The Tenant of Wildfell Hall and Marrying Money

So, marrying money is a big theme in this book, like it is in a great many books from this time period. Annabella marries for money (she would have married Huntingdon if he hadn't spent most of his first), Helen is warned not to marry for money (alone, but certainly marrying no money at all would have been equally frowned upon), Eliza Millward tries to marry for what, for her, would be money, Esther Hargrave fights for years against marrying for money, Jane Wilson tries very hard to marry money and fails, much to the delight of our ever-so-delightful narrator.

There's a pretty clear virtue component to marrying/not marrying for money: Annabella, Eliza, and Jane are represented very negatively in the text, and Helen and Esther and, presumably, Rose, are represented positively. I genuinely can't remember how Milicent's husband is positioned - obviously he has some money, and he didn't waste as much as Huntingdon, but he definitely wasted some? Anyway, Milicent is represented positively.

However, marrying money, or marrying up, is not explicitly characterized as sinful/representative of a bad character; it is only when it is the PRIMARY reason for marrying that the text considers it negative. Huntingdon has a higher social class than Helen, it seems, and certainly USED to have more money; she's got a very small portion. Mr. Lawrence seems to have more money than the Hargraves, certainly by the time Mr. Hargrave is done with the family fortune.

Then there's Gilbert. He's a gentleman farmer - a minor landowner who doesn't have to work the fields himself, but not a man of leisure. He has a lot of responsibilities (which he regularly shirks in the first third of the book...), and they include direct supervision of labourers, which would not be what a proper gentleman did. So, marrying an impoverished widow, being more high in the instep than him, is a step up socially, but because she's poor, no one's going to directly accuse him of social climbing.

Then we find out that, since they were chillin' together, she has become very rich indeed! (Rich uncles abound in Brontë stories, I have noticed). He makes sure to learn where she stands before he goes to see her - when he finds out she's inherited, he plans to leave without seeing her. The social consequences of being thought a fortune hunter and marrying out of his class are enough of a negative, combined with the social disadvantage to Helen of marrying down, that he's disinclined to pursue it, even though he's sure they're soulmates.

We don't get a representation of how this actually pans out in the book - presumably people eventually forget about the scandal of it all - but Helen, once she persuades Gilbert that she's actually down to marry him, does insist that they take longer than the social norm to marry to persuade people that he's not a fortune hunter, and tells him that he needs to win over her aunt.

This is really interesting to me because we get so many descriptions of women being warned to watch out for fortune hunters in books from this era, but most of the time, it's the women who are on the make and the men who marry the portionless girls. I'm thinking Lizzy Bennet, Lady Audley, Jane Eyre (before the inheritance...). Wickham tries to marry Georgiana but fails. Socially, it's clearly considered a necessary evil for women to pursue men of higher status and wealth than themselves, but for men, it is an unnecessary evil--as a result of their ability to make a living independently, they have no business marrying heiresses. Heiresses, of course, have a duty to marry heirs or men of higher social class to continue to compound wealth.

I'm not sure I have a conclusion to this, just that it's surprisingly plainly laid out in this book that if you're a woman, you do what you gotta do, and it usually sucks, and if you're a man, you'd better not. I suspect that were Gilbert and Helen less inclined to their solitary walks and reading, and Helen less hardened to the social judgment of her class, they would have had a far harder time than they probably did.

#the tenant of wildfell hall #anne bronte #what a book that was #I'm glad Gilbert learned from his mistakes but I still can't like him #also it was really astonishing to me how young they were #Milicent's husband was like AM I TOO HARDENED IN VICE AT 26 TO EVER CHANGE #and I was like sir you are an INFANT #no wonder everything's going wrong for these people #his brain hadn't even matured till 25!#yet he had already had two kids and was expected to be running an estate #and had apparently lost his dad some time before because he'd already inherited #poor guy

GET TO KNOW MY OC

I was tagged by the awesome @blind-the-winds

I've been tagged before so I'm going to leave this: OPEN TAG for anyone who wants to!

I've done Cruz and Dartan, so now I'm going to do one of the ladies: Annabella

Relationship - Widowed and unmated at the moment...*shrugs with a smirk* I have met my angel and I'm pretty damn happy with him. *grins and winks*

Favorite Color - Red. Everything about red is passionate and vibrant. When wearing red you can't help but capture attention.

Favorite Food - Jean Pierre's crawfish and crab etouffee. He has been making for near on a century and the creamy texture with the rich seafood is divine on the tongue. It is a definite foodgasm and is something I consider foreplay. I'm sure his husband agrees.

Song Stuck In My Head - Halo by Beyonce. Every time I look at my angel, it starts over. When you see him, you'll understand. *takes a deep breath, her eyes narrowing and pulse increasing at just the thought*

Last Thing I Searched - How to separate a pixie's wings that had been stuck together by superglue by a troll. It was a very delicate procedure, but we were able to accomplish the task with the help of a few obscure texts on solvents that did not destroy the delicate chitin of the wings.

Time - 9AM in New Orleans. I have no idea in Imperium. Time here is so irrelevant.

Last Thing I Read - An obscure text on the mating ritual of wargs. There is one loose in Norway that my angel and I will be going to investigate soon. We think she's in heat.

Last Book I Enjoyed Reading - I enjoy them all. I learn something from them all and after 290 years, it is good to be reminded that there is still more to learn.

Favorite Thing To Cook/Bake - Anything with my angel. He is a talented chef in the kitchen and makes it very fun. We recently did lasagna and...well...it was divine, and the bake time was not waste. *mischievous smirk*

Favorite Thing To Do In My Free Time - Travel with my angel. Now that I don't have to depend on planes, trains, and automobiles, I love traveling the globe. A day in Egypt, an evening in India, dinner in Paris, breakfast in London. It's divine. Although the Maldives are I think my favorite place on Earth.

Most Niche Dislike - Whatever killed my husband and children. I will get my revenge, and now I have allies who can help me hunt them. Etienne was one thing, but they will pay and pay dearly for harming my babies. I will ensure that before they are sent to whatever afterlife they have that they suffer immensely, and if I am able to send them to Abriella's Caligo, I will do so with glee. They fucked with the wrong mother!

Do I have a good sense of direction - Cher, I've been alive for almost 300 years. I can tell the cardinal directions by the movement of the sun. I live in a city based around a winding river. I can find my way out of anywhere. Put me in a maze and I will find my way out and kick your ass doing it. Don't test me. *winks with a sassy smirk*

Miraculous Tales of Scarabella & Onyx Kitty - Original Characters

Christopher “Chris”/Dance Breaker/Omega

A punk, loner and delinquent teen who moved from Britain to Paris to live with his aunt and uncle, to get a fresh start from his problems at home.

Yes, he will get character development.

He just turned 16. He failed a grade.

He has a very blunt and honest mouth.

He has a crush on Marinette, but he dislikes Adrien because of his own dislike for spoiled rich kids.

So you have may guessed, he dislikes Chloe too due to being one of those rich kids.

Alya decides to give Chris the benefit of the doubt due to Marinette’s wishes.

He’s into punk fashion, street art and street dancing.

He’s in Ms. Mendeleiev's class.

He appears in “season 2”.

His akumatized form is Dance Breaker.

He occasionally possesses the wolf miraculous, becoming the wolf-themed superhero, Omega.

Jean Duparc/Magician of Misfortune/Bat Magician

Magician of Misfortune will most likely become an actual episode.

Jean will become a more in-depth actual character that will appear in the series sometimes.

Jean's heart and soul is into magic, but he's not very good at it.

He's in Ms. Mendeleiev's class.

He always tries to impress his parents in anyway that he can.

He occasionally possesses the bat miraculous, becoming the bat-themed superhero, Bat Magician.

Jeanie Raincomprix/Honest Queen/Miss Apex

She's Sabrina's cousin.

She's the same age as Sabrina.

She's the opposite of Sabrina; blunt, thick-skinned, honest, but confident and perky.

She's one inch taller than Sabrina.

Her and Sabrina don't have the best relationship, but ultimately gets close as time goes on.

She's in Ms. Mendeleiev's class.

Though outspoken, she has a hard time making friends.

She has 8 younger siblings. She's the oldest.

He's short, but taller than Fu.

He knows that Master Fu is/was the guardian of the Miraculous.

He is gay and has feelings for Fu.

He's really old like Fu, but a bit younger than him.

He’s a retired jazz singer.

He met Fu a few years after he and Marianne was separated.

He has worn a miraculous before. Still deciding which one.

I was thinking about making him the guardian of the fan made miraculouses that I’ve made.

Israel Corbin

He's Sabrina 18 year old half older brother.

He currently stays with his mother in Brazil, but I do plan for him to make an appearance.

He's intelligent, like Sabrina.

He’s sweet, but well-reserved.

He loves and cares for his little sister.

Annabella/Dark Swan/Flaminga

She use to attend the same ballet classes as Chloe, so they’re old acquaintances/classmates.

She’s a professional ballet dancer now.

Though seem prim, she’s anything but in reality. Basically, she’s like another Chloe.

She’s pretty on the outside and presents herself as a sweet and innocent angel, but deep down, she can be manipulative, cunning, brutally honest and snobbish.

Yes, she’s like this, but like with Chloe, she’s not like this for no reason.

Will she get a redemption arc? We’ll see.

She attends the same school as Kagami and Ondine, so she sometimes seen wearing the same uniform as Kagami.

She’s half Korean.

Her Akumatized form is Dark Swan.

In the future, she will temporarily hold the Flamingo miraculous, which will turn her into the flamingo-themed superhero, Flaminga.

((More might be added later.))

what are your. what are your ocs names

THANK YOU OKAY OKAY

okay so…. THERE IS GRAHAM. big man graham right he’s a cool fella yippiee! his full name is graham jonathan child && baisically. BAISICALLY!! the first two names symbolize what he thinks of himself, and how he presents himself to others ;; mature & responsible etc… HOWEVER his last name shows that he is 8n fact just a kid.

NEXT UP ON THE LIST….. clementine “clemmie” delilah illingworth-rudd ! her name absolutely STINKS of rich-ness and the upper class, showing her regal nature, buuut her final surname rudd is just a common fish. she won’t be missed. “clemmie” is her way of rejecting her family! ^_^ ALSO ophelia is a reference to the character from hamlet… showing that if her family had decised to keep her (plot thing) she would have been married off !

NOW!! my little meow meow ! jane annabella rose pickett;; the first three names (all chosen by his family) show the forced feminization of his being and the pressure he feels from being seen, born and raised as a lady (transgenderism) ! his names are overwhelmingly feminine to the point at which pickett is refreshing - and he certainly thinks so too! he’s referred to as pickett the majority of the time by the rest of the cast additionally, the surname pickett would imply that the bearer would live at the bottom of a hill with a sharp point at the top. it’ his shelter !!

SPEAKING OF TRANS PEOPLE. we have brackett anthony-eliza daly! daly means “descendant of dálach” && this puts emphasis on the fact that no one knows who their father is, and their mother (as did all the characters but thats a plot point teehee) died in childbirth with no records to her forename. the contrasting names of anthony & eliza being double-barrelled show not only their struggle with relating to binary gender, but also inernal conflict in various moments in the story . the name brackett means a hound that hunts by scent,, which also represents their genius !! (not me showing favoritism them being a genius + following clues easily is ALSO. aplot point)

theodore “theo” frederick summers and benjamin “benny” jacob summers are up next !! they r twins (irrelevant but i’m just adding context …);; both of their forenames are biblical names, showing their relation to religion - and then their later rejection to god, as the usage of the more childish nicknames prevent any religion from being correlated to them both. however, benny’s middle name is still from the bible - showing HIS later struggle with religion as he grows older, contrasting theo’s, who never had any problems with it. ALSO, the last name summers would mean the bearer worked in the house of someone named somer. that’s all they r to the outer world;; workers !!

finally there is tulip. idk what to say about her………shes like eight

ANYWAY THATS ALL. THANK UOU FOR READING

#under the cut is a name analysis….fair warning :smile:#the paragraphs r short bc im bad at articulating my thoughts….hi #ALSO. pickett is trans in a world that doesn’t rlly know what trans is #so he doesn’t know he can come out; change names; change sex; etc. its just not an option for him #i’m using his deadname bc thats what he went by but in a more modernized au he wouldn’t be “jane”#brackett only happens to be nb out of luck; they’re a mystery to the rest of the cast anyway so they don’t need to ask “can you call me-#-they” because that’s already how they resort to #ocposting

The Beginning Of The End - Gianna/Annabella

A/N: @jmathesonandsiblings - Well here it is. Nearly done with the Scary Story Prompts collection.

“How tragic that it must end this way…” Mocking. Painful mocking. The words make Gianna so angry she chases Annabella’s parents away one last time, slams the doors shut and locks them behind the pair, her eyes are stinging with tears as she moves back to Annabella. Small, fragile, Annabella, who she can’t keep alive anymore. “It’s alright… I’m here.” Gianna’s voice is tender where Annabella’s mother had been harsh. Gianna’s touch is light now, careful. Blonde hair seeming to shine, blue-green eyes turning warmer the more Annabella fades. She will stay with her through the end. Annabella’s eyes, deep, dark brown eyes, slip closed and Annabella’s rich brown hair seems to fade as she slips under one last time. Annabella is cold under Gianna’s touch and Gianna’s eyes slide closed once again. “Goodbye my Angel…” Annabella seems to settle as Gianna’s eyes open again, her body tensing at the feeling of Annabella’s arms around her, soft lips finding her ear. Her precious girl, it seemed, had come to stay with her. “I’m here my Love… still here.” Gianna turns easily in her arms and Annabella smiles softly. “Who said Ghosts can’t have love?”

Personal vent

TW ig? Like dysmorphia I think...

Okay. I officially hate myself. I can't find a name, and having to use my current name is so difficult but what else can I do. And the next school year is upcoming. So many introductions. So many forced strained stutters of a name i dont recognize.

I've been looking for over a year now and not really made any head way. I used to have a name for the brief time I came out as a trans man, of which I will refer to as 'J'. This name is connected to that time in my life, and as I am not transgender (I think) I dont really know how to feel about the name. It is also extremely close to my current uncomfortable name. Therefore, I feel as though this name is not a good choice for me although it encompasses what I would ever want from a name. Not to mention the confusion it provokes.

The confusion the whole ordeal provokes. When I say I dont like my name, people laugh and tell me it's a teenager thing, that I'll just grow out of it. They didnt like their names when they were younger, so automatically a phase they had in their life is what I am absolutely going through. It's not like that. My name feels detached from who I am, who I am becoming, what I am; its is not me. I almost choke everytime i have to introduce myself, although when using other names, i dont have any trouble akin to this. Maybe I'm being a silly little teenager. Or maybe I have the right not to be so easily dismissed. Who knows?

My friends are confused as well. The name thing is something I brought up publically shortly after coming out as trans (which I later retracted) and I have been talking about it since. I feel annoying to keep bringing it up, but it is so difficult. I dont know why, but my name just takes me to a bad place. They arent very helpful into the name department either, as I'm not even sure what I'm looking for. My name cant be shortened either. They've heard me vent so much about it, suggested names, done their best, yet nothing seems right. And I am exhausted. I am so, so sick of it. And I think they are too. I dont wanna be that friend. The one who never shuts up. The one who confuses the shit out of people. I've tried so many names that no one knows what to call me now. It's ironic. Ironic and painful.

In summary, I need a name. Desperately. And no one is helping. I dont even know what I'm looking for. Just a name that feels like me. I've been considering options, but the only names I like are male. When I have a boys haircut, and had a brief trans period, I feel like this could create so much more confusion for the people in my life I am too tired to deal with. Names are an uphill battle. I am going to try asking my mum again, and scrolling through dumb baby name websites from when I was born. All I have to go on is that I want something casual, and relevant to the years I was born. Nothing abstract nor too heavily gendered. Preferably a name that dosent make me sound like a rich brat (Elizabeth, Annabella, Theodosia, Edwordia, etc.) But also something I can write on books, unlike my current contender AJ. Overall confusing unisex and y2k. And I need it to fit me, while staying firmly away from my current name. Alot of things with very loose guidelines. A disaster. Dumpster fire. Whatever you wanna call it.

Paparazzi, part one

✍︎ words counts | 2048 words

✈︎ missed out on parts? | part 1, series

When I see you again.

It was Friday, one week later. We reached the airport of Monaco which was already a hard thing bug as soon as we smelled the sun and the air of Monaco I felt better. “God…it’s sooo hot” Olga said and sighed. “Yeah…I love it” i said taking a deep breath with closed eyes before we searched for a taxi. We reached our hotel and what can I say…it was right in the middle of the city, if we wouldn’t have tickets we could watch the race probably from our balcony because it was pretty close. The hotel was really interesting, not really my type but it was perfect for two nights. Olga and I got into the first bedroom and Maureen and Annabelle took the second one. I wasn’t really in for unpacking so I just unzipped the suitcase and got the bags with the hygiene products to bring them into the bathroom we four share. “Well…probably not the best choice” Annabelle said a little embarrassed. “Oh come on, Belle…I already love it here, we all do and I think most of the time we’ll be outside and for those two nights it will do things” i said smiling at her. “I’m so excited” she said as she started to over-line her lips. “Me too…I can’t believe it…we’re in Monaco…watching a race…agh” i said excited giving her a wink at my little pauses. “I can’t wait” she said and I chuckled. “So…you got any plans on what we could do tonight?” i asked her smiling as I brushed through my straightened hair. “Totally” she said smirking. “Let me hear them” i said turning to her. “I found a really beautiful restaurant, we could go around and visit the city a little, doing some shopping, then go to this restaurant and whatever” she said smirking with a nod. “Lit, I like it” i said smirking at her. “Good we got some plans” she said and we struck. “Tell this to the girls…my mom’s calling” i said getting out my phone while she nodded.

We walked through the city and were at the best places and did a lot of sightseeing, thanks to tiktok cause it helped us a lot. Especially right now I was thinking about marrying a rich old man just to cheat him out for his money, we walked down the streets looking at those luxurious fashion stores just like Dior, Chanel, Luis Vuitton, etc which made my jaw drop. “This is insane” i said shaking my head. “Yeah right” Olga whispered, my jaw was still dropped. “Sign the contract and this life is gonna wave at you” she said winking at me. “Funny, Ola, Funny…” i said sarcastically. “Just saying“ she said smirking so I playfully punched her arm which made her laugh. It wasn’t only the luxury or the money or the places or the atmosphere/vibes…it also were the people, they smiled a lot here and it was definitely different to Berlin or Munich. I wasn’t used to this and I needed my time to process it but I liked it. “I might have a shock” i said looking at the women here in Monaco. “You just need a shot” Annabella said chuckling. “Me too…I’ll get thirsty by seeing this” Olga said and we all laughed while walking around trying to see as much as possible which was kinda hard because me and Maureen got literally distracted by anything.

“Now I’m in for the shot to be honest” i said smirking as we sat down on the chairs on the front terrace of the restaurant. The restaurant itself looked like a typical restaurant out of a french movie. “Yeah…me too” Maureen said. “Shots? I’m down” Olga said and Annabelle got us 4 shots.

My eyes were everywhere and I enjoyed the breeze of Monaco, the air and the sun. It was something else and NO comparison to Germany, even the wine tasted better, the food was better, the people were nicer and the weather was better no matter how hot it is and it was even better with my best friends. Maureen was -same as Olga and Annabelle- my best friend since Kindergarten and is same as me half-french, Maureen Grace Lilac-Lane, her beautiful dirty blinde hair went to her chest and shined in the sun even tho she straightened it yesterday. Annabelle Amelia Moreau, she was like a twin of Maureen and a combination of party-girl but also it-girl. Olga Novak, my dearly trusted sister by heart, from the moment she moved from Poland to Munich I knew her and me belong together and like that it was. “Even the wine is better” i said after taking a sip of the wine. “That mist be the water…the Monaco air and all that” Annabelle said and I chuckled. “So how are we doing this tomorrow?” i asked while leaning back in the chair. “Yeah…well the race is starting at 3 p.m so we have the whole morning and noon to ourselves but the catch is that we need to be there at 1 p.m because of the V.I.P tickets, we get to see the paddock, the cars, the pit, everything” Annabelle said super excited. “Wow…I’ve heard the cars are super hot” Maureen said playing with her press-on-nails. “And loud” Olga said next to me. “I want to get some pictures with the drivers” i said and then laughed. “Of course you do, baby” Olga said and laughed with me. “We all do” Maureen corrected and I took another sip of my wine.

(in correct order, Maureen portrayed by Ashley Benson, Annabelle portrayed by Blake Lively, Olga portrayed by Magdalena Lamparska -the right one-)

Charles Pov

I’ve seen a lot of girls in my life but Madeleine was something else, she intrigued me, she made me curious about her. Madeleine I repeated in my head. In Monaco you see a lot of woman, beautiful women but almost everyone of them had done something to them in a surgical way but Madeleine was something else, she looked good without that, she didn’t need it. I could swear that she would look beautiful even after waking up in the morning. I had to shake my head and smile as I saw her leave the grocery store. I have never been in Germany or Berlin before but we had a race here and before we leave I wanted to cook something instead of let someone deliver my food.

I was sitting in my uber and got a call from my mother. “Maman…what can I do for you?” i asked her over the phone. “Hello, Charles…I just wanted to ask how it’s going?” she said and I could hear her smile. “Good, we’re doing good, I’ll come over tomorrow when I’m going back” i said softly. “Sounds great, son…you sound…happy…did something happen?” she asked surprised but with a chuckle. “No…I’m just excited to see you again tomorrow” i said my mind going back to the brunette I just met. “I’ll cook something special for you…oh by the way…is Alexandra coming with you” she asked slowly getting serious at the mention of Alexandra. “I don’t know, I don’t think so…she’s busy a lot lately” i said to my mother as she mentioned my girlfriend. “Oh…well…then I’ll make sure to make you a typical french dinner” she said casually. “Sounds good” I said and she said goodbye before ending the call. It was no secret that I had a girlfriend after all me and Alexandra are a couple since 2022 and we weren’t really hiding it. Alexandra was not my first girlfriend but she was the one that I chose the only problem was that she was always busy and had from time to time less time for me and my family. I don’t care but she also isn’t really the girl for everything, she’s more the girl that looks good and doesn’t leave the house without makeup. There have never been much problems but lately we had more arguments which is quite understandable with my career and how she acted sometimes. Every time we would do something without my fans or my career she got a headache and to be honest I only visited my parents with her two times. I sometimes really had to hold back myself because it annoyed me but I am a really understanding person and I tolerate her things like she does with mine…tho I can’t get the stranger out of my head. I needed to clear my head.

The night was a pretty sleepless one for me because the mattress and the bed made my back hurt and not even Olga cuddling up herself next to me was helping there. I tried my luck on the couch in the living room and kitchen which was a challenge too but less than the bed in my room. I already knew that it would be painful for me in the morning no matter where I slept. “Did you sleep on the couch?” Annabelle whispered facing me as she got out of her room with me laying on the couch scrolling through my phone. “Yeah, the bed killed me” i said annoyed. “Oh shit…sorry” she said grimaced. “Don’t worry…I only got 3 hours of sleep…I hope I’ll don’t fall asleep today” i said rubbing my eyes, putting my phone away. “You won’t, not at the race, trust me” she said smirking before adding “But I think you need a strong coffee, just like me” walking over to make some coffee. “Yes please” i said frustrated which made her chuckle. “I was thinking about going to the beach today” i said walking over to her. “The beach?” Annabelle asked amused. “More the promenade” i said tilting my head. “Sounds good…we’ll wake up Maureen and Olga later and walk down to the Promenade and walk around a little” she said handing me the coffee. “Thanks…Sounds good” i said as we both took a sip of the coffee.

We were dressed up for the race and as always completely plan-less about what we should do. We took a Taxi to the location since the race was going through the whole city. As soon as our tickets were scanned we entered the whole thing and put the tickets with the ribbon on it around our neck. “Okay where are we starting?” Maureen asked confused. “I already talked with a guy I bumped into, he said water is right on the left in there, the toilets are on the left in there and he also told me that we have paddock tickets which actually means that we are standing right at the garages and we get like ear protection that look like headphones cause the cars are driving really loud and you’d hear it from everywhere which sounds a little dramatic to me but hey…better than nothing” i said gesturing with my hands too, as always. “Huh…good thing actually” Olga said nodding while having a confused look on her face. “Okay we’re just gonna walk around look at everything maybe go to that guy so he can give us some advice or tour…and have fun” Annabelle said looking around. “Wait…I might have an idea” she said smirking as she walked up to a random guy and asked him some things while we stood there watching her. “That’s one way to solve it…” Annabelle said impressed. “She’s quite smart actually” Maureen said and we nodded in agreement. “I wouldn’t have recognised the guy so…” i said as we waited for her. She came back with her phone and a mischievous laugh. “What did you get?” I asked curious. “I took notes of the things he said, it’s his third time and he told me the ways and some infos and I got a number too…his number…” she said casually and I laughed. “Cute story…now let’s get going” Olga said as she took Maureen’s phone and read through it to get a little planned.
