Drabble Challenge #8: “Second Chances”

Title: Give Me Another Chance

Rating: PG

Word Count: 200

I screwed up. Bad. I didn’t mean for it to happen, but one thing led to another and next thing I knew I was eating dinner with a woman I barely knew. But I swear nothing would have happened afterwards even if Bulma had not been there with a business partner. God, she made such a scene. She was so wound up that she started accusing me of cheating on her for months. She’s such a dramatic brat!

But I still love her, and I did go out with that woman, so I’m guilty, though not in the length Bulma insists. I made a mistake, but I won’t let it happen again. I may have faltered, but Bulma is important to me. I don’t know why this temptation had to be what reminded me that I truly love her, but that’s not important. What’s important is that I make her know that before she does something stupid. It may sound paranoid, but sometimes I think I catch her looking at Vejita, of all people.

I called and left a message, and I’m sure she’ll call back and everything will be fine. She’ll give me another chance. I’m sure of it.
