"Wake up!"
Maria and Cap's relationship with one other was complated. the occasional kiss would occur but they never spoke about where they were going with it.
Cap started to pull way. He would go to the Pikeville Pub with his brother and uncles. And she hear them later boosting about the crude and sinful act they all partook in. One day she hear a scandalous story of Cap and one of the harlots told by uncle Jim Vance.
Rosanna laid next to the girl smirking
"i bet he spends most the time thinking about how beautiful those girls are and how annoying it is to be around you all day long."
Tears sprung to her eyes out of both anger and sadness.
Maria was heartbroken felt use and unwanted. As the ruckus went on well past midnight. She grew tried of repeatedly getting woken by heavy laughter and the carrying on in the kitchen. Peeking out to see them all half drunk and happy sitting around the table, sent her heart pounding with anger. Her feet started before she knew it stand in front of the men.
"this boy here can talk a whore into a free ride!" exclaimed Lias referring to Cap.
The crude group laughed and Maria's heart sunk. Cap was giving himself to these dirty women and just forgetting about her. Hell he was enjoying life and was liked by all.
"That is just so great you men find time for such sins . But there won't be any butter or biscuits at dawn. I shall be fast asleep in that cot."
They all froze at her entering the room. Maria had their full attention as she yell at their behavior.
"God bless all your lost souls. For it will be best for all if I do not have to tell you all again."
Cap heard the door slam and her yell at the Mccoy inside
"I'll cut your tongue out dumb girl"
