Stuart:to Sadie?

Victoria:I think it would look good on her what do you think?

At the brothel the girls went in there room and Jude and Dahlia

were in theirs.

Jude:what happened?

Dahlia:what happened?....let me tell you what happened don't do another one like this you got me in trouble

Jude:I didn't want any trouble...I didn't....

Dahlia:you didn't what?...you thought you were going to take your clothes and then leave out the door?...you don't know how Jerome can be

Jude:I know

Dahlia:yeah you know?...no, I don't think you know because if you did you would have never even thought to do something like this

Jude:what do you want me to do?...to accept everything like nothing happened?....I DON'T KNOW HOW I CAME HERE BUT I DON'T WANT TO STAY HERE

Dahlia:don't shout....you understood nothing and you don't even care that you're getting me in trouble with you....listen to me carefully do something again like this and I will be the one that tells him

After a little bit of silence Dahlia spoke again and this time

softer.

Dahlia:do you think anyone of us choose this life Rose?.......me, my mother, Verbena, Poppy?.....we're all in the same situation here....no one choose this life...understood?....listen to me you have to accept things and Jerome you have to be scared from him...I know what happens in here....everyone knows but no one is going to come and tell you

Jude:I didn't know I was going to get all of you in trouble

Dahlia:Rose you can't be stupid here and you can't trust anyone...... it's all a lie when you see us all together because everyone thinks about himself here......no one talked before in front of Jerome even if I knew that everyone was thinking of you...and don't think that they kept their mouth shut to help you or because they love you...nothing comes with nothing

Jude:thanks

Dahlia:everything passes the hurt will subside and the sadness will get better but you have to listen to me or you're be sorry

After Jamie left the cafeteria to were Jude used to work Jamie

went to Jude's apartment to see if she was there. He rang the

bell more than once but no one answered.

Sadie:a few?....I have to plea to get out

Stuart:you're exaggerating now

Sadie:and I can't name a guy around you because you'll turn purple I don't know what you're going to do when I tell you I'm getting married

Stuart:marrying?....don't even think about it not now you're still too young so don't dream

Sadie:and if I find a guy and I fall in love with him?...and I decide to get married to him what will you do?......you don't know?......I tell you then you will go crazy...you're too much jealous of me......be honest dad you can't live without me

Sadie was leaving when she turned again to talk to her father.

Sadie:dad....you don't believe to Victoria?

Sadie:but do you love her?

Stuart:what type of questions are these?....you know I love her

Sadie:it's just....I don't see you so much in love...it's like you're both together because you have to be....and I don't see any sense in this.....I mean how can you stay with her if you don't believe her?
