SO WE COULD BE TOGETHER...

Chapter 2

"We're going to the ball..."

Georgie was in her room getting ready to go to bed. She had come back to England a week before to look for her origins, once again. Everything started when she'd learned the young woman they found her on when she was a baby was not her real mother. She was adopted as a baby. The orphanage had given the gold bracelet to her adoptive parents, which they had found in the carrycot in which she was abandoned. They told that her mom went back to America to start over far away from all the bad memories. Against Abel and Arthur's opinion, she left Australia once again, for England. She was killing two birds with one stone. She needed to get away from her "brothers". They were both in love with her. She loved them very much, but she couldn't choose one, without hurting the other. So after discovering all those things on her origins she decided to go look for her mother. Abel and Arthur were sorry to see her leave. She didn't want them to come with her, so they won't get any false hopes. Her decision was made, she won't choose between her two brothers. She thought about Laurent and the sacrifice she made to save his life. Because of his illness, she gave him back to his family because she couldn't provide any medical care for him. She had to make the most difficult decision of her life, to abandon the man she loved to save his life. She'd sold her gold bracelet, her only link to her mother. She went to the jewellery store to see if it was still there, but it had of course already been sold. She thought about the young man who thought she was his girlfriend. He was charming, and handsome. How did he call her again? Oh yeah, Candy. Did she really look like her? Maybe, she'll never know, her thought went back to quest of her mother. She prayed to find the bracelet, she didn't know how, but she had to find it. It was the only link to her real mother. But, where can she start? She remembered the words from the gospel "do not worry about tomorrow, tomorrow will worry about it self, each day has enough trouble of its own". She decided to follow those nice wisdom words of the bible and she went to bed and fall in a sleep with no dreams.

Candy woke up very late the next morning. The day before, had tired her a lot, she slept until 12 o'clock. She took a shower and went downstairs to have something to eat. The innkeeper told her that Terry had gone out and had given the order to let her sleep. The innkeeper gave her something to eat. She finished her food and went outside for a walk.

Meanwhile, at St. Paul College, Candy's friends were stunned and sad that she'd ran away. She'd rather left the college than to stay there without Terry.

- Do you think she left with him? Asked Archie to his brother.

- "Him" who? Asked Stear a little distracted.

- That damned English! That Grandchester!

- Apparently, that's what's coming out of the simultaneous disappearance.

- What does he have more than me? Why does she love him so much? He was arrogant and...

- ...wasn't the one her best friend was in love with. Come on Archie, you know she'll see in you only a good friend and in me too, for that matter. For reasons unknown, she first preferred Anthony and now Grandchester. You and I will only be good friends.

- But I miss her so much already. Her presence made this cold and brittle college into a nice place, almost a fun place.

Stear didn't say anything. He was suffering in silence of Candy's departure.

Annie and Patty were in their room they both had a gloomy expression. Their best friend had left them to follow her dreams, to be with the one she loved. The college wasn't the same without Candy. She always brought joy where ever she passed.
