Yeah, it's very short. Just a little blurbby about Helga and her family.
I don't own Hey Arnold! and I don't own the song, "I need some sleep" by the eels
I grabbed the blanket I had wrapped around me on the couch, reached for my MP3 player, and quietly wandered
outside as the sun slowly turned the sky orange in its departure.
"Bullshit…" I muttered as I scrolled through the song titles until reaching the one I had been in search of.
"everyone says 'you're getting down too low'
Everyone says, you've just got to let it go…" the soft song sang in my hurting ears.
I hated the yelling. I hated the screaming and stomping around my house and I closed my eyes for a moment as I
sat on the stoop, soon giving in and opening them again to watch the cars pass me by.
I lay the blanket over my bare knees and focused on the music as it slowly took over my world.
Which of course, was when Bob stepping out and poked me with his foot.
Taking out the ear bud in my left ear, I turned to look at him.
"What?" I snarled as he stood in the doorway with the door held open.
"Come inside."
"No."
His face twisted into an angry expression.
"You heard me, little lady. You grab that blanket and get your sorry butt back inside."
I smirked sarcastically and shook my head.
"Sorry DAD, but I'd rather be out here."
After a moment, he frowned and made his way back inside, mumbling over his shoulder, "Just don't go
anywhere."
As if he cared.
