Okay, you guys, here is the next installment. I hope you all have been
enjoying this story with me. Thank you for replying. here we go.
The next few days were unreal to Helena. Her and Arnold talked and talked about the old times at PS 118. She told him about the times she had helped him, she told him about her poems and she listened to him talk as well.
They were sitting in his old room in the boarding house. Lila and Arny had taken off earlier that evening. Their whereabouts unknown. Helga and Arnold sat, going through his old things and reminiscing over old memories.
"Remember that one April Fools Day in Mr. Simmons class when you tricked me into thinking you were blind?"
"I was blind in the beginning."
"Yeah. I felt really bad."
"That was fun."
"For you." He laughed.
She looked at him. They just stared for a moment. And in that moment, Helga forgot about anything wrong that had ever happened to her.
For she knew, in that moment, Arnold felt exactly the same way.
Dear Tenni
Hello. It's me, Claye. I was just writing to you to say 'hello'. I am having fun here at home. I hope you and Anya are doing well. I can't wait till we can play again. Me and you and PoinDexter and Anya can have a lot of fun, write me back, okay?
See you later! Claye
Claye set down his purple crayon and folded the letter before placing it in the white business envelope that his father had gotten out for him. Claye looked at the envelope again and set it on the kitchen table for his mother to address when she got home from work.
"What'cha doin' Claye?" asked Gerald as he turned away from the TV.
"Nothing. what time does mother come home?"
"In about three hours."
"What?" Projected Claye. "She should be home earlier than that.that I know." He said, looking at the clock.
"Well. your mother was going to go to the doctor after work."
"Is she ill?"
"Well.no."
"She didn't have a check-up scheduled. I know. I am her second calendar."
"It was a surprise check-up." Said Gerald, awkwardly turning back to the TV.
Helga and Arnold spoke with Lila and Arny when they got home (from where they refused to say.) and they devised a plan as to what they should do now that Arnold and Lila were no more.
Lila and Arny would stay in the boarding house, but Arnold would officially own it. He and Helga would move into a new house, closer to the boarding house.
They set out right away to put the plan into action. Lila casted Arnold a sympathetically dramatic look, which, to Helga's delight, he ignored.
Okay, I shall update tomorrow, reply soon as you can, all right? Tell me how I am doing. Thanks a ton.
