Chap. 2 Page 3

Starry Night

�Hai, you do. You have to tell me why. Why do you say you love me and then try and run away? I just don�t understand!�

�I�m not running away! I still love you, and always will! But�I have to leave�I�ve been accepted to a college. A State University. Torankusu, I have to move to America��

His jaw dropped as he stared at me with both a hurt and angered look on his face.

�Please Torankusu, listen to me�I love you. I do�bu-� Before I could finish my sentence he had turned away from me and started to fly away, and fast. I jumped out the window and flew after him. I was speeding through the air, going so fast the wind hurt my cheeks, and turned my face red. It felt like needles stabbing me in the face. I finally caught up behind him, grabbing his shoulder and stopping him in the air. He turned around and faced me. I gasped. His face was soaking wet with salty tears. I watched a single drop slide from his eye crack and tumble down his rashed cheek. I wanted to say something so badly, but the words were all twisted and got caught in my throat. I just looked at him. He turned back away and flew off again. This time, I didn�t have the strength to go after him. I wasn�t able to speak the first time, it probably wouldn�t help for me to go after him again, and cause him even more pain. I descended to the ground, my legs curled up, I placed my face in my hands and wept. There was nothing I could do now. I was leaving, and that was that. I couldn�t explain myself because I was in too much pain. I laid under a nearby tree and cried myself to sleep, not waking till the next morning.



~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*A week later.*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~



I was in my room, packing my stuff when I heard a knock at my door. I turned around and saw my mother there. Her eyes were filled with tears but her face was smiling.

�Mom�� I smiled at her and held my arms out. She immediately ran up to me and hugged me tightly. A little too tight, but I didn�t mind much, I knew it would be my last one for a long time.

�I love you mother. And I�ll write every week, or at least try to anyway.� She broke the hug, her hands on my shoulders, she was still smiling.

�I love you too, my little Panny-chan. You better remember to write me. Ooh! I�m going to miss you so much. She hugged me again, sobbing into my shirt. Just then my father came upstairs. He walked over to my mom, un- clung her from me and transported her to him.

�Hey, you take care of yourself Paansu. I mean it. Your mother and I are so proud of you.�
I smiled and kissed his cheek. �I will papa. I promise.� My father stayed at the house with my mother when I left. She was in complete hysterics, no way could she come to see me off. When I arrived at the airport everyone was there. Except�Trunks�he was no where in sight. I asked Bura about him, but she said that he had mentioned that he had something to do. I just nodded to her. I felt horrible, my stomach turned in pain. I decided not to let it show though, I wanted everyone to be happy.

�I�ll miss you B-chan, and I promise, when I have the time I�ll make sure to call you every now and then. See you Bulma, thanks for treating me like your own daughter. Goodbye Grandfather. Keep good care of Goten.� I rubbed the top of Goten�s head and giggled lightly. Bejiita was leaning against a wall in the corner. He was being his typical self. I said goodbye to him, and gave everyone one last hug. Climbing on the plane I turned around and waved. All that kept running through my mind was Trunks. Where was he, did he still love me, was he happy? I tried to put it in the back of my mind and I boarded the plane. I stared out the window for the whole trip. And when I slept, I dreamed of only him�Trunks, my only love.
