Time passed and the wedding day was getting close. Helga and Arnold's marriage had become talk all over the TV, newspapers and radio. Helga chose her best friend, Phoebe to be maid of honor. No, Helga didn't invite Olga. She didn't want Olga to be her bridesmaid. This is why she chose Phoebe instead.

"I love romance, Helga," Phoebe said.

"He seems to be a good parent if we're going to have children in the future," she said.

"I think so too, Helga."

"He is a bus driver now," she said in case Phoebe didn't know what Arnold has been doing.

"I haven't seen or talked with Arnold since college."

"I remember. It was hard for him to choose best man, so I gave him a suggestion. The best man Arnold even agreed that Gerald sounds perfect to be a best man for your wedding. I'm sure he's already asked him by now."

"Probably," Phoebe agreed and asked another question.

"I have another question, Helga."

"What's that?" she asked.

"Does Olga know you're getting married soon?"

"Of course she doesn't. She doesn't need to know everything, Phoebe. Maybe Dad or Mom probably told her instead and asked her to come out to Hillwood for the wedding. I can't tell them not to ask her. It's already too late for that."

"No, it's not, Helga. You should've asked her to be the bridesmaid instead of me."

"It's my wedding, and I can choose who I want for a bridesmaid," Helga reminded her.

"Sorry. I was just suggesting ideas, that's okay."

"I know."

"I'm sure Arnold's been a successful bus driver, Helga. Is he still here in the boarding house where he grew up?"

"No way. He was able to find somewhere else."

"Whereabouts?" Phoebe asked.

Helga told her.

"Oh. Wasn't it where Rhonda used to live?"

"I think so. At least he's not a snob like Princess was when we were in the fourth grade."

Phoebe agreed with her friend.

It has been years since they have seen their other classmates. Phoebe is still around in Hillwood, but the girls don't see each other very much since they've both had busy schedules. They still talk once in a while to bring each other up - to - date. They were out to lunch on a Saturday. Helga thought that today was the perfect day to get together with Phoebe so she could tell her about the wedding she would soon be having with the football head. They probably figured out by now that Gerald and Arnold talked about the wedding as well, which happens to be true.

"Have you started looking for ideas on a dress, Helga?"

"No. I asked Mom and Dad if I could use her wedding dress."

"I'm sure it's an old one by now," Phoebe agreed.

"Have you tried it on yet?" Phoebe asked.

"Not yet. I'd like to have you over so you can tell me how I look in Mom's dress."

"We can do that today if you want, Helga."

"I was thinking of that too. Should we do it after lunch?"

"Of course, Phoebe. We can do that. Do you want to take my car or do you want to bring your car?"

"Let's just drive separately, Helga. It'll be easier for both of us."

Helga saw her friend made sense and agreed.

"We'll do that then. You want to pay for lunch?"

"Sure. I'd be happy to," Phoebe answered.

Then they finished talking about the wedding. When they were finishing up, their waitress came by with the bill.

When Phoebe paid the bill, Helga offered to do the tip. That worked out well between the two friends. Now it was time to drive over to Helga's house.
