Chapter Two
*Dis Is Really Gonna Suck*
While Angel made her way to where Jade was she accidentally bumped into someone, almost falling on the ground.
"Oh, sorry miss," the boy said. Holding out a paper he added, "Buy a pape?"
Angel looked at the boy. He had a black cowboy hat on and a red bandana tied around his neck and Angel raised her eyebrows at the noticeably un-New York garb. (AN: I wonder who it could be….)
"Shoah," she said, reaching into her pocket to grab a penny from the stolen wallet.
"Tanks," the boy said before tipping his hat and turning to another customer.
Angel looked down at the paper and chewed her lip, deep in thought, an idea forming in her mind.
She reached the bench where Jade was sitting and sat down beside her, still looking over the paper.
"Whatcha got dere, Angel," Jade asked, motioning to the paper.
"Nuttin. I jist bought it from dat guy over dere," Angel replied pointing to the newsie with the cowboy hat.
"Anyting interestin in it?" Jade asked, grabbing the paper and reading the headlines.
"Not really, 'cept foah da one about da two goils dat got sent to da refuge foah pick pocketin'," Angel said nonchalantly.
"Really? Wheah is it?" Jade questioned, flipping through the paper, looking for the story. Then all of the sudden something clicked in her mind.
"Hey, wait a second…." She murmured, looking over at Angel who had a totally blank expression on her face.
"Dats not funny," Jade grumbled, swatting Angel with the paper while Angel started cracking up.
"Youse-youse should 'ave seen yoah face when ya realized what Ise was talkin about," Angel gasped out between laughs.
Jade folded her arms across her chest and looked the other way, turning her back on Angel and scowling.
"Hey, Jade," Angel called, tapping Jade lightly on the shoulder.
"Yeah, what?" Jade growled, turning around to face her sister.
"Ise know a way dat we'se could make money honestly, widout getting sent to da refuge."
"Ise already told ya, Ise ain't goin ta woik in no factory," Jade said forcefully.
"Ise ain't talkin about woikin in a factory. In fact, youse even get ta woik outside in dis job. An' 'cept for getting up oily youse get yoah own hours," Angel said persuasively. (AN: okay. Now just tell me you didn't see this coming.)
Jade looked at her sister hard, looking into her eyes and, finding no lie, said, "Okay, youse got me listenin. Go on."
"We'se could sell papahs!" Angel said excitedly, tearing the paper out of Jade's hand.
"Youse want us ta become newsies???!!!" Jade exclaimed, "Did youse hit yoah head when Ise wasn't lookin or sumptin?"
"Naw, Jade, Ise is serious. Ise is tired of takin everyone elses cash. We need ta earn our own," Angel said, trying to coerce Jade into agreeing.
Eyeing the paper as if it were a demon Jade spat out, "Fine. We'se'll try it. But only try it. An' if Ise don't like it den Ise is leavin an' youse can stay or come wid me."
"Deal," said Angel happily.
"So when do we'se start an' wheah do we'se start?" Asked Jade.
"Ummmm…. Well, it's to late ta start taday, but we'se is pretty close to da lodgin house wheah da othah newsies stay, so when it's time ta toin in we'se can go dere an' ask someone ta show us da ropes," Angel answered.
"Why don't we'se jist go now?"
"'Cause all a da newsies are out sellin dere papes, dat's why."
"Oh," said Jade dully, wondering why she hadn't thought of that. "So what do we'se do until den?" She asked.
"I dunno. Let's jist kinda wander aroun a little bit, maybe 'ead ovah ta Central Park," Angel answered.
"Okay, shoah," Jade said while standing up and cracking her back.
The two girls walked slowly towards Central Park, one with hopes of leading at least a semi-honest life on her mind, and the other with thoughts like "Dis is really gonna suck."
