#marcus fusilli

Claire loved what she did for those lost girls. She refrained to have her own career and family to be a surrogate mother for seven troubled girls and she couldn't think of anything better to do. If only money wasn't so tight. But that horrible person of a Mayor Rafferty wanted to see "results" before founding the project further.

Results, what results? Should the girls have splendid grades and go off to college within one season? That was totally impossible.

All the girls were giving their best, but they still were children that had endured horrible things in their lives their were more important things than grades and money, Claire knew. So she was happy to see the girls interact with normal kids after school having friends and being friend with one another too. That was more rewarding to watch that any money Cesar Rafferty could offer her.

A summary of what happened in the first day of the Fusillis’:

Marcus had his first kiss with Odette Farfalle and went steady with her.

The adults had a talk about smoothies.

Nikita shows off her hatred towards Marcus in front of his new girlfriend.

Donna resumes her illicit affair with Grace Linguine.

Angelica and Marcus meet under the wedding arch. Angelica is a little unsure of the match her parents have made for her.

“What if I don’t like him?”

“Don’t worry, mija,” said Esperanza, with a frown. “Look how nervous he is! Oh.”

“We are doing this,” said Vicente quietly. “to secure your future.”

Under the arch, Angelica listened idly to Father Theo as Marcus rambled nervously.

“I mean, I have a girlfriend, and-”

“Marcus?”

“What?”

Angelica smiled tightly, hissing through her teeth, “say your lines.” 

Marcus squeaked. “Oh, yeah, uh, I, uh,I-I accept this blessing.”

Antoine: Poor kid's wiped out.

Marcus: I thought they'd never leave.
