~Helga's Diary of Day Four~
It was another horrible day, today. It was even worse than yesterday. We both slept in, giving us no extra time to practise for the test. We pleaded with Emotion Central to give us extra time to practise - but they wouldn't give us any. They said that two days was enough time to practise, and that extra time wasn't needed. After what I had to put up with yesterday, they could have gave me an extra hour to practise, but they probably wanted Arnold and me to lose.
I knew right away that it would be a disaster - but Arnold stayed hopeful. He thought that completing the task was still possible and that we should both try our best. I did want to try my best; I wanted Arnold to at least know that I had tried. That would be a great way to get him to like me more, but unfortunately, events didn't go the way that I had planned.
I decided to go first, I tried my best, shooting the balls into the net. I knew that it was hopeless - every shot missed. Arnold still thought that I could do it, he believed in me, but I didn't believe in myself. I found myself getting worked up, thinking about all of the times that Emotion Central have used me while I have been here and I also thought about how the press didn't care about my feelings. This made me so angry, that I forgot about trying my best, about trying to please Arnold. My anger and rage took over. I picked up all of the balls in turn, and threw them over the large fence in the garden.
I shouted at Arnold - again I took out my anger on the one, true person who lights up my life. I stormed into my bedroom and stayed there until it was almost 3 PM. I had time to think while I was alone in my bedroom - I regretted what I had done - and when I finally left my room - I decided to apologise to Arnold.
I pleaded with him to give me another chance - but he refused. He was still angry. I have never seen Arnold act in a stubborn way before - usually he always wants to be friends with everybody and doesn't hold a grudge - but not today. I think that I pushed him too far.
When Arnold refused to accept my apology, I found myself shouting at him again. I told him how I was having a bad day and that he should understand that - but for some reason he couldn't understand what I was saying. I think that this is because the pressure of us both being put into this situation is affecting him more than I realised. I have been slightly selfish in the four days that I have been staying here. I have only thought about how I am feeling - I have forgot that Arnold could be taking this badly on the inside, but not showing it.
Because we failed our task, Emotion Central made us perform a Forfeit Challenge. It was to have a short game of Truth or Dare. At 9 PM, we still had to perform the challenge, even though we were both still not talking to each other.
Emotion Central "randomly" picked whether we were to ask each other Truth or Dare questions. They said that I had to ask Arnold a question that he had to answer truthfully. Still slightly mad at Arnold, I decided to put him in an awkward situation. I asked him how Gerald felt about Phoebe.
Arnold was reluctant to tell the truth at first, but realised that he had to, and he admitted to millions of viewers that Gerald had a crush on Phoebe. Then, Emotion Central said that Arnold had to ask me a question that I had to answer truthfully. My heart sank. I knew what he would ask. He asked me who I had a crush on. I couldn't tell the truth - it wasn't the right time. Not when we were both arguing. I sat in silence - but I could tell that Arnold was waiting for an answer.
I told Arnold that I didn't have a crush on anybody and I went into Emotion Central. I'm sick of the way that they are treating me. I told them something that I really mean - I want to leave this place. I want to go home. After that, I went straight to bed, ignoring Arnold.

I don't really have much to say about today - apart from the fact that it was a complete disaster. We failed our task because Helga gave up and threw our balls over the garden fence. She started to shout at me and then she stayed in her room for several hours.
When it was nearly 3 PM, she came out from her room and she wanted me to accept her apology - but I couldn't. She is acting completely selfishly - she doesn't care about how I feel. She doesn't understand that I miss being home, too.
We had to complete a Forfeit Challenge because we failed the task - a game of Truth or Dare. Thanks to Helga's question, I ended up blowing Gerald's biggest secret to everybody who was watching. In a few minutes, I'm going to ask Emotion Central not to screen that part. I don't want to betray Gerald.
In the middle of the game, Helga got upset over something - but I'm not sure what. Helga seems to have been very secretive since we moved in here. She refused to carry on with the game - went into Emotion Central and came out looking very upset and then she went straight to bed.
I'm still mad at Helga - but if I am making her upset - I'll try and be a lot more friendly to her tomorrow.
