Violet Jessop page 2 by ric gustafson
" There you are" Ann exclaimed as Violet entered the crew cabin. " I was just about to send out a search party".
" I was watching a newlywed couple on the promenade".
" Probably Mr and Mrs Marvin". Using a hammer, Ann tagged a calendar to the bulkhead.
" Wasn't that calendar our gift for the New Year?".
" It sure was". Ann put an x through today's date. " In seven days, we will be at Pier 59 in New York".
Violet thought for a moment. " And then 7 days later, we will be back here".
Ann watched as Violet began to unpack her trunk. " Is Mrs Astor as beautiful as you predicted her to be?".
" Actually the opposite". Violet frowned. " She seemed quiet, pale and sad faced".
" How could she be miserable on the arm of the richest man on this ship?".
" Hopefully my situation will improve one day".
Ann stood up. She gave Violet a hug. " It will".
