Sweeney Todd: Happely ever after?

"Do I know you mister" the bagger woman asked. How would I know this Beggar woman? But then I looked into her eyes. Them eyes, I KNEW THEM EYES! I saw she also had blonde hair. Almost gold. Could it be? Mrs Lovett said the was dead, that she took a poisson! Why would she lie? "Lucy?" I asked hoping it actually would be my love Lucy. "Yes.. But who are you? You remind me of someone you see. I had a man and a daughter but he got send to prison for no reason after he-" she stopped talking and sobbed in silence. "LUCY IT'S ME BENJAMIN!" I found myself screaming. I wanted to hug her, kiss her, make a whole life with her. "Benjamin, but you- and I and- OH Benjamin I've missed you so much!" I kissed here softly staring into her blue ocean eyes how I've her so much!

At that moment Anthony ran in. "Mister Todd I... Oh I'm sorry did I disterbe you?" He asked a bit conserned after seeing me kiss the 'beggar woman'. "No no not at all. Ih Anthony this must be the best day of my life! Remember how I told you about the Barber and his wife? That was me and his wife is Lucy" I put away her hat and let her hair fall down. "Oh that's beautiful mister Todd. And what about your baby daughter? Did you find her? Anyways guys I wanted you to meet Johanna. We're going back to America. Can she and I stay here for the night mr Todd?" I guess it was both our lucky day. "Look son, I forgot to tell you something. Johanna is my daughter. See judge Turpin adopted her and she has the same eyes and hair as her mother as you can see" Johanna looked at me in shock. "Mom? Dad?" She ran to us and gave us a hug. "I'm so sorry Johanna we couldn't do anything about it. I'll tell you the whole story at dinner!"

After dinner we spoke a lot. "Okay so tomorrow is a big day I guess I'm going to sleep. Are you coming my love?" Anthony asked watching Johanna with loving eyes. "How is it a big day tomorrow?" Toby asked watching Johanna and Anthony stand up. "Well we're going back to America. You can join us if you want. But I don't think you'll like it very much" mrs Lovett world just kinda collapsed. She lost mr Todd now just when she almost had him. "No it's okay I-I'll stay here" she managed to say staring to the table.

Everyone was awake very early today. We packed our bags and left. "Look thanks for everything mrs Lovett. I'll remember you forever. We might come back to London once, but I don't know when. So I guess this is goodbye for a little while. Bye mrs Lovett, Toby" I said shaking toby's hair with my hand. "Don't go... I love you" mrs Lovett was thinking but it was too late. They left and probably never come back.

We walked a few miles before we arrived at the port. I never tought I would ever go on a boat again but I had my daughter, my Lucy and one of my only friends Anthony. What could possibly go wrong?

When we arrived in America, New York we had no idea what to do. "So mister Todd are you going back to Benjamin Barker or will you stay Sweeney Todd?" Anthony asked. That was actually a really good question I haven't really tought about that and changing back to Benjamin will be really weird. "Yes dad will you be mister Barker again? We can be a normal family" she was right. I had to go back to Benjamin. I had to die my hair brown again. I said Benjami Barker was dead but well I also tought Lucy was dead and she wasn't. It'd be fair for her and for my Johanna to go back to normal I guess. "You know what You are right. I am going back to Benjamin Barker. I'll be the dad I've never been. The husband I've never been" I gave them a tight hug. All these years of hate. All these years fighting for my girls. And now I had them and nothing could take it away anymore. I noticed Lucy changed a big. She didn't talk very much anymore and her hair became more grey. She was very in herself but I can't blame her. She got raped, spelt on the street,... I guess the tought the same thing about me. I have black hair now and before soft brown. I was always had this smile on my face but now I tought more and more and the smile went missing. And Johanna oh Johanna she grew up so much and I missed it all. Her whole childhood she've been thinking judge Turpin was her dad and now I'm suddenly here. Well at least I'd never ask to marry her.

Once we docked we were standing in the middle of New York. "Well are we staying in New York or shall we go to another state?" I asked. I actually really didn't want to stay in New York but okay. "Well you know it was always a dream of mine to go to Chippewa Falls in Wisconsin sweet heart can we go?" Lucy asked with her beautiful voice. I couldn't get enough of that voice it was simply beautiful. So somehow we managed to get to Wisconsin. It was a long trip but well I had Lucy and Anthony had Johanna. Johanna and Anthony were perfect for eachother really. He was willing to give up everything for her.

It was end novembre and of course Chippewa falls was pretty cold this time of the year. We didn't really have any cothes except for me and Anthony, we had a few jackets and blouses but poor Lucy had nothing from after the rape when she started living as beggarwoman and Johanna once had everything except for freedom. And he left everything behind for it. "Johanna you seem very cold my sweet" Anthony said while putting his jacket on her shoulders. "No I'm fine Anthony really it's just all that timediffrence and stuff makes me kinda sick." I knew she liad. I knew there was something, I might never really been there but I know my girl I know when she's not telling the truth. She was staring with glassy eyes and her blonde hair all over the place. I toke a blanket and put it over Lucy's shoulders.

"Okay maybe it would be a good idea if we go to a hotel overnight or something because I don't think we can rent a house now, it's getting dark and we are running out of money" Anthony said looking a bit concerned how we were gonna buy or rent a house with no money. "You're totally right Anthony, I think it's best if you and me are going to look for a job tomorrow. We can use all the money we can get" I finally said. I didn't feel like working at all but I knew we had to, if I wanted a good life for Lucy. We arrived at a hotel, it wasn't the best one but it was cheap and well it had a bed and a bathroom so good enough I guess. "We'll only get 2 rooms, One for me and Lucy and one for you guys. I'm very Johanna but you'll have to sleep in a bed with Anthony. We can't take another room 'cause they're all booked" I said. Anthony would never do something to my girl. He was a too good friend. He was too in love with her. "I understand father, that's no problem at all. I'd rather be free and have less comford than be locked up all my life." The way she spoke, so soft, so... SAD. Why was she sad? She had a real father now a real mother and a boy who loved her. Maybe she liked London better than the very cold Chippewa falls. And well the poor girl had nothing left anymore.

The night went by and Anthony and I went lookig for a job. I started to give shaves on the street for some money and Anthony well I actually wouldn't know. He said he wanted to work but it didn't matter what he did, as long as he got money for the girls. The day went by and I got some money, enough to stay in the hotel for another two days and if me and Anthony worked really hard we should be able to rent a small house for us.
