"Yor getting tallier," Dib obsevrved, "Um? It seems so but we've been over this before, Dib human." Zim said,"Why have you brought it up?" Dib srugged indiffrently and sipped his s. At that time Gaz came down the stairs, sckull madalion bounceing up and down off her black tshirt as she smiled ,"Hey Zim," she said sitting down beside a sixteen looking Zim, he turned and smiled back at her. He put his arm up behind her on the couch. Dib didn't notice, he shoke his soda slowly from side, finding it emty he got up to fetch anouther. Gaz shrunk closer to Zim's side and rest her head on his shoulder. Dib was taken aback by this witch sparked an intrist in what was going on around him. Just then he was snaped back to reallity, the phone was going, nuts he droped the subject for the time being. But what was that? Whatever mybe it was just his mind playing tricks on him. Oh well, to the phone.

"Son?" His Dad's voice startled him.

"Yeah Dad, home late again?"

"No actually I'm going to be early."

"O-okay" His voice had been so long sence the professer had been home so much had changed over the last few years. These days he wasn't sure about anything anymore."Is something wrong son?" His father's voice invaded his thoughts."No...that...thats great dad." "Okay, see you at eight." "Yeah okay." he placed the phone back where it came from. He headed back to the liveingroom abandoning the thought of his soda.

Back at his house Zim sat on his sofa, from somwhere in the house Gir's freaked voice was heard indecateing he was amused by some unknown prized human filth, or a sitcom. Ha funny he should think of a sitcom, thats just the kind of life he was living,, just like one of those crazed dramas of this world. a sad unaware boy sent to die on an unknown planet, living a lie, finding out it was all just that, a lie and nothing more. And all it would ever be, a lie.

At the Membrain house, Gaz sat in her room. The world was showing it's uglyness by sending, yet again, anouther storm her way. The wind knocked on agaist her window agressively. Just then, the front door opened downstairs, it was her dad coming hme early. They had to send Zim home early, too, she could remember the time they had spent today, though short, it was pleasent. She could of sworn Dib saw, and that the world had sent her dad home. Just to send him away and leave her alone. Again, but what could you expect, in the world, there where people. People who where not ment to belong, unfortunitly, she was one of those people. Would she always be?
