Chapter 8 (part 2)
Tommy:what? are you lost?
Jude:don't touché me I didn't give you the permission
Tommy:did you want me to leave you fall and break your neck?...(smiling)ah, maybe it will have been good
Jude:you're so arrogant
Tommy:they say it's a sin to treat bad other people...instead of treating me bad you could have said thank
Jude:I have nothing to thank you for Mr...Please just leave I'm disgusted of your presence
Tommy:ah, that how it is and why?...because I'm poor and without rich clothes on?...and you are the one that suppose to be generous?
Jude was leaving but he moved in front of her.
Jude: let me go
Tommy:no
Jude:if you try and...
Tommy:what do something you don't want? (Laughing) this is a sin of supervene sister I swear to you that I have no intensions to do anything with you, you're too cold
Jude turned around from him. Jude's thoughts 'maybe he was right I am too cold
that's why no one wants me'.
Tommy:I'm sorry I didn't mean it like that...instead you know what I think? why a beautiful girl like you decided to be a nun.
And with that he moved so she could pass and as soon as he moved she ran back
home.
At the Dutois mansion Chris and Jamie had arrived back and were in the office
talking.
Chris:when Sadie talked about our engagement I felt embarrassed but then I saw Jude so calm, I don't think she really cared about what happened...perhaps it's true that she had a vocation to be a nun
Jamie:it can be but it's really not fair
Chris:yes it's not fair
Jamie:for me she's more beautiful than her sister
Chris:I don't know about that Sadie is more open, more full of life
Jamie:do you think she will come here?
Chris:who Sadie? of course
Jamie:no, I was referring to Jude
Chris:Jamie let's talk things strait here...I will not permit to you to be as always with Jude and even more to not respect her first of all because now she's my future sister in law and second because it nice to respect her decision to be a nun
Jamie:yes, but let's think she will change her mind and I will make her fall in love with me will you have something to say?
Chris:I don't think it's going to happen and after all don't you always complain that you don't have money? And that you will marry a rich woman?
Jamie:perhaps I don't need a rich woman any more
Chris:why?
Jamie:because a friend told me to share with him something that we can have profit from
Chris:and what is it?
Jamie:(laughing) don't be curios...when it will happen you will be the first one to know
At Darius's house when Angelica get back there with Kyle.
Darius:no, no and no it's not going to work with the excuses. In this house you're not going to do whatever it pass from that head of yours if you haven't had the permission to leave you had to stay here and that's it. Tommy had asked me to find you a job with a good family but with what you do you will never find one. You know what I'm going to do instead I will take you in a place that I'm sure you will not escape, of course if you will not climb up the convent's gate like a monkey
Kyle was laughing now
Angelica:you want to leave me with the nuns?
That evening at Tommy's house Speed was outside when Tommy came back
home.
Tommy:everything is ok Speed?
Speed:a few minutes ago Miss Sadie came here and she's not in a good mood
Tommy:thanks
Tommy went up the stairs and in to his house
Sadie:do you think I like to wait?
Tommy:stay calm
Sadie:after all the difficulties I find to come here
Tommy:I saw two men enter your house
Sadie:when?
Tommy:two hours ago...have you already forgot?...one of them was Chris Dutois right?
Sadie:why do you know him?
Tommy:why did he come?
Sadie:just a visit we are relatives you know his mother and mine are cousins
Tommy:if a single man comes to a house with women for marriage he only comes for one reason...and how your sister rejected him perhaps now he wants you
Sadie:me? Are you crazy?
Tommy:so why he did he come?
Sadie:ok fine I tell you...it's all Jude's fault; you have to know that Chris and Jude were engaged since they were little the last time they saw each other it was when he was 15 years old. But then when time had passed Jude had lost all interest in him and she decided to call off their engagement because of her vocation and he didn't said anything...but now that they saw each other again I don't know what happened to Jude, it looks like now she's crazy in love and she invited him...I think so she could tell him
Tommy:(not believing Sadie) is she going to seduce him dressed like a nun?
Sadie:you don't know her; Jude is a manipulative and a calculator. If she gets back Chris than she will say that she was always wrong and she will get out of the convent otherwise she will do nothing and continue her path and her reputation of a saint will still remain there
Tommy:I think this is a really stupid thing and your mother what does she say?
Sadie:nothing, she didn't even noticed she's always in the clouds...I know because Jude herself told me she even told me to not look at Chris, she was like crazy screaming and pacing all the time...and to tell you I was even scared...but you know your suspicious offend me...how can another man interest me when I have you?
Tommy:don't ever try to betray me Sadie don't even think about it
Sadie:my love is not a lie
Tommy:because if that man just tries to have his eyes on you...I will kill him
At the Harrison's house Victoria and Jude were talking in the living room.
Victoria:the worst part had passed now and now that you have the permission from the sister why don't you come?
Jude:I don't want to come to the mansion
Victoria:will it make you suffer to see Chris every day?
Jude:no, it's not for that...I don't want to be part of the reunions and the talks I just want to be away from the world...in the convent there is so much peace
Victoria:ok, we talk later
Jude left and went to Sadie's room and found Carmen rearranging Sadie's clothes.
Jude:where is my sister?
Carmen:I don't know Miss maybe she went walking on the beach
Carmen left the room. Jude sat down on Sadie's dresser and was looking in the
mirror then something told her to open the drawer of the dresser and she did.
There she found a pearl necklace and the ring the engagement ring that Chris
gave her. She looked at it and the temptation to put it on to see how it looks on
her was stronger than her and she did it, she put it on. Jude's thoughts 'this was
going to be mine if nothing happened. It looks good on me and perfect but the
only thing that is not is Chris he's good looking but I feel nothing for him of course
I care but that's it but if this ring's was Tommy's that would be perfect even him
the feeling I feel for him it's not just care it's something more something more
powerful you feel your heart warm when you see him, with emotions and desire
oh, god that's enough I have to stop thinking about him that way he doesn't even
think of me like this he just sees me a cold blooded like he said.' She took off the
ring and put it back in the drawer than her attention was again on the necklace
she tried it with her teeth to see if they were real pearls or not. Before she put it
back in the drawer her sister came in.
Sadie:what are you doing?
Jude:can I know from where you get this necklace?
Sadie:that, it's nothing they are not real
Jude:no, they are real who gave them to you?
Sadie:Chris
Jude:ok than so when I see him again I will ask him
Jude put it back in the drawer and was leaving.
Sadie:wait...I'm getting enough of this ...you look at me as if I'm the most arrogant bitch in the world..I already told you that necklace is a present...from my friend she gave it to me when I turned 18
Jude:and why you never said anything?
Sadie:because..Jude to tell you the truth that necklace was a present for her from a man..she accepted it but later on she knew she did a mistake and she was afraid that her mother will see it so she gave it to me
Jude:I don't believe not even a word
Sadie:you don't believe anything I say...and after all I don't have to give you any explanation...and I don't know why you continue to mixed with my things
Jude:I have to do it because it about me too
Sadie:why?..because you're my sister?...or because of Chris?...you know what I think that you are a procreate and you want to hurt me because you're jealous ...you don't want to accept the fact that he preferred me instead of you
Jude:ah, he preferred you?
Sadie:yes, he was all over me from the first time he saw me and that's why he broke off your engagement
Jude:and you left him to be all over you even when you knew he was my fiancé?
Sadie:I didn't do anything...I swear with him I was always good
Jude:yes, I have no doubt...ok fine I'm happy that you cleared all the story but now that you got Chris by acting a role and not be yourself if you want him to stay with you from now on you have to be a good lady...you have to stop lying, with the gifts of some person and the walks by the beach
Sadie:and this, what have to do with this?...I have no permission to take some good air
Jude:the thing is that you don't go to tale some good air you think I'm that stupid?...you think I haven't saw that man around here?...and I know that between you there is not a friendship
Sadie:please don't be crazy
Jude:and you don't be so immature, you can't be without a man so you even go with that arrogant man...or you like his rough methods?
Sadie:now stop
Jude:that's what I'm saying, now stop...I will not permit you to humiliate us in front of Chris and our aunty...this is the last time I'm telling you and if you don't listen you can forget about your marriage with Chris Dutois because I will do anything to not let you marry him
And with that Jude left the room.
Sadie:what a stupid bitch
At Darius's office Tommy went to see Darius.
Tommy:am I disturbing?
Darius:no, come in are you here because of Angelica?
Tommy:yes, have you found a home where to put her?
Darius:no, and to tell you the truth I don't think it's the right thing to take her somewhere. She's too rebel and wants to do what's in her head I don't think anyone will accept her
Tommy:she grew up in streets Darius no parent or relatives she had always to take care of herself
Darius:yes, I know...how old is she?
Tommy:to be sincere I don't know maybe 16 or 17 why?
Darius:because know she's in age that she can marry and if I can find her a guy who works hard and good she can get married and you will not have problems
Tommy:and you think it's easy now a day to find someone like this?...we live in a place where rich people are very small in amount and the others are all poor and if they want to eat they have to go to serve in a house or do what I do...I will find someone but I need more time...but if you don't want more to take care of her...
Darius:no, no but I was thinking of something else...while you try and search for this guy we can sent her to the convent with the nuns?...there she can work and she can have a place where to stay and to eat I can talk to father Dominic I think it's a good idea
Tommy:I have to ask your forgiveness, I was wrong with you when you get me out of prison.
Darius:ah, it's about time...it's the first time I hear you say something of sense and I'm happy to hear it...Chris is...
Tommy:no...no it's not about Chris but just about you...you are the only person that I feel in debit with...you gave me to eat when I was hungry...you learned me how to read, write you were the one that educate me
Darius:but I don't think it served for anything...you decided to live this life...you're full of anger and hate but it's time that you forget about the past all the hurt that is taking your hearth away...Chris is back and he reserves a good memory of you and he's ready to help you
Tommy:and he only offers me a job as a servant?...this is how he wants to help me?...or he found out the truth and he had to get me out of the prison?
Darius:I guaranty you that he doesn't know a thing...you're just not thankful for what he offered
Tommy:and why should I be? That old bastard had seduced my mother and because of his fault Alimondi refused to give me his name...I have to thank them for taking away from me the affection of a family, of a name
Darius:but Chris doesn't have any...
Tommy:neither do I...please don't talk to me anymore about him and don't give him anymore my details
Darius:you're so stubborn Tommy
Tommy:yes, and I thank god because this stubbornness I have that let me live...with your permission I leave
