Bulma was standing in front of a fashion shop window in the mall. "How much longer?", Whined Vegeta, who was standing behind her with the four shopping bags in his hands and shuffling his feet impatiently, "We have been here for three hours!" But his girlfriend only focused her gaze on the beautiful purple Dress and wondered for a long time whether to buy it. "Isn't that dress pretty?" She asked Vegeta for advice. "Yeah ..." he grumbled. "Take a look at it first! And be honest!" Said Bulma and pointed to her request. “It's really nice!” - “Should I buy it?” She asked uncertainly. "Yes, but that's the last one for today, okay?" He advised her and Bulma scurried into the shop. After a short wait, she came out overjoyed with a new shopping bag and said: "Well, that's enough for today! One dress, three pants and five tops ... oh, hi, Yamcha!" They met Yamcha, Bulma's ex and Close friend of Group Z. "Everything ... okay?" asked Bulma uncertainly when she noticed the unhappy expression on his face. "Hi.Nah ... Sara broke up with me ... ", he replied quietly." ... Because of such a slimy idiot ... "She felt sorry for Yamcha, he really hadn't had any luck with women for a long time Bulma put a hand on his shoulder and tried to comfort him: "Cheer up! If you want to talk - I always have an open ear for you! "Yamcha nodded and replied," Thank you. I might call you. "After walking on, Vegeta said to Bulma," What a wimp! "-" Vegeta! Don't be so numb! Yamcha has been really unlucky lately! ", she defended Yamcha." I'm already calm. Come on, let's go. "




In the evening Yamcha called. Bulma offered to come to the Capsule Corporation so they could talk about everything. A little later he was sitting with her on the sofa in the living room. Sadly, he told her everything and Bulma listened carefully. "And I thought she was finally the woman I've been waiting for all my life ... I loved her after all."Bulma hugged him and encouraged him." Don't be sad, it'll pass. "For a moment Yamcha felt better. That hug warmed his heart. With Bulma he always had the feeling that she always listened to him and really liked him. He thought of the old days when they were a couple. And up once he wondered why it hadn't worked out with them. They got along well as friends. But why not as a couple? "What if we were still together - would everything be the same as it was back then? When it started?" he asked himself. He closed his eyes and smelled her delicate scent. "What is that feeling that is in my heart? Is it the consolation she gives me? Is it perhaps the gratitude for this good friendship? Or." is it just ... an insane feeling that ... passes again? '


"Yamcha?"


Carefully she tore him from his deep thoughts. "Everything's fine ... thanks for listening to me ..." he said nervously and stood up."I'll get in touch." - "Bye! And don't take the matter to heart!" Said Bulma and waved to him.


Outside the door, Yamcha had to take a deep breath. `I'm just glad that she is my best friend! But pictures from the past kept popping up in his head. He and Bulma ... their first meeting - which wasn't very romantic - Goku had fought him ... their first kiss ...


Yamcha shook his head. 'What are these memories for now? I'm very fond of Bulma, still - but that's it! `




Yamcha couldn't turn a blind eye that night. He was plagued by the insecurity of his feelings about Bulma and a guilty conscience. He knew how happy Bulma really was with Vegeta and vice versa. He felt a slight jealousy. `The separation back then was so sudden ... 'He wondered if he might still have a tiny chance with Bulma somewhere. `We were such a happy couple back then ... and we went through so many beautiful things!'he thought and realized that it was love. But would he be able to tell her? And if so, how would she react? And what about Vegeta?


Yamcha closed his eyes and made up his mind: `` I have to tell her! I still love her ... `
