Crying In The Stars

EP6

...

I'm helping Amy, Andrea, Lori, Jacqui and Carol wash clothes at the quarry. Shane and Carl are trying to catch frogs. Ed is leaning against the car smoking.

- Can someone explain to me why women end up playing the role of Amélia? – Jacqui speaks.

- The world ended, didn't you hear about it? – Amy says

- That's how things are. – Carol says and I hand Jacqui some clothes that I just finished washing.

- You know you don't need to help us, right, dear? You are a child. You can keep joking – Carol speaks.

- But I want to help – I say Carol just smiles gently.

- I miss my washing machine. – Carol comments

- I miss my Mercedes and my GPS. – Andrea says

- I miss my coffee maker, with double filter and built-in grinder, dear – Jacqui speaks.

- And my computer and texting – Amy says

- I miss eating ice cream with my daddy. – I speak

- I miss my vibrator – Andrea says and everyone looks at her. I frown in confusion.

- Me too – Carol agrees, speaking quietly and everyone laughs, except me.

- What is that? – I ask

- Nothing, honey. You'll know when you're older – Carol says after laughing.

- What's the fun? – Ed asks and everyone stops laughing and I roll my eyes hard.

- We're just talking Ed. – Andrea says and he looks at us – Is there a problem, Ed?

- Nothing that's any of your business – He says – You should focus on work. Theis isn't a comedy club. – Andrea gets up with a wet suit in her hands and walks over him.

- If you don't like how your clothes are washed, feel free and wash them yourself. Here. – Andrea says, throws the clothes to Ed who catches them, throws them hard on her chest, making the woman's mouth open and we get up.

- It's not my job, miss – Ed speaks

- Andrea, no! – Amy says trying to stop her sister.

- What's your job, Ed? Sit around smoking? - Andrea says

- Well, it's certainly not listening to a stuck-up, disrespectful bitch. – Ed speaks and looks at Carol – Let's go! Let's go!

- I don't think she needs to go anywhere with you, Ed – Andrea says and Carol gets up

- Carol – I says and I touched her shoulder.

- Girls, please. Nevermind. – Carol speaks

- Hey! Don't think I wouldn't give you concealer just because you're a bitch with a college degree, okay? – Ed tells Andrea who is surprised and points to Carol – You better come soon, otherwise you'll regret it later.

- Will she show up with new bruises later, Ed? – Jacqui says, he looks at her and laughs mockingly. – Yes, we already saw it – Jacqui says

- Stay out of this. Let's go! – The man speaks once again.

- You don't need to go, Carol. – I tell her

- Wants to know? That's none of your business – He says – You won't want to provoke me like that little girl, okay? Enough talk! Let's go! – He grabs Carol arm and pulls her but I grab Carol's arm, stopping her from going.

- No! No, Carol, you don't have to go – I speak

- El, no. It's okay! – Carol says

- You don't rule me, Baby girl, I rule you! – Ed speaks and hits Carol in the face and I pull the woman ways from the man
