The Patakis: Episode Six Part Two

Next part! I am so happy that I updated this! It took me long enough. Sorry about that. Remember that the next episode is going to be a new story again. (: (:

I am waking up. I had good dreams. It's probably because I had a good time last night. Phoebe, my mom, and I watched movies, ate junk food and just plain talked. It wasn't what I expected…it was actually fun.

Phoebe is still asleep in her sleeping bag. I should go get breakfast before anybody wakes up. I'm walking but I am seeing the letter. I hesitate but pick it up.

I am walking silently to my closet and go in. I am sitting down on the floor and carefully opening the letter.

I am taking a breath and now directing my eyes towards the letter. This is what it says.

Dear Helga,

I want you to understand that I love you and want to be with you more than anything but I also love my parents. I have gone so long without them and if I don't leave with them now then I may not see them again for a long time. I know they really want to go and it wouldn't be fair of me to tell them to stay and not go with the people that took care of them when they crash landed. I hope you can learn to forgive me eventually.

Remember to not let your life end because of me leaving. I want you to live your life and not be sad. I love you and hope you stay the same way you always have been, beautiful headstrong, stubborn, and creative. Never change and please write me back soon if you forgive me.

Love Arnold.

I am reading this over again to make sure I know what I read was correct. I am very surprised and touched that he would write this for me. I wish he would have told Phoebe to give this to me sooner because now I understand that I must change what I have become. I need to go back to the Helga he knew and loved. I need to start living my life!

I am slowly opening the closet door. I am setting the letter down again. I am getting back in bed. I figure that it's early enough that I can sleep for a little while longer. I am not so hungry anymore. I think I will have some pleasant dreams while I sleep.

I look at my best friend for a moment while she is asleep. She looks so peaceful. I am so lucky to have her as a friend. I am fluttering my eyes. I am closing them fully and completely.

Hope you enjoyed so much! I tried to make it sweet and something Arnold would say. Tell me what you think please! I love your reviews so much and they make me so happy when I read them! (:
