Chapter 17 (part 2)
At the mansion in the living room Tommy and Jude were talking about
Angelica.
Tommy:she said nothing....did her told you where she was? What happened to her?
Jude:no, I saw....
She was cut off by Anna that entered the living room.
Anna:Am I disturbing?.......Luana told me that you have a sick girl in your room
Jude:yes, she was in convent with me, she an orphan
Anna:and what is she doing here?
Jude:I don't know she's really sick and Mike went to call the doctor
Anna:I don't think it's a great idea that an orphan is here in my house and especially in your room
Jude:it's ok with me I don't care...and I can take care of her
Meanwhile while they were talking Jamie came in and took a place near
Anna to listen what was going on.
Anna:I told you I don't like the idea....I will order that they take her in one of the servant's room
Tommy:no....it's not necessary I will take her personally in my room
Anna:in your room?
Tommy:I don't see why you're so shocked, she's like me an orphan and we came from the same world and if you're worried about her I assure you that it's not in my type to abuse of persons especially when they don't feel good
Tommy and Jude left to take Angelica in Tommy's room. Jamie was still
with Anna and he tried to tell her that he was ready to help her to
throw out Tommy but she said no and Jamie was confused why she
hated him but refused to throw him out.
That evening in Tommy's room the doctor just left and told him that it
was a strong cold and that if she stays fine during the night she will get
better. Now they were just Angelica who was on the bed asleep, Jude
who was wetting a clothe and putting it on Angelica's forehead to help
the temperature go down and Tommy who was standing at the door
where he had entered in that moment. Tommy sat in the chair next to
the bed and near Jude.
Jude:we have to have faith, god will not permit that she dies
Tommy:I don't think that god will have time for these things
Jude:you can't say that
Tommy:if Angelica lives it will not be because of the doctor, medicines or anything else but because of you
He took Jude's hands in his and looked in her eyes.
Tommy:and these hands that are capable of any miracle
Tommy kissed Jude's hands. Jude was taken aback by the gesture but
she felt happy and her hands felt right in his.
In Chris studio Jamie went to tell everything of what happened to Chris.
Jamie:he was arrogant....and there was even Jude
Chris:and what did she say?
Jamie:nothing she just went after him and if I'm not wrong she's still in his room
Chris:Tommy's room?
Jamie:yes, with the excuse to assist that sick girl
Chris was furious about this and made his way towards Tommy's room.
Meanwhile Jude was still helping Angelica and Tommy was standing in
the room watching her.
Jude:I don't think as you, there is nothing moving if god doesn't permit it
Tommy:do you really believe it?
Jude:yes
Tommy:then I should be mad at god
Jude:please don't talk like that we have to be grateful to him
Tommy:for what should I be grateful? For being the son of an affair?...for never having a real family?...never having the love of a family?...brother to talk to?....that I can never have a good respected woman beside me and children by said woman?
Jude:I don't see why you can't do it?
Tommy:because I don't have a name to give her and for this world who don't have a name he is nothing....how you can see I have little to be grateful to god
In that moment there was a knock at the door and Chris called for
Tommy. Tommy went out of the bedroom and opened the door.
Chris:is Jude here?
Tommy:yes
Chris:her gesture was stupid and you were even more for letting her
Tommy:letting what?
Chris:the bedroom of a man is not a place for a gentlewoman
Tommy:if your mother wasn't the one that.....
Tommy was cut off by Jude who heard all they were saying and came
out.
Jude:where you looking for me?
Chris:yes, I know that you care about that girl but I don't think it's appropriate that you stay here
Tommy:why?...............why?....what do you see so inappropriate?....she came to see a sick girl and help her
Jude:please don't fight
Chris:there are other people that can help that girl in this house
Jude:I was the one that wanted to do it she's a girl that I knew at the convent and I wanted to help her
Chris:I know that you did it for good reasons but this is a man's room
Tommy:do you think I'm that type of a guy that throw himself at the first woman he sees?
Chris:don't talk like that in front of her
Tommy:I'm not saying anything a girl at her age doesn't know
Jude:please stop it
Chris:I can see that you don't know how to speak in front of a lady of our class
Tommy:don't play dumb a woman is always a woman it doesn't make difference if she was born in a stable or in a castle.........and while we're talking about how pour are lady of your class I want to tell you something
Jude:no.............I made a mistake and I'm sorry but no more fights please Chris
Chris:fine but tomorrow we will talk Tommy
Tommy:sure
With that Chris and Jude left the room.
