crying shows weakness


Dib was so nervous of Gaz's absents and was thinking the worst already; she was only 5 minutes late.

"She's not here yet, something has happened and it's my fault. Because of me Gaz can be in danger, defenseless and alone, without her brother. What if Zim is using her for his evil and stuff?" Dib said out loud, he was sweating and his hands were trembling in fear.  He then stood instantly; his fear he had a minute ago went away and stood in a heroic pose

"No, I won't let Zim harm my little sister, I'M COMING GAZ!!!"

He ran toward the door and once he opened it he then collides with someone and both fell to the floor.  He boosts himself up and saw someone familiar underneath him, it was Gaz.

"Gaz your ok!" he cried happily.

"Dib, if you don't get off me I will shred that head of-"Gaz wasn't able to finish her sentence, for she was interrupted by Dib's tight hug.

"Oh Gaz I was so worried, I thought that I lost you. For a moment I thought I was going to be dad's only child" He said.  He then suddenly heard a growl which he knew was not a good sign; she pushed Dib away to break the hug.

"Hug me again Dib and I will instantly make your world a living nightmare" She hissed at him.  She stood and dusted herself off, and made sure that Ziv was not damaged after the impact. She was about to depart but stop and turned to gaze at Dib.

"Zim told me that in their world babies are called smeets, and In his planet the smeet's PAK comes with a name and its own behavior." Gaz said

"Not much but it helps" Dib said as he stood up.

"What do you expect Dib, Zim is not that stupid you know. I'm your sister who to him it means your assistant, he's not going to trust me in an instant" she said infuriated. She took a deep breath to control her anger; she was exhausted and felt too tired to argue with her brother.

"Look it's been a long day, I'm going to bed. Make sure you don't make any noise and if you do, you will suffer horribly." She told him.

"Whatever, I'll be watching mysterious mysteries" he said as he walk to the couch to sit and watch his show.

She walked upstairs to her room taking Ziv with her, and she shut the door behind her she looked at Ziv

"Your uncle is so annoying, don't you agree?" she asked him, not expecting a response.

Ziv answered her question with a giggle, Gaz couldn't help but smile. The baby's giggle was too cute to ignore. "You know for sack of flour, you're not such a bad human...alien...thing after all" Gaz said. She gently placed ziv in her bed and walks to her closet; she took off her clothes to change into her dark purple nightgown. While changing Gaz was recalling what Zim had told her earlier that day that caught her by surprise.

'I like original Gaz-human better; you are a very unique human'

She beamed; nobody has ever considered her special before. I mean she is Gaz the coldest and meanest person, who would just break your leg if you annoy her. She knows that she is different from the rest of her people, but she didn't care. But it hurt her sometimes that nobody at least tried to talk to her, well Dib talks to her but he doesn't count.

  She feels too alone and needs someone to share her thoughts with. Her Dad is never home, and Dib is always busy with his paranormal stuff. The only best friend she ever had was her Game slave. She loosely remembered; when the stupid little mindless boy named Iggins told her that rainy night he took her game slave 'you need help.'  And now, years later, she was thinking that maybe he was right. Her anger takes over her and can't control it, which is one of the many reasons she's on your own.

Gaz felt tears falling down her face, it was too much. "Not again" she said growling. She furiously wiped off her tears 'crying shows weakness, don't cry you whiner' she said to herself. She lay in her bed still weeping "I guess I'm better off alone, it's for the best" she whispered to herself. She embraced Ziv in her arms, which caused Ziv to chuckle. "I guess you're the only friend I have, my zivvy" she said.

'Wait...ZIVVY? God I really do need help'
