Scene D

(Next day, Mother Immaculata asked Simone to meet her in office before the first class.  

Simone doesn’t make Mother Immaculata waiting for long.  She knocks the door and

comes in after heard Mother Immaculata’s voice.  Simone sit down.)

Mother Immaculata:    “Annabelle Tillman is not you student anymore since today.  There’s information I got and I believe it’s true about your special relationship with Annabelle Tillman.”

Simone:                       (touch her head)

                                    “How special?  How did you…”

Mother Immaculata:    (Mother Immaculata raises her face)

“A student.  You has disappointed me, Simone.  Her mother did hope Annabelle could be forgotten who was she in the past.  That’s it.”    

(Mother Immaculata be quiet for a moment)

“Senator Tillman have Annabelle transferred to a prestigious military school.  After Annabelle leaving, Senator Tillman want to see you as soon as possible.  She couldn’t hide her big disappointment of you, Simone.  I thought you’ve walked in the right way.  I really lost words for you.”

Simone:                       (taking a breath deeply)

                                    “Michael and I had broken up.  That’s all I really need to say.”

Mother Immaculata:    “Annabelle is a young girl, Simone.  You can’t trust her.  I don’t mean to create bad impression about her.  We met girls like that several years.  When will you start to learn something from experiences behind?  You are a good teacher.”

Simone:                       “That’s why Annabelle must go away from here not me?  She found friends here.  She just started to repair her attitude.  I know she changed step by step.  Military school just re-invite her old bad soul.  It’s not a solving solution.”

Mother Immaculata:    “At least Annabelle Tillman will stop in love with you.”

Simone:                       “I can’t believe you said that.”

                                    (She stands and leaves Mother Immaculata’s office by let the door opened)
