Roxie's Letter
Chapter 1: Roxie and the Little Girl
It was March 3, 1934 and all of New York City was at the theater. The act of a lifetime was there. The two infamous jazz man-killers Roxie Hart and Velma Kelly. They were on their last American tour and on the road going from city to city for about two weeks. New York was the next to last stop and the crowds grew with each passing act. Roxie and Velma loved the fame and attention from everyone else. Their ambition drove them to complete success in the most unexpected way. After their performance, it was natural that the stars would go out into the crowds, greet them, and sign autographs. Every single man, woman, and child begged just a glimpse of the two. Roxie, with her curled blond hair and sporting a sparkling red costume with matching top hat began to shake hands of the little girls at the front. She smiled to each who themselves all dreamt to be just like their idol, but there was one girl that stood out in Roxie's eyes. She was a stout girl with auburn curled hair and soft brown eyes adorn in a simple blue sailor suit holding a parchment in her tiny hands. Roxie knelt to the little child and eyed her from head to toe.
" Hey little honey, my name's Roxie Hart. Did you enjoy the show?"
The girl remained silent, still staring into Roxie's blue eyes. She neither budged nor blinks. Just remained there like a statue before Roxie. Confused, Roxie persisted to ask more of the silent child.
" Well, do you want an autograph or something?"
The girls remain, no muttering about. Roxie began to grow impatient but did not want to show it in front of all the people admiring her presence.
" Okay. what's your name?"
" Emily"
Relieved that the little girl spoke, she got out a pen and made eye contact with the parchment in the tiny hands.
" Well.let me just sign my name on your little piece of paper and you can show everyone that I signed It., " said Roxie smiling. She was not too fond with children but had to adapt, especially when involved with show business. The girl shook her head and was prepared to speak. Roxie saw the girl's preparation and began to listen intensively.
"This letter is for you."
Roxie saw the outstretched hand of the girl and grabbed hold of it. Suspicious, Roxie looked up from the letter and saw that the little Emily had vanished into the crowd. Puzzled, Roxie continued to sign autographs and meet her fans.
