On with the story!
The walk back to the Lodging House was completely silent. They were both thinking about how they were going to tell the guys. All too soon, they arrived at the Lodging House.
They stepped in and headed up to the bunkroom after David signed in. The boys gave David strange looks as he set his stuff on an empty bunk. He then went over to Jack and they assembled everyone and the boys, with worried looks on their faces, gathered in front of the two boys.
"Dave has somethin' ta tell ya." Jack said. David looked at as if saying "we never agreed to that" but Jack nudged him and he started telling them what he heard that morning.
"… so we need to find out who else is Jewish so that we can make sure that no one gets hurt. We also need to tell the other boroughs about this." David finished.
"Especially Brooklyn." Jack added.
"Why is Broklyn so important?" a young newsie from the back asked and some heads nodded in agreement.
"Well," Jack started " First off, if we are going to beat this gang, we will need the support of Brooklyn and also, Spot is Jewish."
There were some murmers in the room at that comment but it soon quieted down.
"Like Dave said befoah, we need ta know who is Jewish so dat we can hide you if necessary. So step up if youse is Jewish" Jack said.
One scared little boy with brown hair and blue eyes stepped up, clutching his teddy bear and sucking his thumb. Jack knelt to eye level with him. "Hey Mud, youse Jewish?" He asked kindly. The young boy looked scared out of his mind. He couldn't have been more than five.
He nodded " Am I not sapposed ta be?" he asked. Sticking his thumb in his mouth once again.
Jack replied to him, being forceful but still sounding as kind as ever" No, absolutely not, Dere is nuttin' wrong wit being Jewish its just dat some people is stupid and thinks dat but dey is wrong, Ya hear me?". Mud nodded and clutched his teddy bear tighter and smiling through his thumb. Mud walked behind Jack and stood next to David who put his hand on his shoulder.
Jack stood again and asked "Anyone else?". No one stepped up and Jack sighed "Listen, We ain't gonna judge ya for it or anything but if ya don't step up den we can't help ya."
One of the newsies looked around at everyone and stepped up, much to everyone's surprise.
