"I'll be seeing ya Spot and tanks for da favor," they spit shook and Jack headed
off towards Manhattan. Well, I'se did it. I'se finally got rid of her. She actually
thought that I liked her, Jack had to laugh out loud for how gullible Sara could
be. I'se know dat Snoddy was starting to like da goil, and I couldn't let dat happen,
Jack thought. Me newsies are me family and I ain't gonna let someone like dat goil
come into our lives and stir up trouble, dat's all she is, trouble.
Spot walked to the end of the docks where Sara was sitting, just staring off into space.
"Hey goil, I'se don't like repeating meself, how are youse gonna pay youse way over
here?"
I stood up and smirked at him. "I'se don't like ta repeat meself either, I'se already told
ya, I'll sell papes," I mocked.
He waved his cane in my face, "the only reason I'se is letting ya stay here goil, is cause
Jack is me best friend, and dat's da only reason. I'se know about who youse been sleeping with," he grinned evilly.
I gave him a cold look, "for your information, I haven't been sleeping with anyone.
Get your facts straight before that mouth of yours takes off;" I yelled losing my temper.
He grabbed me roughly by the shoulders; "no one talks to me dat way and gets away
wid it."
"Oh yeah, and what are you gonna do about it?"
His cold eyes stared into mine. "Dis," he replied. In that one split second, his lips
were pressed firmly on mine, it wasn't like the kiss Oscar and I had shared. Oscar
was sweet and gentle and Spot's kiss was the complete opposite. Outraged that he
had the nerve to do such a thing, I pushed him away, and slapped him hard on the
face.
"Don't you ever touch me again," I yelled running off.
Spot just shook his head; "you really made a mess of tings now, Conlon."
Meanwhile back in Manhattan, Snoddy was waiting very impatiently for Jack
to come in. None of the other boys knew where he wen't. They had only seen
him and Sara walk off somewhere, and it was driving him insane not knowing
where Jack had taken her to.
"Finally," Snoddy walked over to Jack. "Where did you take Sara?"
Jack chuckled, "I took her to Brooklyn," he answered.
Snoddy was angered by how Jack was acting like it was no big deal. "Why did
youse take her to Brooklyn," his voice rose with each word.
"So dat she'd have a place ta stay. Now leave me alone," Jack said while heading
upstairs.
Snoddy stared in disbelief. I'se can't believe he did that. He knows how Spot's
boys are. "Well I'm going over there, I ain't gonna let her stay there by herself,"
Snoddy said out loud.
