Chapter 13
"The reverend mother's wrath"
Candy was waiting for the signal to go to the boys' room. She hadn't been there in a long time, because she went to see Terry in his room during his recovery. Archie saw her go to Terry's room and he was heartbroken, but he couldn't say anything, he was suffering in silence. Candy was telling them she had things to do.
"Yeah yeah right! Those things to do was to see Grandchester!"
They had also heard the rumour that said that Terry was sick. So, Candy was taking care of him.
- Do you think she's going to come this time? She always seemed busy, but I saw her to go Grandchester's room next door...
- Well she was probably visiting him, since he was sick....
- That doesn't bother you at all?
- What would be the point? What will it bring me? She loves Grandchester, you have to accept it and stop sulking, she's going to get here soon...
Candy was in her room, waiting for the signal, and she saw it and she started to swing from branch and branch. But the boys signal disappeared before she could get there.
"Oh but... which window is it again? I can't see anything. I'm going to chose... and hope I fall in the boys room, otherwise it will Terry's room... I haven't seen him today, by the way. I wonder why..."
She chose a room and fell, of course in Terry's room!!
- Alistair? Archibald? She called
She saw a picture on the floor, it was Eleonor Baker, a famous actress, and the word "dead" was written twice on it.
- "To my son Terrence"... her son Terrence? Terry is Eleonor Baker's son, the famous actress? Oh...my God!
She heard some noise and the door opened. Terry came in, the face angry.
- Candy, what are you doing here? I'm not sick, you don't need to come and see me anymore!
He didn't see to be in a good mood.
- For your information, I didn't come to see you! Why would I lose my time with a lout like you? I came to see my cousins, and I made a mistake on the window, that's all! But with that kind of greeting, you won't see me in your room anymore!
She walked to the window and she dropped Eleonor Baker's picture. Terry arrived and picked up the picture and ripped it.
- Don't tell anybody...he said
- Whom am I going to tell? It's your secret Terry, I won't betray you...
- Can you leave me alone, now?
- Of course Terry... I'm going to see my cousins...
He wasn't in a good mood and she had felt it. She didn't insist and left by the balcony. She saw Alistair and Archibald on the balcony next door.
- Candy, said Alistair, come quickly
- I'm coming she said smiling
She climbed and she went on Stear and Archie's balcony.
- You wanted to see him first, said Archie
- No, your signal was off, and I got the wrong room, said Candy
- Really? I didn't think you would remember us, said Archie
- I promised you I'd come didn't I? Said Candy smiling
