The man's words stuck to her as if they were glued there, unable to get unstuck.

___

"I hope I'll get to see real snow sometime. "
Raditz smiled truly for the first time in a while. Childlike happiness had practically dripped like fluid off of him.

But.. Eventually, all good things come to an end.
___

Today, the nurse had a bad feeling in her gut. Like always, today was another day, but she didn't know what was wrong. She got dressed and ate breakfast, ready for the job, like normally.

On her way to her job, she hummed happily to the tune from the radio, not knowing her favorite patient had hit his head.
___

Walking into her office, she was greeted with a sight, alright. Her patient, all pissed and fuming, was glancing at the bloody bandages strewn across the room's floor.

"Oh my.. "
She gasped in shock, as he looked at her. His face was mostly calm-looking, except for his mouth, which was bearing fangs in anger at the bandages that couldn't get off his body.

"You! Where were you last night? "
He half-yelled, needing her answer immediately. She gulped and sat down on his bed.
"I went home. You know I always leave for the night.. I don't get paid to stay during night shifts.. "

To this end, the man frowned as if remembering something. He held out his now-healed rough hand to the woman. She slowly reached to grab it, feeling warmth and gentleness radiate off of him. (See what I did there? Raditz? Radiate? Never mind😅)

"We should go together. "
The nurse piped up at this.
"Where do we go? "
The silence was pinpoint, but the patient didn't seem to mind it as much as the nervous nurse.
"To my home planet, planet Vegeta. "

Even if the name was funny, she couldn't help but laugh inside. She kept a neutral face, slowly nodding, as her patient had the strength to hurt her if she disagreed. 'Where did the gentle and sweet Raditz go? ', she thought, slightly frowning.

"Alright, get dressed into something proper, and meet me at the roof around lunchtime. "
He requested, and she agreed, wondering what would happen then. Will he try to kill her? She would be pretty defenseless, as her ki wasn't as strong as his. In a moment, she realized something. He's way off the Earth's chart for ki, so he must actually be from the vegetables planet.. It must be why his name sounds like the word Radish. Maybe all their names are based on vegetable. I wonder if there's also fruit based names... Anyhow, I should probably get ready. I might as well eat lunch while I'm at it.

___

Lunchtime in the hospital had just started, and the saiyan man flew to the moon. He was capable of killing these bugs, as he called them, but for the sake of being somewhat out of sight, he decided not to. Quickly, he turned on his scouter and clipped it to his ear. Reviewing his last entry, it turns out he sided with the Earth people for 2 years. Hell, it seems he even fought Vegeta and Nappa, in the end making them forgive him and promise for another fight once they or he visit each other. As weird as it seemed, it looked like his life on Earth was pretty interesting. Not much on fighting unless it's for training, but he promised himself and his family, which he was surprised he had, that he would avenge and revive his younger brother, Kakarot, or now known as Goku. But, as Frieza decided to get the Dragon Balls himself, they fought a huge battle. That's what surprised him. Here, on this puny planet, are some wishing orbs that even the emperor of the universe wanted. Either way, he had to return to planet Vegeta, to.. Reunite with his family. But in order to do that, for some reason, he needed that woman with him. His Earth memories kept him surprised, though. How much can a person change by just hitting their head.
Right then, the woman appeared.

___

A light training chestplate with a pair of shorts caught his eye first. It looked as if of Koralur culture, even if not quite fitting the color scheme. The man opened the pod, there was not much space, but enough for two people. Hell, he could even have put 3 Y/n's in there if he had that many. He laughed inside himself, and motioned for the lady to sit first. Afterwards, he sat down as well, kind of surprised that there was still enough space for him left to claim.

Setting the waypoint back to planet Vegeta, he contacted Nappa and Vegeta, whom he's joining back.

'Today was another day.'
