Chapter one
In a small room, a cell like room, sits a beautiful young lady on a wooden rocking chair. Her name, Mrs Zegero. Adjacent of her is a twin mattress. A sigh escapes her lips as she rocks back and forth. Right before her very eyes is a door, locked. The door knob starts to move and instantly she stills. Then enters Madeleine not much younger than she is, a smile plastered on her face, she stretches out her right hand. There rests two small drug tablets.
"Here you go, Mrs Zegero." Ms Zegero steals a glance at the cup, then continues her rocking, ignoring the gesture in front of her. Mrs Zegero releases a sigh, then says "must you treat me as though i have gone mad?" T'was all she could manage despite the insult hidden in the small white cup.
"My dear Mrs, you are in a mental institution and so you must accept your meds!"
"Madeline do you call me mental"
"No ma'am you misunderstood"
"Did you not only seconds ago refer to me mental due to the fact that i sit in this chair, in this building know to others as a place that houses the unstable?"
"Yes but ma'am"
Mrs Zegero interupts not letting Madeleine finish "do not call me ma'am, have i aged so that you must insult me so?"
"No Mrs, i am sorry"
Mrs Zegero expression softened "but Mrs does not fit me"she says.
Madeline stepped back confused "i am widowed" shouted Mrs Zegero .
Madeline drops the cup on Mrs Zegero's bed.
"I am widowed" she whispers as tears run escaping her eyes.
Madeline quickly strides towards the door and leaves.
Mrs Zegero continues her rocking.
.................
"Here i am!" Shouts Adele. Roseanne recognizes the voice "oh, Adele, Adele! How i have missed you." Adele wraps her arms around Roseanne and says "lie to me not, you are a child of sorts, surely you were too bussy to miss me."
"Yes" Roseanne replied "but summer was such a bore without you" she added.
Adele pleased with this answer took Roseanne by the arm and together they walked down the hallway.
"What subject is it you have first?." Adele asks.
"Oh calculus"
"What room?"
"219" replies Roseanne.
"Might Mr. Luca be your teacher?"
"Yes, do you have him too?" Roseanna could not hide the hope that they might be in the same class and so when Adele said yes Roseann's smile beamed brighter than the sun.
...................
"Madeline you've returned? So soon?" Says Mrs Zegero.
"Yes i have your lunch" says Madeline, careful not to look Mrs Zegero in the eye.
Mrs Zegero sighs eyeing the tray in front of her "but i have no appetite"
"Once tou eat your appetite will return" says Madeline "but i do not wish for my appetite to return" says Mrs Zegero. Madeline not sure what to say to this carefully places the tray beside the white cup, then turns to leave.
..................
Adele and Roseanne arm in arm enter class together. "My name is Luca, you shall not call me Mr. Luca ....... because, rather i find it insulting, i am Luca and only Luca is what you shall call me." Luca turns to the girls and says "ladies why are you late?" Adele quick to respond "we hadn't realized the bell rang." Roseanna was still, shocked as though the world had stopped. The man in front of her verry eyes was beautiful, handsome. It was as though her brain had stopped functioning, she felt as though she had died and gone to heaven for Luca was beautiful, his face perfectly sculpted, his eyes aqua green. It wasn't untill Adele asked "are you alright?" That Roseanne realized dhe couldn't breathe. Luca realizing Roseannes uneven breathing pointed to Adele and said "take her to the nurse."
..............
It was about 7pm that evening when Mrs Zegero heard her stomach growl. She was confused unhappy. She did not understand why things had played the way they had, ehy her life was as it is. She pulled her knees to her chest and started rocking back and forth. Muffled sounds escaped her mouth, her eyes turned red, her face pale. She started to cry. She lifted her head to the celine searching for something but finding nothing. She turned her face to the door, the river in her eyes unsettling continued to flow. "Why must i suffer because i loved?"she screamed.
