Chapter 51

POUR IT ALL OUT


Phoebe looked at the screen of her computer, all the research all the calling and still nothing, she couldn't find out anything regarding Helga's whereabouts, she couldn't help but recall something Rhonda Wellington Lloyd told her just two nights ago.

Flashback

Phoebe looked away as Rhonda neared her, "Hi Phoebe"

"Hello" replied the petite girl

Rhonda tried to look composed as usual but the was she kept trying to smooth her skirt gave away that she was nervous "I found some things about Helga"

"Really?" questioned Phoebe, "I wonder what she said about me now" she couldn't help it but hearing the name Helga come out of Rhonda's lips set her off.

Rhonda disregarded the bitter comment, she closed her eyes and swallowed the knot in her throat "I hired someone to look for her a long time ago"

Phoebe didn't answer but looked interested so Rhonda continued

"He found out that Helga has been in a bit of trouble and"

"Trouble? Trouble? you know what?" seethed Phoebe, "I don't believe in anything you say"

Rhonda shook her head "I didn't mean to start out like that, what I wanted to tell you is that"

Phoebe started to walk away, trying to hardest to ignore what the Raven-Haired Girl had to say.

"Helga is in Hillwood" half-shouted Rhonda as the girl continued walking away "she's here"

Phoebe wanted to stop and ask but her pride didn't let her, she continued to walk home, she didn't need to find out anything from Rhonda, she was smart, she had a computer, she knew she could find her.

END OF FLASHBACK


"are you okay?"

Phoebe looked up, finding Gerald beside her door, "may I come in?" he asked

Phoebe smiled, Gerald after all these years of being together the was still so polite "sure"

"What are you thinking about? I knocked a few times and you were concentrating so much on your laptop"

Phoebe sighed "I was thinking about Helga"

Gerald threw his head back "ah, no, not his again"

Phoebe pouted and looked down, "I am unable to locate her whereabouts"

Gerald touched his chin, "maybe when Fuzzy Slippers comes back from Vacation, he can do a search on her again, I am still waiting on him to do a search on G"

"G" thought Phoebe "If Rhonda says that Helga is in Hillwood, that just makes it even more possible for G to be Helga, she still never finished her big plan, put it in a pause because the only person who can do it is refusing"

"Phoebe? Phoebe?" Gerald waived his hands trying to get her attention, "are you okay"

"Oh yes" replied Phoebe, "I just need to ask you a favor"

"anything" smiled Gerald as he wiggled his eyebrows "for my fair lady"


"You want me to ask Brainy to WHAT?" choked Gerald

"Please" replied Phoebe

"No Way! There is no way I am asking Brainy to breathe on G!" said Gerald as he shook his head no "why would you even want me ask him that anyway?"

"I can't explain" sighed the girl "but it's important to me"

Gerald didn't answer he just stared at her confused, this must be big Phoebe always told him everything, but it was such an odd request.

Phoebe kissed his cheek, "please"

Gerald signed closing his eyes, "okay, I'll try"


G's eyes fluttered open instantly, breathless from another nightly nightmare she grabbed the water bottle that was set on the floor next to her, as she drank, she couldn't help but wipe the sweat that covered her forehead, this was another reason she hated Christmas time, the energy draining nightmares.

Why were the nightmares this extreme?

Was it because everyone seemed too cheery around this time of year? No!

The sickening commercial side of the Holiday? No!

It was because "he" always managed to track her down wanting to be a family again.

This time she can't just sit back and think that maybe just maybe she could be lucky for once and that he wouldn't track her down, but that little visit he made her on Thanksgiving proves otherwise.

G took a deep breath, she expects him to come around soon, even if it means having to come back to the city that he once called a home.


The dark-haired girl just finished eating her breakfast when she heard someone pull their chair out and join her.

"Good Morning G"

"Morning" replied G as she looked at the source of the voice, he had his hair ruffled and wore a nice cologne.

Arnold scratched the back of his head, "about yesterday"

"forget it ever happened" said G as she stood up

Arnold pursed his lips together in thought "sure" he didn't know exactly what he expected out of this conversation but he had to admit it, for G just to dismiss it like that, it didn't feel that great.

His thoughts where cut short when their girl slammed both her hands on the table, "gotta go to Vitello's so, smell ya laters"

Arnold chuckled "Alright let's go"

"aren't you going to eat something?"

the Football-headed boy smiled "I already did"

"you lie" said G as she walked away

Arnold caught up and cleared his throat, "yesterday, when I knocked on your door, I wanted to ask you a question"

G smirked "shoot"

"well um" Arnold rubbed his hands together "how much do you think my bike is worth"

"Why are you asking about Black Shadow's price?"

Arnold chucked "I like the nick name you gave it"

G smacked her forehead in frustration she wasn't even going to correct him "so why?"

"I was thinking about selling it"

G shook her head disapprovingly "I thought it meant a lot to you?"

"It does but I kinda need the money"

G stopped her walking and raised an unseen-eyebrow "what for?"

"I um, I want to go to California" said the boy in a soft voice

G felt a knot in her throat, she didn't want to ask because she had a feeling that she knew the answer, but this is something she HAD to ask "why?"

"I really want to see how Helga is doing, It's the reason I have been saving up this whole time, to see her" breathed Arnold "she never answered my calls, nor my letters, and every time I get a hold of her sister Olga, she tells me that she's busy" said Arnold his voice cracking "I know something is wrong, what if Olga's husband treats her bad?"

"what does her Sister tell you?" asked G as she balled up her fists

"that she's in the Mall shopping with friends, last year, she told me that Helga went out for smoothies with her new friends, that she was addicted to this strawberry shake that just came out, Helga is allergic to strawberry she's lying"

G bit her lip hard, she wanted to scream, she wanted to pound Olga for being such a liar and leaving him hanging all this time, and now here he was selling something that is not only valuable money wise but sentimentally for what? Searching for someone who doesn't exist in Cali, she gulped composing herself "I bet she's fine, what if she doesn't even want to talk to you?"

"she doesn't have to, I just want to see her, even if she hates me, I love her and I just need to see that shes okay"

G stopped on her tracks, "you love her?"

Arnold nodded taking a step back facing away from her, he stared at a nice fluffy cloud in the sky, letting the words escape from his heart, "just like I love you"

G gulped, her heart pumped so loudly that she could feel it vibrate in her entire body, she didn't know what to say, she didn't want him to go, especially when California has nothing he is looking for, but she didn't want him near her either.

she doesn't want to love him.

she just can't!

"about One-Hundred Grand"

Arnold looked up to meet her eyes "what?"

"One-Hundred Grand, Good luck with your trip"

G stepped back, walking away, from the hurt football-headed boy, this was always been so easy

after all, shes always been a cold-hearted heart-breaker

but something was new this time

she has never broken her own heart before.


A/N: AHH! I know you guys hate me, because it was a short chapter? Because Helga/G is so Mean? Because Arnold got his heart broken? Because Helga/G got her heart broken, the misleading title?

I'll be working on another chapter today, I hope to update it soon.

REPLIES FOR SPANISH VERSION REVIEWS

Rin-Nisan: oh, no, I think I am blushing, this is such a beautiful compliment, thank you haha it makes me so happy that I don't know whether to cry of joy or scream with joy haha, Aw thank you, hum.. you'll see, I cant tell you haha, but no, Arnold suffered as well, and I will be adding a little more background to that in towards the end of the story, G didn't anyone because she didn't/doesn't want to let anyone in, and when she did (Arthur) it was a great disappointment, yes, I actually don't believe anyone should suffer waiting for someone to love them back, it actually happened to someone close to our family, he was an elder man who loved a woman and she never loved him back instead she used him got his hopes up then left him, in the end he took his own life and the woman could care less, he left behind loving friends who suffered his loss he was a good man and no one expected his tragic end, sorry for the story but your comment really reminded me of it.
