"It's okay, Chi-Chi. I know you didn't mean to be mad." Kakarot said, being gentle.
Chi-Chi wiped away her tears, "Thank you..." She took some comfort knowing that he didn't hold anything against her.
"It-It's just that I really liked you... and I wanted to get married soon."
"Guess you got too excited." Gine muttered softly, but her son heard.
Kakarot loved his mother to death but something in him didn't care for her snide remark.
He felt guilty too. Despite trying to set things straight, he didn't mean to cause so much grief with Chi-Chi. He really did like her, she was a great fighter and found her fiery spirit fascinating. Now it seemed like the friendship they made was over, especially since this was the first time he had to go back on a promise.
Even Gine felt a little bad seeing this young girl's dreams crumble, but it had to be done.
"I'm sorry for the misunderstanding, Chi-Chi." She said, about to turn and leave when Kakarot spoke up.
"Wait!"
"Huh?" Gine looked to him confused, and saw the look in his eyes when he had an idea,
"Say, Chi-Chi…" He started, which she looked up still teary eyed. "Would you like to come look for the Dragon balls with me?"
Both Chi-Chi and Gine were caught off guard.
"R-really?" She asked.
"Yeah! Just because we can't get married now doesn't mean we still can't go on an adventure, right?"
A few seconds passed, then Chi-Chi threw her arms around Kakarot, squealing in joy.
"Oh, thank you, Kakarot, thank you thank you thank you!" She praised, oblivious to Kakarot almost choking from her grip.
The villagers were taken aback, but seeing their princess happy about something again made them applause. Ox-king was surprised as well but decided to clap along as his daughter and Kakarot made peace.
Gine stood there not sure what to say or do. They came here to stop the wedding, and already he's backpedaling with this girl? She wasn't sure how Chi-Chi could be as nice as Kakarot made her out to be in his stories. Gine was astonished at how Chi-Chi could be so emotionally volatile, seeing her go from joy to rage to despair to joy again in a matter of minutes. She wasn't sure what Kakarot saw in Chi-Chi, but she wasn't going to stop him since she's helped him enough already.
If he wanted to have her tag along on his adventures, then it was up to him.
After he made it clear that he was choking, Chi-Chi let go of him, embarrassed.
"Sorry! Was just so happy!"
"I know you are." Kakarot said as he rubbed his neck.
"Well, we better go." Gine said, trying to put an end to whatever sabotage Kakarot was making on her efforts.
"Aw, really?" Chi-Chi said with disappointment.
"Yes." She said firmly, not wanting to lose her patience with this girl or her son.
"I'm glad we got this sorted out." Ox-king decided to speak up. Gine didn't agree with these new developments but was glad they won't start a wedding right now.
"Me too." She bowed politely, "It was a pleasure to meet you, Ox-king."
"Oh, likewise!" He said in return, still hopeful that things will work out.
"Come on, Kakarot."
"Oh, alright." He said resignedly, then held Chi-Chi's hands.
"I'll come by to let you know when the quest starts."
Chi-Chi was more than ready to accept but stopped and looked up at Gine frightfully.
"Is-are you okay with this, Gine?" She asked, as if by extension wanting her permission to court her son.
Gine couldn't fathom why Kakarot suddenly wanted to continue contact with this girl again. But as long as they weren't getting married now, then her job was done, and they could do as they please short of making decisions they were too young for.
"Yes, I am okay with it."
"YAY!" She jumped with joy as if Gine had given her blessing, then turned to Kakarot alluringly.
"Then it's a date!" Chi-Chi said, then kissed him on the cheek. He normally wouldn't be embarrassed by such things, but his cheeks flushed red. Not wanting to be kissed in front of his mom.
"I'll see you later then." He said, collecting himself, then hopped on the Flying Nimbus.
"See you soon, my hero!" Chi-Chi called out from below as everyone cheered and faded into the background behind them.
On the ride home, they didn't talk for a good stretch of the way home until Gine broke the silence.
"Kakarot, why did you promise to meet her again?"
He looked over and smiled, "Because I didn't want her to feel bad, that's all."
Gine was confused, but then,
"You wanted to cheer her up?"
"Yeah!"
Gine thought for a moment. She didn't entirely like Chi-Chi with the way she let her temper get the better of her. But she did have to admit that girl had the fiery spirit that any Saiyan would find attractive in their counterpart sexes. Just like how Bardock first met her, so fiery in their arguments with each other turning into moments of passion. How could she have missed it?
But still, "You didn't have to do that, you know."
"I know..." He said, then added, "...but I wanted to."
"It's because she's a great fighter, isn't she?"
Kakarot felt caught. "Yeah, she is."
Gine chuckled. Sure, Kakarot was a kind-hearted soul that didn't hold ill to almost anyone, but he still was like any other Saiyan boy on the verge of manhood. They couldn't say no to a woman who could put up a good fight.
"Plus, she's the only other person pure of heart to ride the Nimbus." He said, patting the cloud they were sitting on. "She's a good person, Mom. No doubt about that."
Gine totally forgot that detail. Remembering that if she was good enough to ride it despite all of her horrific wrongdoings, then would a young girl be too? Could this cloud really be the ultimate judge of character?
She guessed it was.
"Well, if you really like her that much, you two can get married someday if you want to. But you should still wait until you are older and at least get to know each other better first."
It wasn't her giving her blessing for them to marry, but once he was old enough it will be a choice he has to make on his own.
"OKAY!" Kakarot said, an
d they continued on towards home.
Judging from his answer, she guessed the wedding won't have to be called off.
