Gumball Stupidity Novels & Stories

Why did I do something so stupid? "Why did I..." I swallowed, clutching at my hair with shaky hands. I knew it could not have been helped but I couldn't help but feel so stupid about everything. My chest began to heave once more when I stared at Elle's portrait on the wall. I had failed her. I had failed once more. I let her murderer escape when he was right in front of me.

Stupid to kiss the two most stupid boys in our stupid school. Yeah, stupid was the word of the day. And above it all, I was the one who ended up feeling stupid, because, at the end of the day, I was the stupid girl that kissed a guy she barely knew, gave a chance to a thief, and of course lost her family. Stupid me. dI groaned as Ally patted my back, and I shook my head, “I’m fine,” I grumbled, looking up at her momentarily. She gave me a pitiful look backed by an encouraging smile, “ it will get better you know,” she hummed.

Oh, look, my mantra has returned. Stupid. Stupid. STUPID! I felt the heat of frustration rising within me. How could I be so incredibly foolish? Just moments ago, everything had unfolded perfectly. Holly was cradled in my arms, her warmth radiating against me. I could still feel the thrill of our lips meeting in a passionate first kiss, a moment that felt electric and full of promise. Then, in an instant, my stupid mouth fucked it all up, revealing my secret in a careless slip.

But how will I deal with all my problems ? Out of nowhere an idea pops into my mind. I suddenly pluck out one of the candles from the table. It won't be that bad. Let me see whether this can help me. I stretch my right arm and tilt the candle slowly. I wince and fist my palm as the candle wax falls on the warm skin of my arm, causing a stinging sensation in the area. Tears start to form in my eyes as memories of my high school life flash through my mind. People calling me stutter boy, nerd, worthless, stupid, disgusting. I hear it every day. And I know it's true. I'm worthless and disgusting.

Hardy sighed and felt helpless. "Hahaha, it looks like it ain't easy to dupe an idiot. Caution is strongly advised when duping one because a normal human won't understand an idiot's brain." Stanley let out a loud laugh. Luckily for him, he was high up on the third floor and no one from below heard him laugh. A mysterious aura appeared in Larry's narrowed eyes. It did not matter if Cherry was genuinely stupid. She was no ordinary woman if she faked her stupidity. She presented herself as an idiot and yet she could foil Hardy's plan.

“Lenoir stop being emotional, what happened is not deep—” “— OH! YOU GETTING SHOT AT BY DIFFERENT CATEGORIES OF BULLETS IS NO BIG DEAL?!” Lenoir chuckled like an insane person and continued nagging while I tried my very best not to lose my cool. I didn't even have the strength to yell, I used up all my energy at court. “THERE'S A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BEING SMART AND BEING STUPID! AND YOU MY DEAR WIFE DEFINITELY DON'T FILL THE CATEGORY OF SMARTS!!”

as she thought. “I heard it was another quitter?” said a short man beside him. He looked like he was the same age as Gray. He was bald with tattoos—like a failed attempt at a carbon copy of Ronald. Gray had already nicknamed him Fakey McBaldy in her head. “Ah,” intoned Gollum. “Abram?” “You think?” responded Fakey McBaldy. “Yeah, that dude had always been such a wussy. It’s about time he’d go and kick the bucket.”

If retail therapy wasn’t on the table, I’d take verbal annihilation any day. You see, I’ve mastered the art of throwing bullies off their game. Random jokes, historical references, lines from Shakespeare or sitcoms – whatever makes them pause long enough to question if they’re being insulted. And when the fog of confusion lifts, reality hits. They start to question themselves whether they are stupid. And as we all know they are, it's a lovely moment for self-reflection. I slowly pointed to Tom. “Ah. So you must be Dumb...” Then I pointed to his acne-splotched sidekick. “...and Dumber then.”

He played his famous mind games again, twisting the truths and messing with his already weak brain. "Daddy, listen," Lilly's words and her hand palming my cheek were enough to pull me out of my messy thoughts. My gaze drifted down to her and I nodded my head, showing her I am all in and urging her to carry on with her rambling session, "Stupid," She said, and my eyebrows pulled closer; I really missed half of her earlier conversation, "Who is stupid?" I asked and she pointed at Cara, "The man who took mommy, he is stupid," She added and I nodded, sighing loudly, "Yeah, he is a dick."
