"Jacky-boy, dere's somebody heah ta see ya," Race said to Jack after leaving Angelina waiting outside.
"Who?" he asked curiously because he didn't see anyone else but the other newsies in the room.
"Hang on," Race replied and went back outside to Angelina.
"Giusto, è venuto su in, egli's l'attesa (Okay, come on in, he's waiting)" Race said and then, seeing the nervous look in her eyes and the color drain from her already pale complexion, said, "Il docente universitario't l'inquietudine, tutto's il gonna è bello (Don't worry, everything's gonna be fine)."
'Giusto, va qui (Okay, here goes),' Angelina thought to herself, taking a deep breath, bracing herself for Frankie's reaction to her, hoping that it was much better than Mikey's.
Racetrack lead her inside the Lodging House where the older newsies were lounging around, telling each other all about their nights. When Angelina walked by most gave her a curious look. She avoided their eyes and looked down at the ground.
"Heah she is Jacky," Racetrack said, grabbing Angelina's arm and pulling her out from behind him. "Non preoccuparsi (Don't worry)," he whispered in her ear.
"Hey Frankie," she said, with a nervous smile on her face. "Bet you uh, don't remember me," she said more steadily.
Jack looked at her strangely, trying to place the voice, which had a familiar ring to it, although it was disguised by her distinct Italian accent. "Lina? Naw it can't be you," he said, not believing that the mature girl standing before him was the same tiny little girl, barely more than a toddler last time he had seen her.
"Well, you better believe it, because it is me," she replied. "And I've already been to see the il ragazzo testardo (stubborn boy) and he wants nothing to do with me."
"Well its late and I'se still in shock. Youse can stay heah tonight," Jack said as the newsies headed up to the bunkroom and him and Angelina followed them up.
"Lei può avere la mia cuccetta perché il mio lí aren't qualunque vuoto stasera (You can have my bunk because there aren't any empty tonight)," Race said to Angelina
"Ringraziarlo, ciò's molto dolce (Thank you, that's very sweet)," she replied. "Buona notte (Good night)."
"Buona notte," he replied
"Night Lina," Jack said
"Good night Frankie," she said as she rolled over in Race's bunk and quickly fell asleep, thinking about all the changes that happened so quickly to her.
