Chapter 2
Donald had a what?
The triplet enter the houseboat follow by Scrooge, Miss Beakley, and Webby. Huey opens the door to the bathroom where they find who is Donald looking rather miserable while sitting in his tub. He's looking at a picture of Daisy as tears flow down his face. Everyone look sympathetic for him. Dewey is the first to approach
" Hey Uncle Donald is everything okay" Dewey asks
Donald jumps surprised by the sudden presence in the room. Everyone taken aback by this but only slightly before.
"What picture in my hand" Donald said trying find to hide the picture of Daisy
"No one said anything about the picture in your hand" Dewey said plainly
"But while we're on the subject why are you hiding it" Huey chimed in.
"It's a photo of that lady isn't it" Louie stated
"No" Donald said fanically
Della snatches the picture. She then holds it up
"Oh Donald why do you keep doing this to yourself" Della softly
"Hey it's the lady" Webbie says
"Knew it" Louie says smugly.
"Uncle Donald how do you two know each other" Huey asks
"Okay I'm sure where to start with this but basically we used to date" Donald explains
"What" Webby exlains
"You had a girlfriend" Dewey practically shouts
"How come we're just now hearing about this" Louie says with slight shock in his voice
"Were dated for about three years and they were some of the happiest years of my life. I thought I had met the woman of my dreams. Things were going good between the two until she met Gladstone" Donald with a smile
"So she left you for Gladstone" Huey asked
"Yeah" Donald said with sadness in his voice
"Uncle Gladstone stole your girlfriend. Actually that's not that surprising now that I think about" Dewey says all at once.
Daisy is driving through the city as the girls looked concerned as she seemed a little down.
"Is everything okay Aunt Daisy" April asks
"Huh. Yeah everything fine" Daisy said in a mosad tone
"You sure because you seem upset" May chimes in
"Does this have anything to do with that guy" June asks
"No.(Sighs) Yes" Daisy reluctantly answers
"What exactly happened between you two" April asks
"Well a long time ago we were in love and I broke his heart. I left him for his cousin." Daisy admits shamefully
"Aunt Daisy that's awful" May replies
"I was young, dumb, and Gladstone had charmed me. It wasn't until weeks later that I realized I made a terrible mistake and by the time I realized this Donald had already gone off into the navy. This is the first time I've seen him in 12 years." Daisy said with pain in her voice
"Aunt Daisy" May says concerned
"I messed up. I really hurt him. I knew coming here today was a bad idea " Daisy says voice breaking
May reaches to pet her shoulder as she begins to tear up. She turns to see May smiling at her.
"It's going to be alright Aunt Daisy" May says reassuringly
Della is stroking Donald head as he lay in fetal position on his bed. Scrooge and the boys stand as Scrooge gestures for the boys to then sits right beside him.
"Della do you mind if I talk to Donald in private" Scrooge says softly
"Try not to make it worst" Della says seriously
"I know what I'm doing. Now get out of here already" Scrooge responds
Della gets up and leaves the room looking back before she does. Scrooge turns his attention towards Donald.
"Donald. Let's talk" Scrooge says softly
"No thanks" Donald says sullen
"Donald come on get up" Scrooge says sternly
Donald doesn't budge
"Can you at least look at me" Scrooge asks
Donald turns over to look at Scrooge who has a sympathetic look on his face.
"Daisy really got a hold on your heart huh? You know back in the day your old Uncle Scrooge had his fair share of fatal attraction. I understand why you don't want to talk right now. Just let me know when you do though." Scrooge says as he gets up to leave
"Wait Scrooge" Donald says before he leaves
Scrooge turns back around to a sadden Donald looking up at him.
"She hurt me but I still love her and I don't know why. What am I suppose to do about" Donald admitted sadly
"Love will do that to you. What you need to do is talk to her about this" Scrooge says softly
"I don't know if I can" Donald says
"Sure you can" Scrooge says with a soft smile
"Well even if I wanted to how am I suppose to get a hold of her" Donald asks
"Now you just leave that to old Uncle Scrooge" Scrooge says with a grin
Scrooge is on the phone
"Hello" Daisy says
" Yes Daisy from now on any business we have is to be discussed at my mansion " Scrooge says
"What but .." Daisy stammers
" No buts. I'm the boss " Scrooge says sternly
Scrooge hangs up. Daisy puts her face in her hands and sinks to the floor before removing her hand and saying
"Aw phooey"
