“But that's nothing to do with what happened to Goh…”

Trunks didn’t finish. His mother had cut him off with a harsh slap across the face. [...]

“W-Wh… Kaasan, why…?” Trunks sputtered from behind his hands.

“Keep your mouth shut,” said Bulma coldly. “You know better than to talk that way.”

Trunks shot his gaze around wildly, looking for some sense of sympathy. He got none. Even Goten was too shocked to see his friend crying to offer anything in return. Trunks set his eyes on the Ghost instead. Ghost wore no expression.

“This is all your fault!” He shouted at the air behind their heads. “I hate you! Why the hell don’t you just go away! You aren’t helping anyone! You’re not even here!!”

Trunks whirled around so sharply that crystal tears fell in his wake. Bulma followed suit, strictly guiding him back to the helicopter. No longer was Trunks in any mood to fly. He didn’t once look back.

Goten did though. He met Ghost’s eyes, surprised to see that Trunks wasn’t the only one crying.

“Don’t worry,” Goten whispered so that his mother wouldn’t overhear. “You’re here.”

“No,” smiled Ghost through the invisible tears. “No, I’m not.” -Still Here (Chpt 8)
