(It ends with Tess 🍭)
I am scared. I am panicked. But I have the upper hand.I have the book.
Mom taught me to be strong.Dad taught me to obey.
Mom was right.Mom was always right.
I closed the book and gave it to Willy,who looked over at me.
I looked back at him and squeezed his hand.
-"Tess what are you doing exactly?" my dad asked and I squeezed Willys hand even more.
-"Exposing you."I replied. "You lied to me."
-"All this time you've been seeing this p.."he started.
-"Poor?" I finished.
-"AUGH-Boy!?"
-"Yes."
-"That's enough family drama." Mr.Slugworth said and stopped both of us.
I held Noodles hand as well.Poor kid was terrified she was shaking all over.
-"You are so disobedient Mr.Wonka.."Slugworth said again. "I thought we made it clear that you leave this town."
-"And not go near my daughter-!"
-"Silence Felix." Slugworth said and my dad closed his mouth. "And you poor little-!"
Willy cut him off.
-"But she's not poor is she Mr.Slugworth?"
What is this boy on.
-"Willy what are you talking about?" Noodle asked as confused as I was.
-"You two are family.Aren't you?"
-"We might as well be." Slugworth claimed and I felt my jaw drop on the floor.
-"You see Noodle...That ring your parents gave you?Mr.Slugworth has the same one." Willy went on.
Oh my he was right.
-"You are actually brilliant Mr.Wonka..Well I do have it.And your ring...Was my brothers.Zebedy's.He was a hopeless romantic for the love of god.."
-"Just like you Tess-!" Dad started again.
-"Silence Felix." Slugworth said again.
-"He was my father?" Noodle asked.
-"A HOPELESS ROMANTIC WAS WHAT HE WAS! He fell in love with a poor girl and died shortly after.Leaving me the only heir to the family wealth.Or so I though."
He sighed and continued.
-"After nine months your mother showed up at my door and begged me to take her sick newborn baby to a doctor.I told her I would."
-"But you didn't...You took me to Scrubbits...And she found me.She thought the ring was an "N".But it was a 'Z'...My dads initial.."Noodle continued.
-"Exactly.And then your mother came at my door and of course I told her you had died.She broke down of course but I sent her away."
Silence.Silence filled the room and it was getting scary.Noodle was holding her dads ring in her hand,dad was looking right at me and Willy held my hand trying to comfort me.
-"What was her name?" Noodle asked and broke the silence.
-"I'm sorry?"
-"My mom.What was her name?"
Willy opened the book and I looked over at him.
-"Her name was Dorothy.Dorothy Smith."He said.
-"Seems like those reading lessons paid off."I said and he smiled at me.
