Arnold's greatest treasure

The Christmas Party

A couple of days passed, Arnold was helping his grandpa with the baseman again, but now it was almost finish.

"So, Shortman how's your friend with the one eye-brow recuperating?"

"You mean Helga my girlfriend, she's doing good."

His grandfather place his hands on his head in surprised. " Your girlfriend! When did that happen Shortman!?"

Arnold was sweeping the floor. "A couple of days ago grandpa."

"Really that long ago, you should keep me up to date with your life shortman."

"Yes grandpa." Arnold continue cleaning.

"You know I remember when your grandma ask me to be her boyfriend."

Arnold thought for a second "Wait, weren't you suppose to ask her grandpa?"

The old man touched his chin thinking, "You know maybe your right, well I don't remember shortman it was so long ago, but your grandma was always getting me in to trouble.. " he said laughing.

"You already told me that story Grandpa." Said Arnold rolling his eyes.

The old man couldn't stop laughing.
"Oh no, I'm talking about a different kind of trouble. I can't tell you yet... or maybe I can....You know Arnold now that you have a girlfriend. Is about time we have a good chat about how to treat a girl and how to control your, teenage urges." As his grandfather was trying to explain Arnold cut him off.

"Grandpa!!!" Shouted Arnold with blushed cheeks.

"You know what I'm talking about boy. Your face said it all." Said the old man with a smile.

His grandma walked downstairs to the baseman. "Kimba you better finish cleaning fast, we have training today on some advanced self defense techniques."

"Yes grandma." Arnold was glad to know he didn't have much time to talk to his grandpa about relationships.

Helga was in her house washing dishes in the kitchen when her father walked up to her.

"Helga I'll be leaving out of town by Thursday morning, so Olga will stay with you for a couple of day."

Helga was upset just by hearing her sister was coming over. "About that Bob, I don't need Olga to babysit me, I'm old enough to be on my own."

"You can't stay alone for a week Helga. Olga is coming and that's that!"

"Fine Bob...How's Mom doing?" She asked.

"Last I heard she's progressing." Said Bob as he was walking out of the kitchen.

Crimity, I'm going to have to see Olga for a week. Thought Helga.

As Helga finished her chores around the house Phoebe called her.

"Hey Phoebe"

"Helga are you going to be ready by 6pm for the Christmas party?"

"Oh yeah, I just finished cleaning around the house, I'll take a fast shower and I'll see you at the party. "

"Is Arnold picking you up?" Asked Phoebe.

"Yeah he will"

"That's good, Gerald and I will have to be late for the party since, my parents and I are still at my aunt's house."

"That's sucks Phoebe, just text me once you get close to the party."
