A woman's frustrated sighs could be heard as she was in the kitchen. She had already cooked up about a dozen dishes for her goofy, sometimes idiot husband who always wants to fight and save the world rather than get a job and be like a normal man. She also happened to be cooking for her two sons, Gohan and Goten, in which she loved both very much. But sometimes the two were unbearable to control and they were always out on adventures and completely forgot all about the beautiful Princess Warrior ChiChi, who would always be lonely at home.

"Boys! Dinner is ready!" The raven haired woman shouts, but she doesn't hear the strong stomps. Where could they possibly be?! She suddenly heard them: outside of the house sparring as they punched and kicked and did all their signature moves. ChiChi groans in frustration as she soon goes upstairs and heads for her room. Maybe plopping down the bed and watching the flat screen television ought to breeze her mind out. She turns to a towel hanging out in particular. Maybe a bath? A soothing soft bath with bubbles and the sweet aroma of blossoming beautiful flowers?

RIIIIIIINNNNG!

Or not. That's okay, maybe someone ChiChi might know that is a great listener is calling her. She checks her small blue phone as she spots the name Bulma on the screen. She smiles. Finally, someone to talk to. Someone who would probably understand what she was going through!

⭐⭐⭐On Bulma's side⭐⭐⭐
A bluenette stood in her lab, trying to sort out all her latest inventions and trying to focus, but with her small purple haired son bugging her, it seemed impossible. "Mom! Mom! When can I see Goten? I really wanna see him! Mom! MOM!" The little boy tugged on her lab coat.

She, also sighs in frustration. "Trunks, go play with your thousands of toys or go bug daddy or grandpa and grandma. I'm busy right now, don't you see..." She says as she tries to fix the invention that broke. "But mom..." Trunks complains. After many minutes of babbling nonsense about Goten, Trunks gives up as he decides to go and seek out his grandparents. Bulma smiles at the peace and quiet she finally had to concentrate. Suddenly, all that was ruined.

"WOMAN!"

Or not. Bulma sighs as she puts the tool down and glance up. "What do you want you alien freak?!" She growls at Vegeta. "Why are you so grumpy woman? Why'd you tell the boy to go bug me?!" Vegeta slings the towel over his neck. Sweat surrounds his body as he stands shirtless wearing nothing but training blue shorts and shoes. Damn Vegeta! I don't even wanna look at your Saiyan body! "Yeah and what about it?! I've been doing all the parenting! It's not easy you know when your so called HUSBAND is not there!" Bulma growls. "Woman! Don't put ME in your little girl problems!" He turns his back as he heads for the door. "DAMN IT VEGETA I WISH I DIVORCED YOU!" She yells as Vegeta growls in anger. "Damn woman! Maybe you should've!" Vegeta storms out to do more intense training.

Bulma sighs in a mixture of sadness, lonliness, anger, and being misunderstood. Bulma pulls out her pink phone as she decides to dial ChiChi. Someone who will definitely listen.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"Hello?" ChiChi answers her phone as she masks her sadness. "Hey, Chi." Bulma can't mask it as well as ChiChi. "Oh hey, Bulls! Long time no talk...is something the matter?" ChiChi asks softly. Bulma sighs softly in relief.

"Trunks wouldn't stop bugging me, you see, I had inventions to fix and all." Bulma began.

"Sweet, I'm gonna have to see them later, and yeah? What happened?" ChiChi says sprawled on her bed.

"Well, Vegeta came in and as the usual, we both started arguing, and I ended up saying that I should've divorced him, and he said I should've..." Bulma says, almost breaking into tears on the other end.

"Awww, Bulma...and I thought I had it rough...but I can see you suffer a great lot." ChiChi says softly.

"We both suffer with our unhappy lives, Chi. Now what happened? I'm here to listen." Bulma sat down on a nearby chair.

"Well I was cooking for all three of my Saiyan men, and you know how frustrating it is to cook piles of meals when Saiyans have strong appetites." ChiChi began.

"Mhmm." Bulma nods. "But you have three boys to handle with food not two. So you're lucky." Bulma listens.

"Yeah, well, I called them for dinner and none of them came, and I came to realize all these things that Goku wasn't there for me, and how the boys go off on adventures...sometimes I feel lonely..."

"I feel ya ChiChi, how about we have a girl's night out, just the two of us, like old times!" Bulma says as her voice softens and brightens up.

"Bulma! That's a great idea! So, I'll see you at the café?" ChiChi smiles. Bulma nods as it became settled. ChiChi grabs a nearby purse as she dashes out to meet with Bulma. She slings her purse over her shoulder as she exits her house, her husband and sons still too busy sparring to even notice little ChiChi go off and take her leave. Bulma exits her Capsule Corp, without notice.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
The two sat and chatted as Bulma sighs and speaks. "You know, I always found your husband funny and clueless, but I always kind of liked that about him. I feel like I could handle him more than Vegeta...I...I don't mean it in that way!" Bulma gulps hoping her friend wouldn't get angry. ChiChi simply smiled. "No, no! You're fine! I feel the same with Vegeta, I feel like I could handle the angry arrogant type over Goku's frustrating personality." ChiChi smiles as the two take their leave and sit down at the park as ChiChi places her bag down.

For a while, it was quiet, and as ChiChi's purse was left slumped, the seven dragon balls made their way out as they were all together on the ground. ChiChi took the wrong bag! As the girls continued to babble, the two said:

"I WISH I HAD YOUR LOVE LIFE!"

But since the day was already dark, they couldn't tell the change that the dragon balls were making. They suddenly glowed as in a burst off into a distance, Shenron appeared, and before Goku and Vegeta could find out their wives were gone, it was too late.

"YOUR WISH HAS BEEN GRANTED!"
