Chapter 3
Christian has to adapt
After The Duke left, Christian slammed on the door and ran to his bed. He jumped on it and hit his hands on the pillow.
"How is it possible? That my woman is in the body of an evil, stupid, madman" Christian asked himself over and over again. He didn't think that France had voodoo or some such thing. He tried to think of ways it was possible. Maybe, the spirit couldn't get to heaven and had to stay in a body, or maybe she made peace with God, but still why The DUKE. Why would she pick the Duke to be apart of?
He took a drink of his absinthe bottle. Maybe he was dreaming and he would wake up. He pinched himself for hours trying to "wake up", but to no avail. He decided to get some sleep. He fell asleep or hammered, whichever you prefer.
The next morning, he woke up to a startling picture. The Duke was standing over him with a tray of food. He laid it down and sat on the end of the bed.
" What the hell are you doing here?" Christian asked The Duke. The Duke looked sad and humphed.
" Well, I just thought you might want some breakfast, since you can't cook" The duke said. As he said the last part, he almost cried.
" I'm sorry- Wait, what am I saying? How did you get in my locked apartment room?" Christian asked The Duke.
" Remember, you gave me a key after we got together. Please, just take me back and everything will be okay." The Duke said and put the napkin on Christian's chin.
" I don't know who you are, and I'm getting a headache. So, maybe you can explain or LEAVE!" Christian said and started to dig in to his pancakes and sausage.
" Okay, I'll explain. I would've yesterday, but NOOO!!, you were Mr. Cranky. Okay, here it is, after I died a spirit came to me in my eternal sleep. He said that I would have another chance at life, but there would be stipulations. One is that I would be returned once my true love believed who I was. Second, he said that until this happened I would stay like the Duke in the morning and Satine at night" The Duke said and was waiting for an "I love you".
" So let me get this straight, until I recognize you as Satine, you will stay like this in the morning and Satine at night?" Christian asked.
"Exactly. Well?" The Duke asked.
"Come back at night" Christian said and wished him to leave.
