Not An Exact Copy [Gohan x OC]

Ch. 19

Year One

Nachi really did not want to do this.

She'd rather face Frieza again than have to do this.

It's not like no one told her to do it, but it was for the best for her sake and everyone in this household.

So, with a deep breath, she went about in the kitchen to complete her conquest.

And that is, to be... civil with the one and only, Miss Bulma Briefs.

Most people who watched her and the blue-haired woman would think that she hated her. Well, she made that clear the day she told her and her daddy she was pregnant with Trunks, so it was to be assumed she felt that way.

What no one knew is Nachi's deep rooted problem.

When she'd seen Bulma getting too close to her daddy for her comfort, she became irritated at first. Who wouldn't when she's the only girl in her daddy's life and didn't need some harpy in the way of that?

So she kept it as such: irritation.

When Bulma told them she was pregnant, she became joyous. Joyous because that meant she'd stay away from her and her daddy so she can run off with that piece of scarface garbage she calls a mate.

But then, when she told them Vegeta was the actual father, she felt... anguished.

All she thought to herself that time, why.

Why her daddy, why did it have to be Vegeta?

So she resulted in lashing out, telling the woman she hated her with all her being.

During the woman's pregnancy, she avoided her like the plague and constantly stayed around Panchy or the cat they own, Scratch. She'd even leave Capsule Corps and go visit the Son family, not even bothering them with her problems for it was her own.

So it comes down to a question: Why does Nachi hate Bulma?

The answer: she doesn't.

She's terrified.

She's terrified of the prospect of having a mother figure in her life.

She'd already lost her real mother, what made her sure she wouldn't lose this one?

She hated herself for sounding so weak and pathetic with her own reasoning, and it sounded selfish on her own part, but she didn't care. She couldn't handle being close to another woman, and she did what she thought was best.

So she pushed the woman away, never allowing her to come to close to her heart. The only people who were allowed in was her daddy and Gohan.

But then... who said she needed a mother figure?

She confessed to Gohan her 'worries' and he told her, "Well, why not try to be her friend first? Or atleast be civil with her."

Which brings her to the now, as she spotted the blue-haired woman sitting at the kitchen table with a cup of coffee in hand. Her hair was mussed from sleep, wearing silk pajamas and reading the newspaper boredly.

Nachi herself was wearing a t-shirt Gohan had left over one time when she slept over, and a pair of shorts with socks reaching mid-thigh, with her tail wrapped around her waist. The weather wasn't warm, but it wasn't cold either so the outfit is enough to keep her cool and warm at the same time.

She cleared her throat to announce her presence, and Bulma took her eyes off the paper and looked over, smiling. "Good morning, Nachi!"

Nachi grunted before she took a seat next to her, setting her hands on the table and fidgeting with her thumbs. "... We need to talk."
