Disclaimer: Hey Arnold: not mine (it count for the last three chapters too)
Thanks for your reviews.
Does anybody know something about Uruguay, or Argentina in the last case?
Maybe you are thinking that i remove Arnold from the story. But i didn't. He will be back, with his parens (great ideas here). Unluckly, right now i don't need Arnold in the story for the best development of it. The reason is that i want to explore the trauma that Arnold's absence cause in everybody. I already talk about Gerald, and watch out Helga, too.
Sorry the babling, here it goes.
Ode to John Lennon
Chapter 4
Follow Jamie-O was an easy task. He was too involved with himself to note Gerald following him around. He went on buying flowers and chocolates for his girl. It's funny to see a big bad boy like Jamie-O doing all that romantic stuff for the sake of his date. In a way, it was even brave, the "no fear to a ridiculos situation" part – i mean.
-Wow, he is really involved this time- though Gerald –he's wearing a suit!!
Fact. A nice rented suit. Which fit him as perfection.
- Wait a minute, where is he going? Is he going to the …THE OPERA???!!!
No, that not posible, Jamie-O hates Opera. Who is this girl, who has the power to make my brother going to an opera? Who is she…?
But a happy voice stoped his thoughts.
-Oh, James, i'm so glad you came!!! And you bring me flowes!!!
And the voice had a face.
Olga Pataki.
- Okey, Pheebs, this is serious. Besides weird. But serios most of all. I cannot allow this to happen.
- I don't know, Helga. I mean, why can't your sister have a boyfriend?
- You don't know!!!?? Came on, Phoebe, he's not a boyfriend. Is Geraldo brother!! What am i gonna do? And what if he comes home to "meets the parents"? And what if his enterely family comes? And if they go carry on and marry, hair-boy wll became my brother in law? AND I WILL HAVE TO FIGHT FOR MY FAMILY ATTENTION, NOT ONLY WITH OLGA, BUT WITH GERALD'S FAMILY, AND THATS WITHOUT COUNTING OLGA'S POTENTIAL CHILDREN? AND WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF …?
UFF!!! The slap sound like an other scream in the room
-Pheobe! What was that for?!!
-Sorry Helga, but you were histerical
-You're right. Thanks. This is happening to me very often, isn't it?
A nodded was her answer
- Yeah, it has been happening very commonly since he…
- I know helga.
- Thaks Pheobe.- said Helga bitting her lip- but now, let's focus on the problem.
- Helga, without getting histerical, why are you so mad about it?
- I dunno, Pheebs, you tell me, you are the smart one.
- As much as your comentary please me, i have to say that you have more knowledge about psichoanalisis that me. But, as long as i am concerned, i have a couple of theories.
- Shoot
- First: you are jealous of Jamie-O bacause Olga's attention is constantly focus on him.
- Please pheebs, i admit that that happenes to me once with Lila, but i have madured since then. Besides, he's not the first Olga's boyfriend that i know. And i surelly thank him for geting Olga out of my way.
- Okey, so that leads to theory number two: you are jealuos of her, i mean, she has your parents attention and now she even has a great boyfriend.
- Oh, please, am i the jealousy witch or something? I have learned to live with my second place in this home, and Olga could have chosen better, to say so. Who would fall in love with someone like a Johansel, with his…-she stoped at the sight of Phoebe's blush- Oh, right. Go on Pheebs.
- Yes helga. Here it my last one, and it has to be with what you just say: he is a Johansel, Gerald's brother. I have to say that your relationship with Gerald is not one of the betters, to say so.
- I think you are right Pheebs. Do you know how unlike me will be have GERALDO as a BROTHER? Do you?
- I'm not all done, Helga. He's Arnold's best friend.
- Phoebe…
- He is. And that will be a bigger bond to him.
Silence…
- Helga…?
- Yeah?
- Are you okey?
- I'm fine. He is surelly a bond, a one i don't need, or want. Maybe is that, really.
- What are you gonna do?
Helga thought for a moment the answer, and with shinings eyes said –follow them.
- Do you have an idea of where are they?
- I have. Olga said she was going to the opera, and so are we.
- Going…
- I can't belive this!!! This is Helga G Pataki's sister. What am i gonna do? Helga is the most unbearable person in the world. And my brother is dating her sister. What am i gonna do? What? What can i do? What possibly am i…?
- Shut it, hair boy.
- WHAT??!! HELGA!! What are you doing here?!!
- Well, let me tell you what i wasn't doing: screaming at the top of my lungs: what?, what?, and more what?
- Well, don't blame me, i'm waiting for my brother, Jamie-O, who is DATING YOUR SISTER AND… Oh. –cough, cough- hello Phoebe, how you doing? You look great today.
- Well thank you. I must say you are looking good too.
Helga can't help but roll her eyes.
- Oh, please. Geraldo, focus. We have a problem. We need to solve it out.
- I can't agree more. Do you have a plan?
- I have. Listen. You too Pheebs. This is, operation Jamie-O less.
- Hey!!
- Okey, operation Johansel-less.
- Worst!!
- Well, we'll discuss the name later. Now listen…
-Listening…
