The Visit:

The days went by and Meg was gaining more strength. Her face was no longer pale and she was able to move and speak. Meg had risen from her bed and gently walked to the window, where she sat down in an oak chair. She put her elbows on the windowsill and gazed out throughout all of Paris. Some children were playing across the street, they were running around in circles, finally they stopped when their mother came out and yelled at them. Meg laughed a little as she turned her head to the right so the sun would not blind her. From her window she could see the Paris Opera house, she sighed, knowing she would not return for some time. Footsteps were head from below; Meg curiously looked down and discovered that it was Christine Daae. Christine was walking quickly and then stopped suddenly where she knocked on the door. Mme. Giry opened the door and greeted her, welcoming her inside. Meg continued to gaze out at the world she loved, when, in time, Christine came knocking on her door.

"Come in." Meg said, turning from looking out, and returning to her bed. Christine entered, smiling, as she approached the bed. "Good afternoon Christine! I haven't seen you in so long, how have you been?"

Christine stopped, pulling a chair to Meg's beside, and sat, responding, "I have been good." She said grabbing Meg's hand, "Things have been good with Erik, and things have been going well at the Opera house. We miss you there, all of us. We can't wait until you return, whenever that may be. I apologize I haven't been to visit you; I've been rather busy. But I'm here now, and I've heard from Raoul who came to visit that you are doing wonderfully." Christine looked down sadly, "look, Meg," she stopped, breathing in, "Are you making the best choice… with marrying Raoul? I'm just worried; you're rushing into this… Yes, you've known him for a while now, but have you gotten close to him? So far the only thing that's gotten you two close together was your collapse. I want you to be happy Meg… I really do, but I think this choice won't make you happy."

Meg closed her eyes, "Why, why are you saying this to me? I don't understand you Christine! You claim you want the best for me but you still do this to me! You tell me I'm wrong, I'm making the wrong decision. Raoul is bad. Why is he bad Christine, was he bad for loving you? Or is it that you are jealous? Oh, that must be it. I have Raoul, your childhood friend, and look what you have, a fifty year-old Phantom of the Opera! So don't start Christine! I can't handle this! And I don't understand you lately! What's wrong! Why do you keep acting this way? Is it something with Erik? What has he done to you? Please, tell me! I need to know! Just a week ago you told me how things would work out with Raoul and myself, and now you are telling I'm making mistakes. What do you know Christine? How can you dare tell me I'm making a mistake when this is my life?"

Christine sighed, "Meg… Oh Meg… I'm trying to protect you from this… life… you want to choose. I don't want you to get hurt! I'm worried for you! And why are you overreacting so! Ever since you found Raoul you have been over protective, where is the love I used to see in your eyes? Now I only see envy and hate… It scares me Meg, oh how it scares me. Meg what happened? If you want to know about me, you have to give me some answers about you. To answer your questions Meg, Erik has done nothing to me, he would never, and whatever would make you say such a thing is beyond me. And all I want you to do is to see what you are getting yourself into. What is making you crave attention? Why do you want to be wedded with Raoul so quickly? I'm not trying to run your life Meg… God why does this have to be so hard! Meg! I care for you so much! Why can't you just listen to me?" Christine turned to the window, "if you don't want to listen to me I understand, but when you get hurt Meg, don't tell me I didn't warn you."

Meg grinded her teeth, "Why," she said very slowly, "must you say these things Christine? Nothing is going to go wrong! You're being paranoid! You have nothing to worry about! What is it that you're worried of exactly?"

"Everything! Everything Meg! Sure, Raoul is a loving man, but he's just a childish boy! And you Meg! You're so young!" Christine said quickly.

"You're being a hypocrite Christine! I am too young to get married yet look at you, you are having a thing with Erik underneath the Opera House. I am not too young to be wedded, and for you to say a thing like that hurts me. You are acting like you don't know me lately Christine. Why are you blowing up on me, what did I do to you? I didn't do anything!" Meg finished standing up now.

"If you must know Meg…" Christine paused, looking up at the ceiling, her eyes shining in the light, her hand free on her shoulders, "I'm pregnant Meg… I came here to share this with you, but I suppose that was a mistake… I found out last night that I was pregnant, I was beyond happy, then I thought of you, and I felt guilty. Last night I was thinking of you Meg, and…"

Meg cut Christine off, "Who told you of the engagement?"

Christine sighed, "Of course Raoul did Meg, you know he can't stop his excitement…But as I was saying, I was thinking of you, and of this engagement. I was very happy for you, of course I would be Meg, I would always be happy for you. But I'm just worried, you are just now getting to know Raoul, don't you feel that it's a little too sudden? Meg, just think of what I have said… please… I'm not insane you know, I'm not crazy; I say things for a reason, things that should be taken in. Remember when I sang at my first gala? The night a 'star' was born? You were there with me that night, before the show, you told me all would be well. I trusted you and believed you, and then that night I went out there and I was amazing… Why can't you trust and believe me now, as I did with you back then?"

Meg bit her lower lip, "I'll think about it Christine… perhaps you are right… perhaps I'm rushing things a bit too fast… But, and I'm not saying I will, if I decide to make the wedding later, how do you think Raoul will feel? He's been waiting for this day ever since I asked him… I don't think he can handle it Christine, I don't think I could tell him. It's too hard, and I want to get married Christine, I want to with all my heart, I truly love Raoul, I just wish you would understand that."

"I never doubted for once that you loved him Meg." Christine replied.

"I know Christine, I'm just scared." Meg said sadly.

"Of what?" Christine asked worriedly.

"Of everything." Meg finished, looking up in Christine's eyes, bringing her forward so she could rest in Christine's lap.

"Everything will be fine Meg, I promise…" Christine whispered into her ear. Christine placed Meg's head back on her pillow and placed to covers over her, "sleep well Meg." Christine said softly.

Christine closed Meg's bedroom door, and proceeded down the stairs to the kitchen where she found Mme. Giry and Raoul sitting.

"Ah Christine! I hope you enjoyed your talk with Meg!" Raoul said cheerfully.

"Of course I did," Christine said, trying to put a smile on, "Mme. Giry, may I speak to you a moment?" Mme. Giry nodded and walked with Christine into the other room.

"What is it dear? What's wrong?" Mme. Giry asked.

Christine smiled, and sat down, "I'm worried for Meg, Mme. Giry. She has become very obsessed with Raoul… And this sudden engagement… I'm just worried she's rushing things. I just talked to her and we ended up in a small argument, but then the last words she said to me before she fell asleep were that she was afraid… I don't know what to do Mme. Giry. Of course I know she has to make her own decisions, but is she ready?"

"My daughter knows what she wants, and if she chooses it we must let her follow through. She is capable of making her own decisions, and Raoul is a good man, he will take care of her. And if she were rushing, at least she isn't rushing into a bad relationship." Mme. Giry replied, grabbing Christine's hands as so to reassure her.

"How do we know she isn't getting into a bad relationship? What if things go wrong? I just fear for the worst… I have to leave now, I must return home to Erik, farewell Mme. Giry." Christine gently kissed her on the cheek, "I suppose I'll see you at the wedding, au revoir." Christine exited from the house, returning home.
