Chapter 21

General POV

Mike stopped collaborating. The sole way for the Guppies to get information about Sandra. Now they're having a crisis reunion at Gobys house. "What are we gonna do now? Without the help of Mike it's gonna be impossible". Deema exclaimed. "I tried everything. The boy looked completely broken. He warned us that Sandra really wants to kill us so that's something. He also said that we'd not understand something and that we shouldn't figure it out or else we'll regret it". Gil told the rest. "Maybe something happened in the past that came back to haunt him". Oona said. "Maybe, but we first need to make another plan. I don't wanna stay her with my arms crossed, waiting for her to kill us". Gil said. "Anybody got some propositions, let's think about it". After some thinking Goby found something. "We could approach her in public and ask her why". "Nah, too risky. She might got a knife and stabs us all. And it will probably be considered as bullying if a passerby sees a whole group go to 1 girl. She'll then scream for help or something". "Maybe she makes all those plans against us with a friend of her. We could approach that person". "I think she acts alone. Mike told me when they had their conversation that she didn't want help from him". Gil explained. Everybody went back to thinking. "Ah bloody hell, if Mike was still with us… we could ask him to get Sandras diary or maybe files on her computer I don't know". "Can't you just hack her computer Nonny?" "No that's not possible, sorry". "Aaah f*cking sh*t!"

The guppies discussed a lot of propositions but the plans weren't good enough. They were discussing for 2 hours now. "I give up for today". Gil said. "We can't find any good things. It's been 2 hours. Can we continue tomorrow?" The rest nodded. Everyone sighed. "So, after the effort we relax". "What do you wanna do?" Goby asked. "I don't f*cking know. We are locked in our homes. We can't do anything. Oh!" Gil stood up. "Do you remember when we were little? We used to watch movies together. How long ago was that?" "That's true, I liked that time. Good idea Gilly". Molly said now standing next to her boyfriend. The group chose a movie to watch. The girls closed the curtains and the boys were making the popcorn. "No girls. We will prove you 3 that boys can cook too, even if it's popcorn". Gil said. The girls giggled. "Okay chef Gil, you'll make the popcorn". "Okay boys. To the kitchen". Gil said enthusiastically. The girls giggled even harder. "D*mnit Goby. you put too much oil in the frying pan. Nonny can you turn on the gas stove? I'll search the corn". "The stove is on, hurry up with the corn". "I got it". Gil said victoriously while holding corn in his hand. He threw the entire corn in the frying pan. "Uh, do you make popcorn like that Gil?" Goby asked. "Don't worry, I'm an expert". While the boys were looking at… what they are making, the girls were waiting in the living room. "Do you smell that? It smells like corn. And oil". Deema said. "Yes I smell it to". Oona said. "Oh no. Popcorn is so easy to make. They had one job". The girls entered kitchen. They looked down and saw a frying pan with oil in it and a big corn. "It's taking a bit longer than expected". Gil said. "Gilly… You know how to make popcorn right?" Molly asked. "Yes honey?" Gil said with a smile. The girls all began to laugh extremely hard while the boys were just looking at them. "Is this wrong?" Goby asked. "Yes it is Goby. If you want popcorn you don't throw a whole corn in it, you put dried corn kernels in it". Molly said while laughing hard. Nonny and Goby looked at Gil with a bit of anger. Gil saw that. "Oh come on guys. I… I… okay I don't know how to make popcorn. But the girls will show us right?" The girls stopped laughing but couldn't help but smile. "Okay, we'll do it. Go wait in the living room". Molly said. "You're so Gil, Gilly". Molly whispered to her Gil. "Yes haha ok now please forget about this sigh". Molly giggled.

The girls (successfully) made the popcorn and everyone enjoyed as well as the movie. The movie just ended. "That was nice". Gil said. "Yeah, I enjoyed the popcorn too. You didn't eat much of it Gil? Do you have a bad experience with it?" Deema asked playfully. Gil looked annoyed but everyone laughed. "It's getting late, I'm going home". Gil said ignoring Deemas question and everyone's laughter. "Oh come on Gilly, we'll stop laughing about it". Molly said. "That's gonna be hard but ok". Deema whispered too Molly but everyone could hear it anyways. "You might go with him Molly, he's a little tense". Molly rolled her eyes. Everyone except Goby and Deema stood up to go take their jackets. "Now that we're alone, do you wanna see MY favorite romantic movie hmm? You know what I'm talking about". "Ah, uh eu". Is everything Goby could say. He actually hated that romantic movie but didn't know how to tell it to Deema. "Good luck Goby. Enjoy THE film". Gil said smirking. Goby gave Gil a fierce look. "Finally they left. Time for the movie!" Deema said enthusiastically. Goby sighed.

The four other Guppies were all walking home. They talked about everything and nothing. Now they arrived at the park. "Bye guys. See ya later". Gil and Molly said to Nonny and Oona. The two waved back. "You see that? that looks like a silhouette of a person. It is following Oona and Nonny". Gil said. "It's just a person from their neighborhood too I'd think". Molly said.

"Listen to that silence". Oona said. "It's actually quite terrifying". Nonny nodded. "But you like silence huh?" Oona asked to Nonny. "Yes". Nonny answered. "Hey!" Oona said. Nonny looked around. "The pond. How long has it been?" "I go there to spot frogs but it was winter so". Nonny said. "Well it is spring now. Let's go take a look". The two walked to the pond sitting next to it. "There a frog. It's swimming". "He's beautiful. I wonder what's inside it". Nonny said with a serious look. "You're kidding I hope?" Oona said. Nonny smiled. "Don't worry, I don't harm anybody". 'unless they harm you' he thought. The two continued searching. But suddenly: "NONNY!" Oona screamed. Nonny got knocked out from behind. "Hi Oona, we meet again". Oona looked around and got knocked out too.

"Good girl. You can only have 1 good child".
