Tragedy hated admitting she was wrong, but in her heart she knew that Charlie wasn't the Reckless, heart breaking kind of girl. The headstrong newsgirl swallowed her pride and knocked on Charlie's bedroom door.

"Come in" said Charlie wiping her eyes. "Oh its you. Did you come back to yell some more?"

"Charlie, I'm sorry" said Tragedy "I jumped ta conclusions"

"Yes you did" sighed Charlie brushing her hair harder.

"I jus wanted ta know why, to undastand"

"I know" said Charlie smiling sadly "see that note over there on the table?"

Tragedy nodded.

"Read it"

Charlie walked over to the window and traced the pattern of the stars on her window.

"I'm sorry Charlie" said Tragedy hugging her friend. "What a bastard. Wait until I tell Jack an Da boys"

"No! you cant tell anyone" replied Charlie grabbing her hand "Please promise me you wont tell anyone"

"All right" said Tragedy begrudgingly

"Not even Jack?"

"Not even Jack. When?"

"tommorow"

"Then I'll see ya tommorow"

"No Tragedy"

"Shush, I'm not gonna let ya face dat horrible little man alone"

"Thanks" said Charlie tears welling up in her eyes. The Next Day.

Spot had gone to see Charlie, to see if she would talk to him, He had to make her change her mind. When he got to Irving Hall, he saw Charlie dressed in a pale blue dress with her hair done up in braids, standing amidst luggage. She kissed Medda goodbye and climbed up into a fine horse carriage.

"What da Hell?" he whispered.

Then he saw Tragedy, she was in a dress too, it was long and a violet color, her blond hair done in curls.She climbed into the same carriage and it drove away. He didn't know what was going on, but he hoped Jack knew.

"Hello darling" said Noah Pulitzer kissing Charlie on the lips.

She winced and turned her head away.

"Whose this?" he asked.

"I am Annika Williams" said Tragedy slipping into a thick English accent "I am Miss Charlotte's governess"

"very well" said Noah "Follow me"

Charlie grabbed her friend's hand and suppressed a giggle.

"This is your room my dear" said Noah "and Miss Williams's is straight through that door. Dinner is at seven"

He kissed Charlie on the cheek and left the room.

"Blechhh" said Charlie "What am I gonna do?"

"Well, listen. I'm gonna sell in da morning, den I'll come back here at night" said Tragedy "You wont be alone. I swear"

"What da ya mean?" asked Jack.

"They got inta a carriage and drove away" said Spot "And Tragedy was wearin a dress and her hair was down"

"Sumptin is obviously goin on" said Jack.

Tragedy changed out of her dress and back into her newsy clothing.

"Ya gonna be okay?" she asked.

"Yeah, I think"

"Remember if he tries ta touch ya, knee him in da balls"

Charlie laughed.

"Thanks"

"I'll see ya lata"

"Bye"

Jack paced the ground in front of the Distribution office as he waited for Tragedy. What the hell is goin on? He wondered. He looked over at Spot who sat on a box smoking a cigarette. Then Tragedy ran up to Jack and kissed him.

"Hi Jacky" said Tragedy.

"Hi Dollface" said Jack "What's goin on?"

"What do ya mean?" asked Tragedy feigning innocence.

"I saw ya Tragedy" said Spot
