"Hey Marium, I'm going out for a drink. I'll be home late." Bob yelled to her over the blender.
"Huh? Sure." She said in her dull voice.
* * *
Meanwhile at school Helga was having a normal day. Bossing Pheobe around, and making nasty comments to her "o so beloved" football head. Stealing away to a corner of the P.E. courts, she pulled out the familiar heart shape locket she kept stuffed in her shirt, the only place she would trust that no one would find it. She gazed at the football head's face for a few seconds.
"Oh Arnold, why must we have to stay apart. If you only knew that I long to touch those lips of yours with mine. Taste the sweetness that is you." She said poetically.
Then a familiar heavy breathing sound came from behind her right shoulder. She punched Brainy in the face and stuffed her locket back in her shirt.
"Kriminny! Can I ever get any peace in this place. At least I'm ignored at home to pay tribune to my shrine."
* * *
The class made their way into Mr. Simmons room.
"Okay kids, today I want you all to think of a plant. Write why that plant is special to you and why."
"Jeesh, could this guy get any more stupid." Helga thought to herself.
Helga quickly wrote up her class work and pulled out a pink diary. For the next thirty minutes she wrote poems about her Arnold, this made her happy and ignorant to the reality of her Arnoldless life. Suddenly two policemen walked into the room and talked to Mr. Simmons.
"Um, Helga could you come up here?" Mr .Simmons sounded shocked.
Everyone in the class turned and stared at Helga as she rose from her seat, and followed her to the front.
"Miss, could you please step outside with us?" The policeman whose nametag read "Muller" said.
"Uh, sure." Helga said confused.
* * *
"Helga, your father has been in a horrible car accident." The other policeman whose nametag read "Valdes" said.
"What? Is he O.K.?" Helga said shocked.
"Helga I'm afraid he's dead." Muller said.
Slowly tears formed at the corners of her eyes and then they slowly, and quietly, started to trickle down her red face and fall to the ground.
"Please collect your stuff. We are to bring you to your mother at the police station." Valdes said.
* * *
If the news had broken her heart, this was worse. She now had to walk down the aisle, gather her stuff and leave. She quickly rubbed her eyes on her sleeve and went back into the classroom. Laughing nervously she went down the aisle to her desk.
"Well it seems Big Bob needs me to help him, a representative of the importance of beepers for kids I think." She said cheerfully and trying to hold back tears.
She walked to the front of the room, where Arnold sat, and passed in her work. As she turned to leave a new trickle of tears started to go down her face and Arnold saw them as she walked out the door. A worried face grew over him, why was she crying just because she had to help Big Bob?"
* * *
Helga was now sitting in the police station, joined with her mom. She still quietly cried, but her mother was a different story. Marium was soaked in tears. Her eyes were bloodshot. She cried so hard it was hard for her to breath. She had made her throat hoarse and swollen. It was impossible to use her nose. She was a wreck. Valdes came up and tried to ask questions about Bob, but to much prevail, he could not get a word out of her. So he asked Helga.
* * *
It had been a week since that day. Helga had not gone to school on excused absences. Marium had sulked in her room and the only reason Helga stayed home was to take care of her.
"Marium, if you don't stop sulking and get a job we're going to be broke." Helga said.
"Huh? Sure." Marium sighed.
"Are you listening?! We're going to lose the house!"
"Sure."
"Marium, you're a irresponsible mother, you've always been, and I see now you always will. Get over his death, I know it hurts, but we have to start living." Helga said as she stormed out.
Marium slowly turned over in her bed and stared at the door.
"Irresponsible?" She whispered.
* * *
The next day Helga went to Marium's room to make sure she was okay. But she wasn't there. In fact she wasn't anywhere in the house. So Helga decided to use this time for shrine dedication. About two hours later Marium came home.
"Helga! I have some news for you!" She shouted into what seemed like an empty house.
"Krimminy, of all the times she had to be responsible, why during shrine time." She thought.
She ran down the stairs and into the kitchen.
"What Marium?"
"I got a job."
"Wow. Has the world ended?"
"No Helga, I listen to you last night and decided you were right."
"I was right?" Helga said amazed. "So, what is it?"
"Farming."
"Farming?" she said half laughing. "Where are you going to farm around here?"
"Well, Helga, we're moving….
* * *
So what did you think? The story hasn't even begun yet, but I think this is a good intro. So please review. I don't got much time to write this with finals coming up and if people don't seem interested I might not write the next chapter until the end of school. Sayonara!
