Terry Terry

Chapter 57 "The Drama will play out"

Marlowe Susann was not happy, he wanted the princess for him and he didn't want her to marry the young doctor. He was trying to get closer to Esther, but it wasn't working; Esther ate drank, slept "Terry". She only talked about Terry from dusk 'til dawn and how he was going to get married with her mummy Candy. So he decided to do the impossible to have Candy, the impossible... he was going to do everything so she will be with him.

He managed to get the role of Romeo and Candy of course was Juliette. Her mother and Esther were there and they went to celebrate the event together. They arrived in her dressing room. Candy took her cell phone to call Terry. She got his voice mail.

- Sapphire Eyes, I've got good news! I got the part of Juliet! I wished you were my Romeo, despite their tragic ending! I'm going to celebrate with Mum and Esther. Hugs and kisses. I love you.

- Tell him I love him too and hugs and kisses too.

- Esther sends you hugs and kisses and she loves you too.

She hung up and left with her mother and Esther. Marlowe met them in the hallway.

- Where are you going?

- We're going to celebrate

- Can I come too? I'm your Romeo...

- Very well, said Candy who was in a good mood, let's go!

So they went to celebrate in a pizzeria, because they had a menu for children. Marlowe was ecstatic, Candy's company made him very happy.

Meanwhile when they were having lunch, the phone rang , it was Terry.

- Terry!

- Congratulations my Juliet!

- Thank you my Romeo, said Candy laughing

- I can't wait to see you on stage...

- I can't wait to see you again, I miss you...

- Give me the phone mummy Candy, let me speak to Terry

- One second, said Candy, Esther wants to speak to you

- Hello Terry?! Hi!

- Hi my angel, Said Terry, are you all right?

- I'm great! Mummy Candy is going to play Juliet!

- You know the story of "Romeo and Juliet"?

- No, but I know the story of "Gnomeo and Juliet", said Esther

- It's almost the same story, said Terry, you know at least the gist of the story

- She's going to have to kiss Romeo on stage...

Terry felt the jealousy in Esther's voice. He smiled.

- It's for the show, sweetie, it's not real, said Terry

- All right, it doesn't bother you?

- Of course it does... but it's her job.., said Terry I have to go back to work, give me you mommy Candy. Hugs and kisses my pretty one

- Hugs and kisses to you too Terry

Then she did the kissing sound with her lips and gave the phone to Candy.

- Sounds like Esther doesn't want you to kiss your partners on stage...

- She usually doesn't pay attention to that, but since she knows "Gnomeo and Juliet"...

- I like that version better than the original... especially for children

- Me too... it's my last play. I'm going to let you go, Sapphire Eyes, I'll talk to you later.

- I love you

- I love you

Marlowe was looking at her.

- What did you mean by "it's your last play"?

- After I get married, I want to be a home maker, said Candy

- But why?

- I want to take care of Esther and my husband

- But she's not even your daughter! Said Marlowe

Candy gave him the look.

- In fact Marlowe, that's none of your business. If I want to raise Esther as my daughter, that's between me and my mother!

- Excuse-me Candy, said Marlowe ashamed, your doctor doesn't want you to work?

- No, the decision is mine, he told me to continue working... I'm the one who wants to be a homemaker... and have Terry and Esther, that's all I need in my life...

- I understand for your doctor, but Esther has a mom, doesn't she?

Candy wanted to strangle him for having this discussion in front of the child. Eleonor decided to intervene.

- Marlowe, ever since she was born, Esther has been living with Candy, she's her second mommy and I trust her completely, That's why she calls her "mummy Candy"...

- Oh ok... I'm sorry, I'm curious, that's all

- Mummy Candy?

- Yes?

- I want to go to the bathroom

- All right sweetie, let's go.

Candy stood up and she took her little sister to go to the washroom. People were looking at them and they were wondering if it was really Princess Candice.

- I don't like Marlowe, mummy Candy

- Esther...

- He's not nice

- Yes, he's nice

- He doesn't like Terry

- Esther, be nice

- I know, Terry always says to be nice with those who don't like us, that way, their blessings will fall back on us...

- He's right, said Candy, because if they continue being mean, they don't deserve the blessings so God is going to give them to you who is nice'

"Thank you Sapphire Eyes" Said Candy to herself smiling.
