Time Flies

Preface

Chapter 13. I might have been unclear about what you can expect for this chapter. With the end of the chapters focused around Deema and Goby, it's now the turn of Nonny and Oona. Let's begin and enjoy.

Chapter 13

General POV

2 weeks have past. The Guppies finished their final exam and all together exited the school. "What ya gonna do this afternoon you all?" Oona asked. "Goby and I are going to my house watching some series and recovering from the exams haha". Deema answered. "I'm gonna purchase a hot drink with Molly". Gil said. "Okay, I see…" Oona said awkwardly, regretting asking it. "How about you 2? Aren't you gonna do something… together?" Deema said playfully. Nonny looked questioningly at Goby. Did Goby talk about what Nonny said to him to the others? Yes he did! But Nonny doesn't know that. Goby looked back in a comforting way but Nonny looked a bit pissed. Goby became nervous and tried to hide in the conversation, unfortunately for him, he says really bizarre things when stressed. "Yeah, you 2, together, hèhè. Don't need to become too personal, euhm… Oh! You can go euh, share food! Hot food, yeah with the cold weather and…" Goby got interrupted by the others. Normally, Goby was good at staying cool and calm, but now he totally flipped. Gil was the only one to laugh a bit. "Share food, Goby? That sounds like communism to me but ok!" Gil said stereotypically. Everyone looked at him with a look of: 'Dude, why?'. Nonny was looking even more pissed and angry but in his own way. He was looking like: 'Good job dude, you had 1 job'. Molly made a wink to Oona. Oona agreed, took a deep breath and: "That could be fun actually". Nonny looked shocked and a bit impressed. "You want to?" Oona added. "Euhm, I'm sorry Oona I I… I got some math to do. Yeah you remember that math problem with potatoes? Exactly! Need to finish that one hèhè". "Nonny, the math exam was 1 week ago". Gil said. "Oh yeah true but I I mean in practice. My euhm… uncle has potatoes to plant and he asked me so yeah… I'm sorry, another time maybe?" Nonny ran away, leaving the whole group behind. "Planting potatoes? It's winter". Molly said. "Planting potatoes? That sounds pretty communist to me". Gil said ironically. "Shut up with your communist jokes Gil, you'll probably not even succeed the history exam and I'm sure you don't know what true communism is". Deema said. I've studied a lot for that. So I'm making someone pissed with my jokes? Are you a little bit communist Deema hmmm? By the way communism is all about sharing. Voila, there you got the definition". Gil said. Everyone face palmed and went in different directions. "Wait Molly! I'm coming with you remember?"

2 weeks later, the school organized an excursion for the class of the Guppies. They will visit a skyscraper and watch the whole town from the top of it. The class of the Guppies were visiting the building for 2 hours. "This is very boring; I hope the view is better". Molly said, the other agreed. After some time, their teacher said they would stay for lunch on the highest floor. They could buy things from the cafeteria there. Nonny was on the roof looking down the city. Gil and Molly were standing at the other side. "Look that's our street and there is your house". Gil said to Molly. "And your apartment. This is beautiful Gilly". Molly said. She put her head on Gils shoulder while looking around. Oona approached Nonny from behind. "Nonny?" "Yes Oona? What's the matter?" "I… It's hard to tell but… I can't hold it any longer. I love you Nonny!" Nonny looked shocked and didn't know how to answer. He remained silent. "You are not even happy? You don't like me is that it?" Oona said with sadness. "I I… Oona, I'm not ready…" tears were forming on Oonas cheeks. Oona walked to the edge of the roof, looked down and… "No Oona don't!" Nonny screamed while running towards her. But it was too late. Nonny woke up from his nightmare. "Jesus, this is horrible. I must do something; I need to mentally prepare. I don't wanna end like the Nonny in my dream, alone…

Goby POV

Today I'm gonna do nothing, just stay in bed. This idea was wiped away when I heard my phone. It was a message of Nonny, he asked if he could talk to me this afternoon. I agreed. He also texted that I had to ask Gil.

"O boy, what is Nonny gonna tell us today?" Gil said. "He may finally understand Quantum mechanics, I don't know". There he arrived. "Hey Nonny, how is it going?" "Bad as f*ck". He responded. "Okay, then you'll probably tell us. That's the reason why you called us". "Correct, I'll immediately begin". Nonny told us his nightmare and how much he doesn't want that to happen. "One hell of a story Nonny, I'm sorry for you". Gil said. "Thanks, but what I need is a mental preparation". "We'll help you with that Nonny I promise". I responded. "Thanks". "Now, let's begin". Gil said. "You know, you must act emotionally and take it easy, and then hit at the good moment. Also talk about how good friends you are and remember her the best moments you had with her in the past". "You mean, I must admit like you did?" "Exactly!" "Okay, I'll think about it, and you Goby? Anything to say?" "I think you better just go to her on the most random moment and admit all. She'd be completely overwhelmed by emotions. But I think that you don't need to take an example of us. Gil could admit because of the circumstances, same for me. And Molly, Deema and Oona are all different and will react differently. Or we could also ask the girls for help, they might know more of Oona. It's hard I know it, but for now you need to prepare mentally. What I mean by that is that you must be ready at any moment in case she asks you about that subject. Don't let your nerves drop and look her straight in the eyes and most importantly: tell her the truth at that moment. I'm 99,9% she likes you like you like her, trust me". "Yes yes, are you done Goby?" Gil said. "Shut up Gil". We looked at Nonny now. "I'm sure I'll find a way, for now how do I prepare mentally?" "Watch some videos on the internet". Gil said. "Don't listen to him, I'll help you with it". We all looked happy and after some hanging and talking, we all went home.

Gil POV

"I'm gonna catch you!" I said. "No, you're not haha". Molly said. Molly was at my house when we saw a big pile of snow forming outside and we decided to go to the park. I was chasing her now because she took 1 of my gloves. "I'm faster than you". "Not the case now!" I kept running and finally had her. We fell on the ground and rolled ourselves in the snow. I was still struggling with taking my glove back. "If you don't give my glove back, you'll not be able to watch series at my home later. And not watching series means the other things too huh?" "Okay here have it". Molly said laughing. "Now, you're in a bad position, and I need a revenge to take. You like Tickling?" "No, please no!" she screamed while I tickled her. She couldn't escape so I stopped after some while. "Finally, I can't stand up, I spend all my energy to laughing". "I'll drag you home". I said. "Funny". She said. "I lost a glove, can you search for it Gilly? It's probably over there". "Why would I not do it for my Molly?" I began searching for her glove who probably fell of when we fell in the snow. I saw it in the snow, strangely all the snow around it was mostly gone. I took the glove and underneath it there was a small note. It said: "You'll regret everything!" I was shocked and confused. I ran back to Molly who was standing up. "Here is your glove, and I found this note underneath it, is it from you?" "What does it say? You'll regret everything!? What? I haven't done that". "I'm sure you didn't, all the snow around your glove was partially gone in the shape of a circle, somebody put it under it. But who?" "I have not idea Gilly, but it's getting late and cold. Can I still stay at your home? We can watch series together". "I hoped you were going to ask that, that note shocked me a bit and I need some… détente hmm?" We walked side by side to my house. I suddenly remembered. That note could be Sandra. If that's the case, she's after me and she is a crazy person. The note's writing is still visible, I might need to compare it with something Sandra wrote down. But I'm not gonna tell this to Molly for now, she too would be shocked…

Is Sandra coming back in the next chapters? Probably. I'll try to combine Sandra's entry with NonnyxOona affairs. Tensions might rise in the future. This chapter was also finished on 1st of January 2020. I hope you liked it and I'll be writing more in 2020. Goodbye!
