So I got another chapter down! W00T! Hope ya like it!! Yeah!
Both boys walked in silence to Zim's house, (More like base then house...) hoping the other would start a conversation. Nothing but the soft crunch of snow beneath their feet filled their ears. No one was around them either. It seemed as though everyone had either disappeared or were inside.
"Zim?" Dib nudged the alien next to him. "Where is everyone?" Zim blinked once or twice, seeming he was coming back to reality. He looked around and shrugged.
"In their shelter-units I suppose."
"That's strange..."said Dib. Zim nodded in agreement.
"We are here, stupid hu-" Zim stopped. "Dib." Dib blushed and quickly opened the door to Zim's house to be greeted by Gir screaming and yelling and throwing cupcakes everywhere.
"Wow..." Dib pushed up his glasses with one finger.
"You now understand what I have to live with." Zim laughed. Dib followed him into the kitchen.
"Tell my more, about this 'mom' of yours." Zim said sitting down at the kitchen table and using air quotes. Dib sat down infront of Zim and sighed.
"Do I have too?"
"Yes. Now explain to Zim."
"Why?"
"Because Zim said so and you must obey the almighty Zim."
"Fine Zim, you win. If you MUST kno-"
"Yes, I must know." Dib closed his eyes and began again:
"When I was just a little kid my mother died, it was when Gaz was born. That was when I promised her that I'd protect Gaz. Even if it costed me my life, but now, Gaz hates me and whenever she looks at me a look of pure evil and disgustingness...." He sighed once more and fought away the urge to cry as tears began to form in his eyes. "She hardly looks at me anymore, it's hard to keep a promise to someone who's dead and someone ELSE who hates you."
"Oh,"
"Yeah,' –sniffle- "Oh.."
