The sunrise hitting the fresh untouch snow. Giving it a nice pinkish color that sun has. Helga slept early as to 6 or 7 p.m. She woke up, able to see sunrise. Beauty at it's finest. Helga thought. Well since it was winter and sunrise later than when it's summer or spring. Gerald is still sleeping because he couldn't stop thinking about what Timberly said and stay up late. Helga went downstairs. The smell of eggs, bacon, toast, and coffee fill the house. Which only meant one thing that Olga was home. Miriam and Bob were not there but plates left on the table showing Helga they were. Olga grabs the plates to wash them and notices Helga.

"Oh baby sister, I didn't notice you there," Olga say to wash the dishes.

"Nobody does." Helga whisper in a soft sad voice.

"So I thought that Mom and Dad are gone. We could have some fun together. Sister bonding you know." Olga says as dry her hands. Oh shit. Helga thought.

"As that may sound fun and all." Helga began. "But I promise a friend that we hung out today." Helga says which was an excuse but no lie. Gerald crosses her mind.

"Oh, okay but tomorrow. No more promise. Okay." Olga says pointing her finger at Helga and she says firmly.

"Okay but first I'm hungry what's to eat," Helga says and sat down. Olga put a plate of food down. Gerald woke up to the sound of the door closing which means his parent left. Timberly laughter fills the house cause by cartoon on a T.V. Gerald walk pass the living room where Timberly watches on the T.V and to the kitchen. He opening the refrigerator and made his breakfast. He put on the plate and sat on the couch.

"What are you watching?" Gerald asks Timberly.

"Star Butterfly Vs the Forces of Evil." Timberly answer. "I think Marco is hot." Gerald cringe at her words.

"Well if that so I think Star is sexy." Gerald says that the 10-year-old girl cringe.

"Oh My God, Stop Gerald. I'm to young." Timberly cover her ears. Gerald laugh which strangely reminds him of Helga and their plans today.

"Hey, how would like to go outside?" Gerald ask Timberly.

"But mom said." Timberly began.

"Come on we build a snowman, make snow angels, and have a snowball fight. When we go home and enjoy some hot cocoa." Gerald tries to convince her.

"Would Helga be there?" Timberly ask.

"Of course." Gerald smile.

"Ok. Let me get my change." Timberly runs up stair Gerald walk up.

"I'm not wearing this outside." Helga told Olga with a serious face. The dress was too girly purple and everything she hates.

"But Baby Sister its the newest winter collection." Olga says with a whiney voice.

"I'm going to change. I got to meet with my friend." Helga who where living room to her room. Helga arrives in living after changing and left to the kitchen. Olga, Gerald, and Timberly talking.

"Hey, Helga." Gerald wave as Helga sat down.

"Sup, Gerald." Helga greets them. "Hey, Timberly." Timberly went to hug Helga. Helga shock by the hug but manage a weak smile.

"Hello, Helga. I didn't know you had a sister." Gerald nobs in agreement with that Timberly say.

"You didn't tell your friends you had a sister." Olga says in a sad tone.

"Nope." Helga responds quickly.

"Not even your best friend um the Asian girl what her name?" Olga ask.

"Phoebe." Helga says in her name as if it was poison. Gerald feels her anger and agree. "And she found out on her own."

"Oh that okay baby sister you probably just forgot." Olga tries to reason.

"Let's go, Gerald." Helga picks her jacket and now her new used coat. Gerald and Timberly follow along to the park.

"Can we make a snowman first?" Timberly begs and put on the cutest puppy face on.

"How can I say no to that face." Helga says more in a statement than a question. Helga roll a big ball snow as the base. Gerald rolls the second ball of snow. Timberly rolls the head on.

"Now we need a nose, eyes, and mouth." Timberly point out. Helga looks an around a guy was about to a carrot. Helga walks over snatch out his hand.

"Hey." The guy says in annoyed.

"Yeah, I need this. I want to take it back when you ruin a little girl's dream to build a snowman." Helga tries to guilt trip him. He let her leave. Helga later found two buttons and a couple of rocks. Gerald stabs the nose. Timberly put on two button eyes. Helga a line rocks into the mouth. It was not best looking snowman but like nice.

"I love it." Timberly shout. Both Gerald and Helga nob in agreement. Timberly drops and began to make a snow angel. Sid and the rest of gang arrive.

"Hey, Gerald! Helga! Want to join us in a snowball fight." Harold yell out them.

"Yeah sure wait for a second." Helga yells back. "Timberly, do want to join us." Helga ask. Timberly shakes her head saying 'no'.

"Nah, I just be in your way. I going to watch with rest of my friend." Timberly ran to reach other 10-year-old girls. Gerald and Helga walk over the whole 6th-grade class.

"Okay, Harold and I are the team captain and going to choose our teammates." Rhonda say. Phoebe and Arnold were in a corner the opposite side where Gerald and Helga. Awkward and other emotions between them four. They began to choose teammates.

"Finally, I chose Gerald and Helga." Harold chose them.

"Than I chose Arnold and Phoebe." Rhonda chose them. Each team quickly made a snow fort.

"Let It Begin!" Someone yell out loud. Snowballs went flying across the land. Helga, Harold, Gerald and the rest hid behind the fort.

"I got a plan." Helga state.

"Hey, I'm the Captain here." Harold complains.

"Well do you have a plan?" Helga questions him. The rest stare at him too. Harold looks way his face red out of anger and embarrassment.

"That's what I thought. Here the plan..." Helga began.

"Everyone got it." Everyone nob. "Let's battle!' Helga yell.

"Yeah." Everyone yell and went to the position.

"Helga." Gerald grabs Helga's hand. "Are you sure? Can we face our demons later." Gerald state.

"We have to face them sooner or later." Helga's sky blue eyes stare into Gerald's chocolate ones.

"I would like one to face it later but okay. I trust you." Gerald says. Helga's eyes widen. I trust you. Helga thought. No one ever says they trust her not even Phoebe. Helga smile at Gerald.

"Ready?" Helga ask.

"I was born ready." Gerald answer.

"Everyone now!" Helga yell. They cover Gerald and Helga as they both went to another side. Other Team and their Team went to war. Helga predicted that Phoebe and Arnold stay at the fort. Helga and Gerald scoop up snow to make snowballs. Gerald went right side and Helga went left side. Phoebe and Arnold shock by the surprise ambush. Phoebe got hit by Gerald and Arnold got hit by Helga. Helga and Gerald fist bump.

"Yeah." They both say and turn around to see they won. Helga's plan was a success. Anyone on Harold group jump with excitement. Phoebe and Arnold dust off the snow and then walk to Gerald and Helga.

"Helga I'm sorry." Phoebe apologize.

"Did you know that sorry is the most used word in the world? Having being used so much that doesn't mean anything to me. But why didn't tell about your relationship? I was your best friend." Helga respond. Leaving the boys and Phoebe silent.

"Because I didn't want to tell you. I know you li..," Helga's gloved hand connect to Phoebe's face. Helga just slaps Phoebe. Helga slaps her for two reasons only because she was mad at her and she was about to say that she like Arnold in front of Arnold. Everyone turn because sound od the slap was hard and stare at them. Helga in shock at what she did. Phoebe as well and Arnold and Gerald. The whole 6th grade rush to Phoebe who falls at the ground on her knees trying to help her.

"Helga, why did you just slap Phoebe?" Rhonda ask being first to speak on one knee to be next to Phoebe.

"I know mean but not this mean." Sid put in. People start to agree.

"Maybe Helga has a good reason." Gerald trying to stand up to Helga. He standing slightly in front of her but not blocking anyone view to see Helga.

"Gerald, are you defending her?" Arnold asks saying 'her' as if it was the horrible thing but not wanting to say her name.

"Yeah, you? Gerald." Stinky agree.

"Well, because I can. She's my friend and yours." Gerald kinda stutters but eas firm trying reason with them. But Arnold seems to lead them in his new hate for Helga. Arnold has always led them in their decision.

"But she hit Phoebe for no reason." Rhonda pop in.

"Helga did have a reason. And you know why, Arnold." Gerald says.

"Leave them, Gerald," Helga says in the first time since the slap. Her voice was emotionless and her sky blue eyes were dull. "I go." Helga began to walk away.

"If only guys know that the real victims are. Helga and me." Gerald says.

"Timberly! We're leaving!" Gerald yells chasing after Helga. Timberly follows them after saying goodbye to her friends. Everyone turn Phoebe and Arnold.

"What doing on?" Rhonda ask.

"You what to know what does. Fine, I tell you." Arnold began to tell the twisted story. Gerald and Timberly were able to catch up with Helga.

"Helga. Are you okay?" Gerald asks worried grabbing Helga's shoulder turn her around. Tears wanting to escape from her blue eyes.

"No. Gerald I'm not okay." Helga yell but not loud. Gerald back up and a bit scared.

"Sorry, I thought facing them might help but I was wrong."

"You're not wrong. You face them to early that's all." Gerald says grabbing tightly her shoulders. Timberly could feel sadness in Helga. Timberly ran to Helga and hug her.

"Don't be sad. Come to our house we have hot chocolate." Timberly says. Helga pushes Timberly slowly away.

"Sure, anything for you." Helga says with a weak smile.

"Let's go." Timberly drag Helga and Gerald to her home. Gerald, Helga, and Timberly sat on the couch drinking hot chocolate.

"What are we watching?" Helga ask.
"Hotel Transylvania," Timberly say. After half way or more to the movie, Timberly fell asleep. Gerald uses the remote to turn the T.V. off. Dragging Timberly in her bed. Helga pours more hot chocolate in her cup and sat on a table like before. Gerald came and did the same.

"I feel like more Timberly's dad than my real father." Gerald took a deep breath.

"Yeah, I barely see your parents. And that's saying much because my parents forget me all the time." Helga taking a sip of hot chocolate.

"They have been busy. That's all. Guess, I feel a to pressure problems just falling on my shoulder and it a hard." Gerald got it off his chest.

"But you not alone. I'm here. I help you when you need it. We might seem different but we're similar." Helga says trying to cheer Gerald.

"Yeah, thanks, Helga." Gerald places a sad smile. "But my parents going be here and going to family fun and all that jazz." Gerald explain.

"That's okay. I'm going have so such a fun day with my sister, Olga tomorrow." Helga says sarcastically. A smile from both of them at their sarcastic. The light soon became dim.

"Bye, Gerald. I have to go." Helga got up and went to the door.

"Bye, Helga. See you next tomorrow." Gerald says his goodbyes. As Helga left her house.

"Baby sister you're home." Olga says looking like she about to sleep and enter her room.

"Yeah, I'm tried. I'm going to sleep. Good night." Helga says entering her room.

"Good night." Olga respond. Gerald's parent came home to both children in their room asleep which they did themselves.
