Chapter 2:
Mary: It's not as bad as you think it is Dad!
Eric: Well, I don't know how you explain bad. But I certainly know that whomever you married we must know somehow.
Annie: You know Eric, I am sort of happy for her. Now she will have to support herself and will learn a lesson the hard way!
Mary: You guys are so unfair! I HATE YOU BOTH! I am sorry I even came back to see all of you!
Annie: Get off the stairs you guys! Go read a book! Annie yelled up to Simon, Lucy, Sam, and David.
They ran to their rooms quicker than Speedy Gonzalez.
Just then Lucy heard a crash and hard thumping coming from the steps. It was Mary, with a very stern and mad expression on her face.
Mary: Why can't I marry whom I please!?!? It is not very fair.
Lucy: Well, you got to toughen up. You should have thought first before you went and married whomever you did.
Lucy: By the way, who did you marry??
Mary: His name is Joseph. He is tall, and very handsome.
Lucy: How old is he??
There was a very long pause and Mary never answered.
Lucy: Mary, please tell me you didn't marry someone a lot younger than you. Oh please say so! Mom and dad will kill you!
Mary: Actually, he is a little older than me.
Lucy: Oh no, by how many years?
Mary: 53 years older.
Lucy: OH MY GOD MARY! You married a man that is 75 years old! How could you!? Mom and Dad will kill you for this!
Lucy: Why Mary? Why would you do such a thing? Is there anything else about him I should know?
Mary: Well, he is 75 years old and has a certain type of cancer. Oh and he is blind.
Lucy was in such shock that she couldn't even say a word. When she went to open her mouth, nothing came out.
Lucy: Why would you do that?
Mary was just about to say something when Matt walked into the room.
Matt: So who's the lucky guy? Ben, Wilson, is it Robbie?
Mary and Lucy just sat there without saying a word.
Mary: It's not as bad as you think it is Dad!
Eric: Well, I don't know how you explain bad. But I certainly know that whomever you married we must know somehow.
