Chapter Two: A Shoulder to Cry on
Helga watched the snowflakes dance outside the window, as school started. Her arm slouched on the table as she sighed lazily watching the shimmering peices of ice with one eye .And watching the other people enter the classroom with the other, she could tell that everyone was there as suddnely a loud screech came from the the doorway.Laughing Rhonda screeched apon entering the room pointing over to Helga,
" are you still here?!, i thought you would of left by now! but then again i dont mingle with the rejects!"
Helga snorted and mumbled some along the lines of -shove a plant pot where the sun dont shine-, and turned away looking out of the window.
"im not finshed yet!" Rhonda shouted,to the back of Helga to continued to stare aimlessly out of the window. something about the snowflakes made her feel sad..
"i said im not talking to you!" Rhonda shouted, reaching out and pulling one of Helga's long pigtails. Helga snapped round, and grabbed hold of the wrist which held her hair,squeezing it and bending it back slowly, glaring.
"get lost bitch!" she snarled watching Rhonda flinch in pain then pushed her backward onto the floor, Rhonda's legs going up
in the air.
"im outta here.." Helga mumbled storming out of the classroom ignoring the corney threats from the other girls.
Helga walked out into the snowy playground untouched, and smooth like a blanket, smiled and walked out towards it, becoming lost amongst the snow.Why did she feel so down?,she wondered staring up at the sky. Things where so dull now Pheobe was in New Zealand with her family.She started to hum,
"i live my life...in shadow"
She stopped, where had she heard that from?, oh yeah that program she watched the other night. She sighed and hummed it again softly walking across the playground,
"i live my life in shadow, never the sun on my face
,it didnt seem so sad though i figured it was my place,
now im bathed in light, something just isn't right"
She stumbled over her feet and glared as her thoughts where shattered by the sound of her voice being called,waking her up from her daze.
"Helga!"
She looked up to see Harold waving her over,having not changed a bit only stockier.She smiled, she could tell it was him from the whinning. She ran over to the baseball pitch, watching everyone huddled in groups absorbed in chatter. Helga spied Gerald and Harold, over hearing converstations as she walked.
"i feel so sorry for him"
"yeah it sucks"
Helga puched Harold in the arm,"whats the big fuss, what's happened?"
Harold whined, "you mean you havn't heard? argh ive already told 5 people!" he sighed, "it's Arnold"
Helga stopped frowning and grasped Harold by his jacket and shook him roughly, "what about him?" she asked frantically.
Harold whined, "his grandpa's died,thats why he's not as school.."
Helga dropped him, and her face sofened,as it sunk in. Her heart aching inside, her beloved. She looked up and asked hastily
"well how is he?!" she shouted, clenching her fist.
"upset of corse!, he wouldn't come out to speak to us or nothing..." Harold looked down glum.
"i...i dont know what to say" Helga said to herself softly,feeling Harold's beedy eyes staring at her,
"wow is this Helga being kind?"
Helga punched him again hard in the arm, "yeah you wish!" watching Harold crumple with pain.
"my poor Arnold"she thought,her eyes burning up.Not hearing the whistle as the P.E teacher started the baseball game, it's not fair..., damn it he must be going through hell!" she frowned "maybe i should go round to his house and..." she looked up the baseball heading right for her through the dark sky, landing softly on the floor next to her. She frowned and stared at it,her mouth dry as she could hear cursing from the other girls demanding her to throw it.'this one's for Arnold' she thought and chucked it, watching it hit Rhonda hard on the head.

"im under your spell
how else could it be anyone would notice me
it's magic i can tell
how you set me free and brought me out so easily..."
----
The day passed quickiy and Helga didn't listen much as she felt so down,as if Aronld's pain was her own.As she walked way home from school she decided to pass Arnold's House, the christmas lights were not lit. She kicked the snow as she stood in scilence, her eyes darting towards his front door.She bit her lip as if she could feel the pain that was inside,as the snowflakes landed on her nose. Her eyes moved upward, towards his window and a sudden urge about throwing a stone at it came to mind. She frowned to herself, what on earth could she do?, what could she say? . She sighed aloud,and shoved her hands in her pockets as she turned to continue walking down the street. Looking back with tears glinting in her eyes she whispered,
"im so sorry Arnold..." and then with a heavy heart, turned to face the oncoming people in the street.
Grandma sniffed as she walked into the kicten,Mr Finn watching her as he drank his coffee. The season's happiness had
been drained out of the house, as nobody could find anything cheerful to say. Nothing seemed to ease the pain. He stared hard
at the table and mumbled to her,
"how is he?"
Grandma sighed,and shook her head glancing upwards towards the celing, "he's gone..."
Mr Flinn looked up, startled,"well should we look for him?!" Grandma sighed,
"he needs time like we all do, his Gandpa was like a father to him, now he's lost another..." She paused and wiped her eyes,"he needs a shoulder to cry on.."
She stopped her eyes gazing over to the front garden, watching the blond girl standing outside, looking towards the
house. Grandma stared at her ,her eyes sofening,
"yes, a shoulder to cry on.." she mumbled looking directly at Helga.
Mr Flinn stood up also looking out of the window, "who is that?" he asked staring at her.
Grandma smiled, "i don't know, but i have a feeling we're going to find out soon..."
