Chapter two
A new day started, and Oscar decided to stay in bed a little longer. To be honest, she had already woken up a long time ago, but she didn't want to run the risk of seeing Amber. When she finally descended, she met her mother.
MrsJ: "Did you sleep well, dear?"
O: "Very well, mother."
MrsJ: "Oscar, I know you don't have much in common with your sisters, but it would do you good to sympathize a little with them. Please do me a favor, go talk to them, they are in the garden!"
O: "Very well mother, but I doubt it will have much of an effect."
Oscar went to join her sisters in the garden. Amber was once again the one talking.
O:"Hang in there!" she thought.
Am: "So I told him… Oh! Oscar?"
O: "Good morning."
Mo & H: "Did you sleep well?"
O: "Yes."
An: "Don't just stand there! Come sitting here with us!"
Am: "I doubt Oscar would want to join us!"
Ma: "Amber!"
O: "What makes you say that?" asked Oscar, annoyed and losing her cool little by little.
Am: "We were busy talking about our lovers. You know: a lover! No, of course you don't know what that is, am I stupid or what? A lover is…"
O: "I do know what a lover is."
Am: "Oh! Sorry, but seeing you never had one, and you are doomed to end up as an old maid, I assumed that…"
O: "Well! You were wrong. I can take part in this conversation."
Am: "Oh really?" replied Amber with a defiant look.
O: "Yes, I can!"
Am: "What are you insinuating?"
O: "You are not the only one to have some sentimental adventures, I have a lover too."
H & Mo & Ma: "WHAT?"
Oscar had snapped back under the effect of a growing anger.
Am: "You, a lover?" repeated Amber with a little smile.
O: "…Yes."
Am: "You confirm having a lover at this very moment?"
O: "Since I told you so!"
An: "That's enough! Amber, Oscar, stop bickering."
O: "I'm not lying! I have a lover."
Am: "I don't believe you!"
O: "You're wrong, because it is the truth!"
Am: "Who is it then?" Amber asked suddenly, thinking she had cornered Oscar.
O: "What?"
Am: "I'm asking you his name."
O: "O well, it's… it's….uh… it's André!"
An & H & Ma & Mo: "André?"
Am: "You're lying! I don't believe you!
O: I assure you it's true!"
Am: "Then prove it, because there he comes!"
Looking it the direction she pointed, they saw André was indeed coming towards them.
O: "I will show you."
Oscar went to André.
A: "Hello Oscar!"
O: "Hello sweetheart!" Oscar shouted, loud enough so the others could hear it too.
A: "Sweetheart?"
O: "Oh, how I missed you last night."
Oscar literally jumped on André and kissed him full on the mouth in front of the baffled eyes of her sisters. When it came to André, he was so surprised, he let her do as she pleased.
