Christian was all-alone now, he had nobody left, the Moulin rouge had reopened, but he no longer had Satine, his one love, Toulouse and the other bohemians were working at the Moulin rouge, Christian was still writing but had found little work.

He was sitting at his typewriter one day when he hear a knock at his door, he opened it and saw a rather pretty girl with red hair, rather like Satine's, she had the same eyes to.

"Excuse me but, you couldn't tell me were to find a woman called Satine would you?" she asked

"I'm sorry, but, she died about a year ago now, I'm sorry" replied Christian, the girl looked shocked, she had tears coming from her eyes.

"What is it? Did you know Satine?" he asked

"Well no but, she was my mother" replied the girl. Christian invited the girl in and sat her down.

"Well tell me about yourself I mean, did you live with the father" he asked

"No, I lived in an orphanage, they told me there, the father didn't want me, and my mother couldn't cope with me, I got away from there as soon as I turned 16, I went to London and looked for work there until my 18th birthday when I decided I wanted to come back and see my mother, but, obviously that was never going to happen." She replied, she looked at Christian and asked, "How did you know my mother?"

"Well, I met her about a year ago, and I fell in love with her, your mother was a wonderful person. We wanted to run away together but then she died, right after her first real performance as an actress."

"She was an actress?" asked the girl

"Yes, why?"

"Well, I always loved acting, I liked singing and dancing to, the acting part came in useful at the orphanage. But, it's just that, well they told me she was a courtesan at the orphanage"

Christian sighed and changed the subject.

"So, what is your name anyway?" he asked

"Rochelle." She replied

"So Rochelle, do have anywhere to stay?" Rochelle shook her head

"Well, I'll tell you what, you can stay here" said Christian as he go her a bed.

Later that night when he couldn't sleep, he walked into the room Rochelle was sleeping in thinking what happened, he looked up and whispered "why didn't you tell me Satine…"
