughtfully.
Bulma clenched the scissors in her hand, almost dropping them. Hearing the word actually spoken out loud was like hearing about a death. She had not dared herself to even allow her thoughts to go there before. To that word. She couldn’t go there. Not now. Her heart hammered in her chest so loudly that she was sure Trunks would be able to hear it from where he sat in front of her. Her gut clenched and her whole body rushed with heat. It’s not as though her feelings mattered anyhow. She didn’t have the slightest idea what the future held. What was the point in trying to figure out how she felt? It’s not like Vegeta was capable of reciprocating any sort of feelings. He didn’t even attempt to save her and baby Trunks when Dr. Gero blasted the ship. It was easy for the future version of herself to throw around words like that because the Vegeta that she knew had died. In this timeline, it was what was between them that had died.
