There he is, alone, in his room. No friends or anyone to comfort his presence. It's raining even, what a great time to be a sad little kid all curled up in his own bed. He's not even a kid anymore, grown teen, he should've grow up.
He lost his good ol' pal, Gerald. Due to him becoming very popular, he gave into peer pressure and hang out with his people with the same popularity status. Arnold swears he could just chop his hand off to remove any memories with Gerald and with their old iconic secret handshake. Sad.
He lost his girlfriend, Helga. Due to a very very stupid reason that he just want to go back to San Lorenzo and never ever come back. The girl is now is with someone else, worse or just being dramatic, it's Brainy. What else could he do? Take revenge? Oh, he has many nasty ideas in his mind. But his good moral and his religious belief won't let him. At least it's Brainy, the kid is nice, even better than him. He thought. He has to let it go and wished her the best. Devastating.
His grandparents died. Oh goody. Nothing than a good family members died in front of your own eyes. Arnold couldn't stop crying that day. He wished, he wished it should've been him. Not them. He grief for their death and let them go as well. Tragic.
Geez, he has to stop himself to listen to sad music every time he felt like this. He should've distract himself with his friends, oh wait, they're gone too. Or maybe hang out with his parents? Ah, they're still in other side of the city, for business reason. He don't know, but he has this uncomfortable feelings that his parents are just trying to get away from him, again. He should be grateful, at least his parents gave him money and text every once a week. Maybe, he just crave attention from his parents, what a needy kid.
Oh well, all he has to do is just go to sleep, sleep, sleep. He didn't wish to die yet oh no that would've been cruel. And tempting. But he knew he was better than this. He heard Phoebe fell into the same problem as he is, maybe she could be his next bestfriend. Who knows? they're just a human with a broken feelings which is easy to heal. He was just being dramatic. They said, they all said that.
Then he off to sleep. With teddy bear on his side, how cute.
