From last time…
Sam was in the praying room. She looked at the picture of her father and she lit candles. Danny was there watching her.
The continuation….
Phantom:
Brava, brava, bravissimi
Sam looked around to see if she could see her angel but she was interrupted as she heard Valeria coming her way.
"Sam, Sam," Valeria called out from the outside hallway.
"Sam," Danny whispered, knowing that only Sam could hear him. He watched as Valeria came in.
"Where have you been girl?" Valeria asked. "You did well. How did you sing like that? Who is this tutor of yours?"
Sam was smiling at the idea of being good. She decided to tell her friend.
"Valeria when Masters brought me to live here, whenever I am here by myself to light a candle for my father a voice from above and from my dreams is always there. Before my father died he told me I would be protected by the Angel of Music," Sam told her friend.
"Do you really believe that Sam? Do you think the spirit of your father is coaching you?" Valeria asked.
"Who else would it be? My father told me of this angel and when I sing, I can sense him and I know he is here. Here is this room he calls me from somewhere," Sam answered. Valeria looked to the candle and back at Sam. Sam had a dreamy look to her face. Sam rose up and Valeria followed. She grabbed Sam's wrist.
"You have to be dreaming. Those kinds of stories don't come true and you keep talking in riddles. That is not like you," Valeria told her friend. She was able to take Sam out of the room. Sam looked at the picture of the angel on the wall one last time as she was taken back to the party.
Sam:
Angel of music
Guide and guardian
Grant to me your glory
Valeria:
Who is this angel
This…
Both:
Angel of Music
Hide no longer
Secret and strange angel
Sam felt her angel's presence and smiled.
"He is with me right now," Sam told her friend as they continued to walk. Valeria grabbed Sam's hand and let go of them.
"Your hands are cold," Valeria said shocked. Sam seems not to listen.
"All around me," Sam mumbled out, as they stopped.
"Sam, your face is white," Valeria said back.
"It frightens me but at the same time is doesn't," Sam mumbled out, a confused look to her face. From above the fat prop man watched them walk again, drinking his alcohol. Sam was able to get to her room with Jazz right behind her. Jazz closed the door right after she was fully entered; pushing away many others who wanted to talk to Sam.
"No, no," Jazz said, as she closed the door. She turned to Sam saying, "You did well. He is pleased with you." Jazz handed Sam a dark rose which Sam took. Jazz left Sam to herself. Outside the door, Gregor was there talking to the couple. He had flowers in one hand.
"Gregor, we seem to have a quite discover with Miss Manson," Star said to the patron.
"Maybe we can present her to you," Kwan said, smiling. Gregor smiled back at them.
"If you don't mind, I would do this visit with Miss Manson alone. Thank you," Gregor told them as he entered the door. The couple looked as Gregor entered.
"I say they have meet before," Star told her husband, who agreed with her. Gregor saw Sam and smiled. Sam had no notice of him.
"Little Lotte let her mind wander," Gregor said, using Sam's old nicknames. Sam turned to see her old best friend. She got up and walked to him, hugging him. From the two way mirror Danny was getting jealous. He turned his head. He felt sick to the stomach.
"Gregor," Sam said, acknowledging the man. Sam had to admit he had grown handsome but to her he was always her friend.
"You sang like an angel tonight," Gregor said, his heart pounding hard in his chest. Sam has grown to be lovely.
"Gregor, it was the Angel of Music that taught me. The Angel of Music visited me," Sam said happily, hoping Gregor would believe her.
"No doubt," Gregor said back, laughing. "Well, to supper we must go." Gregor started to walk to the door.
"No I can't," Sam said back and Gregor turned to look at her. "The Angel of Music is strict."
"It is not like I am going to keep you long," Gregor told Sam.
"Please no," Sam told him as Gregor neared the door.
"I am going to order a carriage and you must change. Two minutes Little Lotte," Gregor said as he smiled at her. When he left Sam was angry. From outside Danny had closed the door. She didn't like to be ordered, including by a friend who didn't notice her while she was part of the chorus. But, she had to give him a chance. She couldn't stay lonely. Danny decided to make a move and get Sam to himself for awhile.
Phantom:
Insolent boy!
This slave of fashion
Basking in your glory!
Ignorant fool!
This brave young suitor,
Sharing in my triumph!
Sam:
Angel I hear you!
Speak, I listen…
Stay by my side, guide me!
Angel, my soul was weak
Forgive me….
Enter at last, Master!
Danny:
Flattering child
You shall know me,
See why in shadow I hide
Look at your face in the mirror
I am there inside!
Sam turned to the mirror and the mirror seemed to phase, showing a man. Mist seemed to float through Sam as she walked toward the mirror.
Sam:
Angel of Music!
Guide and guardian!
Grant to me your glory!
Angel of Music!
Hide no longer!
Come to me, strange angel
Danny saw her come toward him.
Danny:
I am your angel of music
Come to me: Angel of Music
Sam was drawn to his voice, his image. Her feet carried her to him. She felt like she was dreaming. The thing she didn't understand was that she didn't want this dream to end. From outside Gregor tried opening the door when he heard Danny sing.
"Who is that voice?" Gregor asked. "Sam, Sam!"
Danny kept on singing.
Danny:
I am your angel of music.
Sam had forgotten all about Gregor. His voice couldn't pull her from the image of the man with a mask. Her heart was pounding hard and she kept on walking toward the mirror.
"Who is that in there? Sam, Sam!" Gregor said as he continued to knock on the door.
Danny:
Come to me: Angel of Music
Sam put her hand out to the mirror and felt the phantom grab hers pulling her more inside. Where? She didn't know. Sam just knew she was excited, scared, thrilled, and with other emotions she never felt before.
Okay I am going to say it now….HAPPY Halloween!!! YEAAAAAA!!!! CANDY!!!
