Field Trip To Cousin's Farm
Chapter 1
"Oh this is just great, football head!"
She turns towards Arnold with her scowl of annoyance. He just rolled his eyes and turned back to looking out the bus window to see rows after rows of corn stalk sliding by in at 65 miles a hour.
Couldn't there be something other than corn? I know we don't eat this much corn in Hillwood. Maybe I should help start a fair for corn... Yea! And we could have a pageant with a corn queen and king...
He starts to day dream about Hildia and him being queen and king, dancing under the moon light in a field of corn with his silly smitten grin. While Helga was droning on and on about how she wasn't in the least excited to see Arnie while looking at Phoebe and Gerald talking pleasantly.
"I can't believe Mr. Simmons paired me up with you to go to this stupid place! I mean all I see is corn! Is that all they eat is corn?! No wonder your cousin Arnie is so wierd. It's probably because that's all he has ever eaten! I'd be boring and bland if all I ever ate was corn."
She turned towards him and saw his face.
Oh my sweet dear Arnold! Why can't you look at me that way? If only you knew how I felt about you, maybe I would be the lucky girl you fall for! Wait, who is he thinking about that way?! I swear I will ring out here like a over used paper towel! Who does that girl think she is?! She has captured my love in a spell that I have been working on for years! Who is this wicked witch that did this to my Arnold?! Who-
Her thoughts were interrupted by Arnold slurring something out loud about the dance he was imaging with the girl he hoped he would see again this time, and make her fall for him instead of his cousin Arnie.
"Oh Hildia, your so sweet and you have the most beautiful poetry..."
Helga's eyes widened in shock.
The girl that Arnold is dreaming about is, is... my cousin Hildia! I thought I could trust her! She has always loved Arnie just like I have loved Arnold! We even compared poetry and discussed what we could use for our shrines! What, how, could she do this to me!?I swear when I get my hands on her she isn't going to see the light of day!
"Are you ok, Helga?"
She looked over at Arnold. He looked concerned seeing her face go from shock to anger in a flash.
I wonder what happened to her. She seemed her normal self about a couple minutes ago and now she looks like she could bite off the bus seat in front of us.
"Yea. I'm fine Arnold-o."
She crossed her arms, leaned back in the seat, and turned her head towards the other window across the bus. She just looked really, upset. Arnold knew better than to ask though. He didn't feel being yelled at today. He was in too good of a mood.
"Whatever you say Helga."
She turned her face back to the seat in front of her and looked down at her pink Adidas. Her face fell in sadness and confusion. Arnold looked over at her and looking at her face like that made him feel sorry for her. He might not know why she was in the stupor, but he had his own thoughts.
"Yea. Whatever I say Arnold... I'm going to go and talk to Phoebe for a while. I'll send tall hair boy back here with you if you want. I just need to get a change of scenery..."
He put his hand on her shoulder and she lifted her face to meet his eyes. He couldn't believe what he saw there. It broke his heart to see she was in so much pain. He hated seeing anyone, even Helga, in so much pain.
"What's wrong Helga? You know you can talk to me about it. I'll understand."
She looked back at her shoes then got up and let his hand fall back to his side. She looked him in the eyes.
Oh Arnold. If only I could tell you I would, but sadly I must keep using my brain instead of my heart and be mean to you. Oh, those green jellybean eyes are so beautiful! I could get lost in them forever.
She forced to change her face to annoyance and aggravation at him. While putting her hands on her hips and shoving her face in his.
"You wouldn't ever understand Hair boy! Can't you stay out of everyone's business?! There ARE some people who don't want or need your help! Now, do you want me to get Geraldo or not?! "
He sighed and looked down at the empty spot she was sitting in just moments ago.
Why can't she just be like her cousin? Sweet nice and kind. No, she can't let anyone see her other self. The one that is the real Helga. The one I want to be friends with...
"Yea. Sure Helga. Thanks."
He turned his face back out to the window focusing on other things then the corn outside but towards the girl with the false identity walking away from him.
