Chelsea awoke the next morning to the front door slamming shut. "Good," she thought, "He's gone!" Chelsea thought back to the reason she was his girlfriend anyway. It had been a day just like any other day and her parents were working at the factory, but then...the fire. Chelsea could see the smoke as it smotherd the city and right away she knew it was the factory. It turned out that Chelsea's parents didn't make it out alive and Chelsea at 13 years of age was an orphan. It was easy living on the streets, but that was untill winter came. New York winters were rough and Chelsea soon found herself knocking on people's doors looking for food and shelter. Bill took her in. Although Bill was only 17 then, it turned out that living with him was okay. Sometime while living with him, Chelsea became Bill's girlfriend and it worked out well even though they were 4 years apart. Chelsea even got a job as a seemstress. But Eventually, Bill started drinking and things got rough. One thing led to another and Chelsea ended up getting beaten once or twice a week. Now Chelsea was 15 and Bill was 19, and things were bad.
Chelsea sighed and decided to stop thinking about Bill...after all, he was going to be gone for two weeks! Chelsea picked up the newly finished dress she had sewn and decided to bring it to the dress shop. A woman named "Andrea" owned the dress shop and had hired Chelsea to make dresses. This means that Chelsea never had to work, al she had to do was sew. After getting dressed, Chelsea started her way out to the streets of New York City.
Chelsea had reached the dress shop when she dicoverd no one was there.
"Shit!" she cursed. By now she was fustrated and hungry and was glad to see that a restraunt called, "Tibby's" was next to the shop. Chelsea walked into "Tibby's" and saw the one person she was hopeing to see: Andrea. But Andrea was not alone, she was sitting at a large table with her fiance, Brian Denton and about 15 younger boys. The boys were very dirty and were carrying newspapers. Chelsea knew that the boys were newsies. Andrea looked up and saw Chelsea.
"Chelsea!" Andrea called as she waved, "come sit with us, we just sat down!" Chelsea took an open seat across from Andrea and next to a curly haired, italian-looking boy.
"Mrs. Dillmount's dress is done." said Chelsea nervosly as she noticed that all of the newsies were looking at her and handed Andrea the dress.
"Well, who do we 'ave 'ere?" asked a very handsome newsy with a cowboy hat on.
"Everyone:" anounced Andrea, "This is Chelsea. She works for me. You fella's should take some lessons from this girl, you should see how much of an Eponine this girl is." All of the newsies looked dumbfounded. Chelsea could here whispers of the newsies saying things such as, "Who da Hell is Eep-o-neen?" The truth was, Chelsea had no clue who "Eponine" was eathier.
"Alright, I knew I'd have you stumped on that one!" laughed Andrea, "Eponine was a character in a book I once read, she knew the streets very well and seemed to know everything about the city. Chelsea is just like her" The curly-haired, Italian boy let out a small laugh which cause Chelsea to look over at him. He was tall and very handsome and wore his cabbie hat backwards. The boy looked at Chelsea. 'Wow!' thought Chelsea...she couldn't take her eyes away from his. It was like a differant world looking into his eyes, they were so ecspessive and it was as though someone was holding thier eyes so they couldn't look away from each other.
"I'm Itey" said the boy slowly as he stuck out his hand.
"I'm...well, as Andrea calls me "'Ponine" or something like that" replyed Chelsea giggling.
"Well then, from now on I will know you as 'Ponine." smiled Itey. The boy with big front teeth sitting next to Itey stared in amazment. Chelsea, who was now known as 'Ponine heard him say to the boy with a crutch next to him, "What da hell's wrong with Itey? He barely talks at all, and nevah ta strangers like dat goil!" Itey must have over heard then too, he blushed and finally took his eyes away from 'Ponine's.
Just then the waiter walked over to the large table that 'Ponine was sitting at. "Can I take your order?" he asked.
"I would like some spaghetti" answerd Brian Denton.
"Can I get a soup and an order of garlic bread, with extra cheese?" asked Andrea
"Sure" replyed the waiter as the newsies laughed.
"They gave me the nickname Cheese because I allways order cheese with everything." giggled Andrea.
After the waiter had tooken everyone's orders, 'Ponine had the chance to talk to Itey more. Itey had introduced her to everyone including the newsies girlfriends. There was Gretch who was Davey's, Chewy who was Crutchy's, Stormy who was Kid Blink's and Moose who was Racetracks. 'Ponine had also heard that Jack had a "goil" that was Davey's sister, Sarah. As 'Ponine and Itey talked the boy with the big front teeth that Itey had identified as "Snitch" still gawked on. Came to think of it, alot of the newsies were amazed that Itey was carrying on a conversation with 'Ponine.
When Itey had left the table to use the restroom Snitch turned to 'Ponine and said, "I can't believe it! Itey barley eva talks, but you two can't run outta things ta talk about!" 'Ponine blushed and replyed, "Well, he's very conversational" Snitch laughed and shook his head as he turned to take the food from the waiter who was delivering the orders.
