Chapter 3
Lily got to the Medda's theatre in plenty of time before
Medda started her show. She and Medda talked forever
and Lily got her room all set up.
Her room wasn't large, but wasn't small either. It had a
beautiful vanity, and a room over looking the alley. The
didn't have any decoration, so it left plenty of room for
her artistic spirit to have fun.
When Lily asked Medda about singing the following
night, Medda was ecstatic. She said that she would
love to sing, and Fridays could even be " The Lovely Lily
" night. Lily was so gracious she began to glow. She
got her own night to sing five or six of her favorite songs
every week!
Lily had spent the rest of Thursday night practicing and
picking out the song for Friday night, and almost all of
Friday morning practicing with her musicians.

Friday night rolled around and the guys at the lodging
house were running around trying to make themselves
look really handsome.
" Would you guys calm down?! We're just going to
Medda's for a good time like always! " Blink was yelling
his heart out, but no one was listening.
" Blink! Jack's sistah is singin'! We just want to look
nice fer her! "
Mush's voice was muffled as he pulled on a clean
shirt.
" Man Jack, your sistah must be a lookah. "
" That she is Blink, that she is! "
The gang finished getting ready quick because they
wanted to be there early enough so they could get great
seats, and sure enough they did. They got the tables
right in front.
~~~~~~~~
The young beauty was in her dressing room doing
some last minute make up touch ups when a delighted
Medda walked in. She was carrying the most beautiful
dress Lily had ever seen. The dress she was wearing
that night.
" Oh Medda! It's gorgeous! I love it! " Lily took the dress
and started to put it on while Medda babbled on/
" I bought it yesterday! I saw the lovely red dress you
were wearing yesterday, and it brought out your eyes
magnificently! So i didn't think you'd mind if i bought you
another! "
Lily had just finished fastening it and stepped in front of
her full length mirror.
The dress was a deep red and had black lace over it
making it seem even darker. it was basically strapless,
but had think cap sleeves that hung off the shoulders
for style. The skirt went all the way to the floor, but it
wasn't too long. The beautiful dress accented every
curve her body had, and was definitely flattering to the
chest.
" Wow... I don't mean to be conceited, but i'm
gorgeous! "
" You are dear. Here, but this in your hair and put this
around your neck."
Medda gave her a perfect deep red rose to put in her
curly up do and a black choker for her neck. With those
on her transformation was complete.
Lily and Medda walked out of the dressing room and
over to a balcony to look at the crowd. Lily scanned the
audience for some newsies and immediately found
them. She looked and found Jack, Race, Mush, and Kid
Blink. Blink!
