Chapter 39
Evil has Blond, Curly Hair
RECAP:
And with that, I turned and walked out of the office, leaving a stunned Chix behind me. Needless ot say, I was a lot happier on the way home. I finally got into the house and laid down on my couch and reflected on my day. Ha, it might have started off bad, but it had definitely improved.
Well, until next time.

Holly's POV:
Dear Diary,
Four days until Artemis comes. Lately, I've been finding myself thinking about that night ath the club. The part that really makes me angry is Minerva Paradizo.
I really have no idea why I'm so mad. I guess it's just the way that she trys to own Artemis. He's my friend and if there's one thing that I know, it's that he hates being controlled. Frond knows, that he won't take that lying down.
Minerva's nothing more than a manipulator. She only wants to use Arty, his brain, and the attention that she'll get from going out with him. Some people actually care about him, but she's not one of them. No, she only really cares about herself, her brother, and her father. She doesn't care about who gets hurt in the pursuit of what she wants. Hopefully, Artemis knows that.
Yes, she's pretty, blond, human, and a genius but she's not Arty's type. In fact, I think I'll make a list of why they couldn't get together.
1. She's too bossy. (Artemis would hate that. He'd probably break up with her in a few weeks.)
2. She's too obsessed with herself. (Every guy wants a little attention from his girlfriend once in a while. Anyone who talks to her would realize that within a few minutes.)
3. She doesn't like Artemis. (See # 2)
4. She's a bimbo. (Her outfit from the other night speaks loudly.)
's fake and insecure.
6. She dresses like a slut. (View #4)
7. She is too temperamental. (She almost exploded and tried to fight a more experienced martial artist.)
8. She's sure that she's the best girl in the world.
9. She's disrespectful. (When Arty asked her to leave, she stayed and snapped at me. Yes, she didn't like me, but she should have respected him enough to leave graciously.
hates most of Arty's friends. (Yes, she's made it no secret that she sees me as her competition for Arty's affections. Though, I've said it again and again that I'm not interested.)
Once again, I have to be fair instead of just writing what I feel would be best.
Reasons why they may work out:
1. She's a pretty human and he's a hormonal teenager. Not to mention that their human anatomies would match rather well.
2. They're both genii and could discuss the mysteries of the universe equally.
3. She's size compatible. (I know that I mentioned that one before, but it's pretty important.)
4. They're both proud, and would find that quality attractive in each other.
5. They're both independent enough to not really care about what the other does.
're both rich, and could definitely support a very upscale lifestyle.
7. They share a sense of humor. (Like that stupid quark joke on the train that I still don't get. Ugh, intellectuals.)
So, those are all of the reasons that I can come up with. So far, there are more ways that it's not possible reasons than possible ones. Not that I'm surprised. In fact, I'm really just surprised that I only have ten reasons why they can't get together.
I kep thining that I feel bad for almost going off on her. But, I wouldn't have hit her. No, don't hit chiildren with the exception of Artemis. Though, I don't really count him as a child. Even when he was twelve he didn't seem like a child to me.
But Minerva's attitude definitel made her seem like a child . A spoiled brat of a child.
To be honest, I think that Arty could do much better. I'm not saying that it should be me. No, I don't feel that way for him, but it should be someone other than her. I really would be happy if he found a nice girl. As long as she was right for him and a good person, then I really wouldn't care.
I suppose that I've vented enough. Until later.
