Disclaimer/Claimer: I own everything in this chapter except for the bulls, Jack, and Crutchy. If ya have any questions, email me of IM me. Look back in any of the other chapters to see how, or just go to my profile. Enjoy, and read on!
Instantly after hearing Jack shout that the bulls were there, Renee, Danielle, and Amanda all fled with the others. They looked back sadly as Crutchy was taken away, but they knew they couldn't alter the movie. It was too risky.
So that night, the girls contemplated what they could do to earn more money. After all, they did need to eat. Plus, there was a slight fee to stay at the boarding house. So, as they received help from the other girl newsies, they thought on which would be best.
"You could wash dishes," and "sewing's not that bad, once you get used to it," and "you could try to shine shoes," and of course, "cleaning's not too bad," were all thrown at them. They thought over each, and finally, they decided.
The next day, Amanda, Renee, and Danielle set out in different ways. They were each heading to their new jobs. They had all decided to take up different jobs, that way they wouldn't have to compete against each other. Even the other newsies liked the idea.
Amanda walked up to the brick house. She knocked lightly on the door, a small smile creeping on her face. She waited a few seconds before the door opened. There in front of her stood a girl close to her age, wearing a rather nice green dress. Her hair was tied back with a deep green ribbon, and her shoes peeked out from under her dress.
The girl looked at Amanda. She took in her dark brown pants, the white long-sleeved shirt, the blue shirt overtop, the sleeves rolled to her elbows. She wore black leather boots, and her hair was half up in a ponytail.
The girl seemingly forced a smile and turned her head back into the door. "Momma! The nanny's here!" she called, looking back once more at Amanda before walking back into the house.
A woman made her way down the wooden stairs, her hand gliding down the railing. She was a beautiful woman indeed. Her soft blonde hair fell in ringlets over her shoulders, her blue eyes matching the stunning dress she wore. It was a mid-sleeve dress, with a silk blue ribbon tied around the waist. Her shoes stuck out a bit, just like the younger girl's. She smiled genuinely at Amanda.
"I am so glad you're here. The children have been rowdy lately, and I fear my husband and I need a bit of a break. You don't find that horrible, do you?" she asked, her eyes shimmering.
Amanda shook her head. "Not at all. My mom used to take breaks all the time," she replied, her smile becoming larger. The woman laughed.
"Where's your mother now?" she asked as her eyes roamed over her outfit.
Amanda shrugged. "Down south somewhere I think."
The woman gasped. "Oh, I am so sorry," she said, her hand flying to her mouth. "I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable."
Amanda laughed. "Nah, ya didn't. I'm used to it I guess. After all, she was hardly around to begin with."
The woman nodded slowly, then removed her hand. "Have you any experience in tending children?"
She nodded. "I had a lot of siblings. Plus I watched a lot of the other kids from around where I lived."
The woman's smile returned. "Then I'm sure you'll do fine."
