Chapter two: Where's Helga?
Phoebe's POV:
I walked in and took my seat still filled with anxiety but I couldn't fidget or someone might notice that I'm acting unusual. "Ok class it's time to work on our geography projects! Let's all break into our pairs, and then we can get started" announced Mr.Simmons. Of course today of all days we have to work on this project, oh if only she could've waited to the end of the day this wouldn't have been a problem. The phone began ringing and of course Mr.simmons answered it nodded and hung up. "Phoebe, it looks like Helga wasn't feeling to good and went home for the day." At least she was looking out…
After the final bell
I grabbed my books and ran out the class, I didn't want anyone coming up to me to talk about Helga. I got on the bus and into my seat, just as I caught my breath HE sits right next to me.
Arnold's POV
What a weird day! I thought today was going to be the typical Wednesday, I got on the buss expecting a spit ball from Helga but nothing! Then the same thing in class Helga hadn't said a word to anyone not even phoebe, her BEST FRIEND PHOEBE!! I thought it was a bit strange but then again the they could've been fighting about something and I do NOT want to get in between another best friend fight, but when Gerald and I went to phoebe and told her that Helga was at another table she looked upset about something then shouted and ran to the bathroom. Gerald was pretty upset about that and wanted to make sure she was OK so I asked Lila to go and check up on her. After lunch we were all playing but Helga seemed uninterested and even declined. She seemed like she was waiting for something, then the bell rang. I looked around for her but she was nowhere to be found. I looked over to phoebe who looked like she wanted to cry but she kept it together. After the bell she practically flew out the class and Mr.Simmons who was standing by the door fell over from the impact. "Alright class I-I'll see you all tomorrow!" Everyone sped pass Mr.Simmons I stopped to help him up then ran to catch up with Gerald. "Man! Today was perfect" Gerald said while stretching. "I don't know Gerald, something feels off about today. Especially with Helga" he looked at me like I'd lost my mind "ARNOLD!! That's the main reason why it was perfect". I furrowed my brows. "Gerald, that's not nice." He rolled his eyes and threw his hands up in defense "look Arnold, I know you see the good in everybody but you have to admit there's no good in Helga G. Pataki" I rolled my eyes and got on the bus with him. We sat across from phoebe who looked like she'd been crying or was about to cry. "Do you think Helga might've upset her?" Gerald asked looking at phoebe. Helga was harsh but I don't think she'd go out of her way and bully her own best friend. "No, helga would do anything to hurt phoebe" I said to him as the bus neared our stop. We got of and watched her through the window, something was definitely going on.
