But you said we Saiyans don't love each other's partners?" He pointed out.
"I know, and they didn't. But... we were the exception I guess."
She figured it was as much of a guess. All other Saiyans in the bottom of the caste like herself were as cold as they can be, and she never knew another as gentle as she was. She had thought this over all her life, and she still couldn't figure it out.
At least until she met Bardock. Sure, he was a stone-cold killer like any other warrior, but she saw something special in him that made her look up to him. And when she learned he did indeed have a soft spot, there was some good in other Saiyans after all. Sure, he never said he loved her out loud, but she knew he did in his heart somewhere, for he definitely stuck around much longer than any other Saiyan ever would and went out of his way to protect her. It was almost un-Saiyan like.
"Exception... so, does that mean we are different? That I can stick around with whoever my partner is?" Kakarot said.
Gine forced herself to stop thinking about Bardock lest she risk getting upset in front of her son.
"Yes, Kakarot, you can. You are far kinder and more compassionate than any other Saiyan who has ever lived. I do hope you do find someone special to spend your life with and cherish, but you don't have to if you don't want to." She explained with a smile.
"Wow..." Kakarot mouthed in near awe as he took her words into consideration. He truly believed his mother was very wise and knew him better than he knew himself and was grateful to be her son.
But another question came to mind.
"So, how do the husband and wife become moms and dads?"
His mother's face paled.
"Uh..."
Well, this was an already interesting evening with trying to correct the concept of marriage. But now she may have to explain the concept of copulation to her son so soon...
"Ehem." Gohan coughed to interject. "So, uh, Kakarot, where did you hear that you were supposed to get married?"
Gine was thankful for the diversion from that awkward conversation. Then she recalled that Kakarot did mention that he almost had some marriage. However weird that sounded. Did that mean that...
She turned to her son before he could answer Gohan's question. "Kakarot, did promise to someone that you'll marry them?"
Kakarot thought for a moment.
"Oh." Was all he said, like he just remembered something.
"What?" Gine asked, worried about whatever it was.
"It's just that... I heard the word marriage from Chi-Chi. I thought it meant that she was going to have some kind of feast or something with me for saving her village. But... I guess she meant..."
Ah. Gine thought. Now she saw what the problem was.
"So... I'm supposed to spend the rest of my life with Chi-Chi?!" He said disbelieving, realization hitting him.
"I guess that's what she meant." Gohan finished for him nonchalantly.
Gine was blunter. "Son, you made a big mistake."
Yeah, she hoped her son would find a mate someday, and this Chi-Chi sounded like a very nice girl from what she heard in his stories, especially that if she was royalty in some way. But he was nowhere near ready to be wedded off this early in life.
"What am I going to do?!" Kakarot pleaded, looking worried. "I told her I would have that feast I thought she said it was when I went to go see her again!"
"It's okay, sweetheart. We can sort this out." Gine assured him. "We'll just tell Chi-Chi the truth."
"The truth?"
"Yes. You misunderstood what she said, so you tell her that you're not going to marry her." Gine explained.
"Okay, but..." Kakarot started, looking uncertain about something.
"But what?"
He continued. "But I promised her I would come back for that. I don't want to break a promise."
Gine felt touched that her boy was such an honest soul. But a mistake was a mistake.
"You made a promise on something you didn't understand. You shouldn't have to fulfill it if you were misled for any reason."
Kakarot thought about that, then reluctantly agreed. "I guess you're right."
"Okay then." Gine said, "When are you supposed to see her?"
He shrugged. "I'm not sure, I just told her that I would be back sometime."
"That's good, so not too much of a rush, but the sooner the better still." She said as she came up with a plan. "We'll go see her tomorrow and set things straight with her."
Kakarot frowned as he thought it over, then nodded. "Okay."
"Good." With everything settled, Gine turned back to go into the kitchen. She paused when she saw that the pot had stopped bubbling. They had talked for so long that they had forgotten about dinner and all the water had boiled away. A good two hours gone for that.
"Leftovers?" She asked them.
The next morning after they were finished with their morning chores, Kakarot and Gine walked outside into the cold morning air.
He stood there waiting for her, and she felt slightly annoyed at how he seemed to be waiting for her to solve his problem. Gine also remembered that she was still trying to properly teach him how to fly so she wouldn't have to come along on a task like this.
"So where do I have to fly you to-"
"NIMBUS!" Kakarot called into the sky, cutting her off.
A few moments later, she heard the put-put sound of his favorite yellow cloud that came out of nowhere and stopped right in front of them. Kakarot jumped on and glanced at his mother.
"Come on, Mom. Jump on!"
Gine starred at the yellow cloud and remembered something.
"Didn't you say you have to be pure of heart to ride this?"
"Yeah." Kakarot answered. "Why?"
Gine looked uncomfortable. "Well, I'm not sure if I'm..." She tried to repress the thoughts of all the things she felt didn't make her worthy of being called 'pure'.
"Sure you are! You're my mom. You have to be pure." He said plainly.
She was moved by his words, but oh how little did he know her.
