Helga woke up in Rhonda's guest room. She just laid in bed staring at the ceiling. She sighed thinking to herself this is going to be a rough day. She sat up and groaned she took her robe and went into the shower. As she came out drying her long blond hair, she thought about what Arnold said. Did he really mean that? Does it all mean wrong place right time? Would he rather it have been Lila? She started to brush her hair and she slammed it down. "GOD DAMNIT!" she cursed as she hit the mirror. Her hand was bleeding and just then Rhonda came running in

"What going om?" she asked frantically she saw Helga sitting in front of the mirror and her hand bleeding

"What happened Helga?" asked Rhonda Helga was just staring at her reflection wonder where her life went wrong. I mean I know I can never measure up to Olga or Lila. I know my father and mother always preferred Olga than to me. And the one person that was ever nice to me told me I don't mean anything more than a friend after what happened between us, she thought and realized Rhonda was shaking her

"Get off me!" demanded Helga

"what happened?

"nothing, I got angry"

"…" Rhonda just stared at her and slowly got up and walked to the door. She poked her head back in "You can always talk to me Helga"

"there's nothing to talk about Princess" said Helga whipping her hand off. Rhonda sighed, and Helga heard her door clothes. "yeah nothing to talk about" she mumbled to herself.

It was third period and Helga was walking by herself with her head in a book that she's not even reading she just keeps thinking to herself. She looked up and realized she's all the way at the other end of the school. She needs get to the gym for her class. And she has tryouts for volleyball, baseball, and track coming up. She put her book in her back pack and turned a corner

"UMPF" she said she was rubbing her head

"I'm sorry Helga" said Arnold Helga's head snapped up

"of course," she mumbled as she started to get up

"here let me help you I'm really sorry Helga"

"get off me and watch were your going football head" she bellowed and stormed off Arnold stared after her and shook his head as he walked to his class.

Arnold was at his lunch table talking to Gerald and Harold about the football tryouts

"I don't know man I think basketball is more my thing" said Gerald.

"yeah, I don't know I know I'm going to tryout for baseball and maybe track" said Arnold

"come on Guys as the QB I can easily get you in it'll fun this year" said Harold on a whine.

"I don't know man." Said Gerald shaking his head. "I mean were all trying out for baseball"

Helga and Phoebe walked in and Gerald's head cheered up

"Excuse me boys" said Gerald as he slowly walked over to them all Arnold heard was phoebes giggle and saw Helga roll her eyes and she walked over and sat down

"what's hanging pink boy" said Helga as she bit into half a sandwich that phoebe gave her.

"football tryouts come on Helga tell Arnold he should try out" said Harold with a mouth full of food. Helga's head shot up and she looked at them both

"pig boy what have I said about speaking to me with your mouth open? And second football head play football oh the irony!" barked Helga on a laugh Arnold's head went down, and he started to blush taking an interest in his pudding.

"come on Helga he'd be perfect"

"yeah maybe he can tryout to be the ball" she laughed as she stole a fry from Harold's plate.

Arnold had vivid flashbacks from when he was in the fourth grade again. He had a shiver run through him. He was glad that she seemed to change but he kept wondering if it was all true that the only reason she was such a bully to him was because she loved him.

"Hey Arnoldo!" said Helga waving her hands in his face

"whaaa…." He said shaking his head

"head still in the clouds there" she said "Some things never changed" she mumbled as she stood up and grabbed her book and walked away.

"so, what do ya say Arnold?" said Harold

"oh yeah um sure I guess" he said playing with his pudding again thinking back to what could have happened to her to make her so different.

"YES!" said Harold as he jumped up fist bumping the air. Soon after the bell rang.

Arnold was walking into her literature class and sat next to Helga.

"hi Helga" he said she grumbled and went back to reading her book. H sighed and started to unpack. The bell rang, and the teacher walked in.

"class settle down. Now its time to turn in your papers. And anyone who is in drama class and IN the play meaning that you are being an actor or actress in the play you will get extra credit or excused for the next several classes for your practice."

"AWWWW" said most of the class.

"now let's see what book you guys should read" as he pondered walking around the classroom tapping his chin the class was quiet with expense.

"I know what DO YOU guys want to read?" He asked all the students had their hands raised naming stupid choices.

"no something from long ago." He said shaking his head seeing Helga's nose in a book

"Helga? What do you want to read?" he asked the whole class mumbled

"hmm an original book?" she asked he shook his head Helga sat tapping her chin then her head snapped up and gave an evil grin as she looked at the class and everyone hung their head

"great were screwed" said Harold

"how about Northanger Abbey By Jane Austin" she said

"aww" said the whole class

"excellent choice Helga" he said Helga smiled evilly as she chucked and went back to her Edgar Allen Poe book.
