CHAPTER 9

HER NAME IS TROUBLE

Arnold locked up the shop, and started to walk home thinking over his rough day

"why can't everybody just stop bugging me about Lila already? whats the big deal?, and Mrs. Simmons asking me if I can help out with the School Dance, why didn't I say no, My bike wasn't ready today, and I can't believe that Harold quit, making me work for two today" he sighed tiredly

The boy got home in no time, he was about to open the door but paused when he heard... a female voice

"When will I get it?" she said in a straightforward tone

"AAAh I don't know G, he'll give it to you, you know him" said a male voice

"Then what are you here for?, he told me that HE was gonna be here"

"He couldn't make it, and well I wanted to see you" said the shadowy figure within the darkness

"GET OFF ME YOU FREAK, I MEAN BUSINESS, SO TELL ME WHEN WILL I GET IT?"

"In about Month he said" said the boy is a deep tone

"What! Why?"

"He's still looking for it, he said he'll call you up when he gets it, and for you to bring the money you owe him"

"Alright now get–the–hell–away–from–here–and–never–come–back" said the girl pushing him aside

"I can't believe you G, after everything that has happened, you end up treating me like a nobody"

"What are you talkin' about! Me and you was a never, and never will be so... good luck"

"urrrrrr" roared the male "I hate you G, after all you put me through, you go and do this to me"

"Ha, you know what Wolf? You always nag, you should have been a female"

"You know what G, I hate you!, you're lucky you've got power, your lucky the boss likes you for no reason, you're lucky he gave you time to pay him because I would.."

"You would what" snapped back the girl

"You're gonna end up lonely G, you're as cold as ice, and all you care about is MONEY, MONEY, MONEY, MONEY!" the male scooted away from her while pointing directly at her and walking away, he said "you're gonna die alone"

It was dark, and all Arnold could see was her back and the boy walking away, he also saw her standing there laughing "ha, ha, ha, you're no Angel yourself loser, you're just mad because you didn't get your way with me and I've seen you step low for money before, you ass" laughed the female coldly, she walked up her bike, and rode off.

Walking like a zombie, unbelieving what he just witnessed Arnold entered the Boarding house, and into the kitchen where everyone was getting ready to eat

"Hey there Shortman"

"Hi Grandpa"

"You look terrible, he-he how was your day?"

"Terrible I guess" replied Arnold

"Eh, not as bad as mine" said Mr. Kokoshka stealing some food off of Arnold's Plate

"serves you right" said Mr. Potts

"What happened?" asked Arnold

"Oh Oskar, you're such a baby" said Suzie

"No, I don't like that little girl, she is so meant to me, she doesn't even say my name right"

Stella started to giggle, Miles and Grandpa burst out laughing

In his usual accent Mr. Hyunh said "well, that is what happens when you steal food from people"

Whining Oskar replied " aaaww, she is the one who stole my food, and she didn't even eat it, she threw it, and it hit me in the eye"

Everybody burst out laughing, forming tears in their eyes...

"It's not funny" whined the man

"Talking about G, where is she?"

Arnold just froze "G, the same G from outside? the one yelling at that guy? she was the new border" he could not believe it "oh um, I think I saw her leaving in her bike."

"He he he, that crazy kid, feisty girl ain't she?" said Grandpa

"More like Ms. Trouble, but someone's gotta put Mr. KaaaCaCa back in his place" laughed Mr. Potts

2:00 am and not being able to sleep after working on homework and on some plans for the School Dance Arnold stepped out into the skylight, just breathing in the fresh air and relaxing his mind until...

VRRRROOOM VVVVRROOM

came along a bike and a sedan driving slowly next to it, the bike parked in front of the boarding house and the people in the sedan were waving goodbye, the female, secured her bike and walked inside

Arnold was shocked, "2am? weird cars? I better keep an eye on her, I need to make sure my family is safe, Mr. Potts said she's trouble and what was she talking about with that Wolf guy outside, owing money and wanting something" hummmm" Arnold walked into his room to think of a plan so that he could find out what this girl was up to
