Cruely Yours

Chapter 8

R: I had a feeling you would want to talk to me. I have heard that you interview my lovely wife. I love her so much. She is the best thing that has ever happened to me.

I: Yes, but, I am not quite done with that. I wanted to hear from you as well. I know you have some… experence with her. I want to bring out the full story about her.

R: That is a fair point and I agree that it does need to be out there. After all that we have gone through with her this is the least we can do. I was the one who made the song about her.



My part in this hell of a tale is when I was a young teen. I have gone missing according to my family. It was a cold night when I left. I went to the upper class school early. I did not want to be like my father at all. I studied music while I was there.

I saw Anita wrapped around Cruella as they walked around the campus. I did watch from afar and sort of developed a crush for her. That is beside the point I want to make. I can tell that she was not treating Anita well. She was also in my class for mathmatics. Anita sat by me and at first she did not speak a word. By a month into school her and I were talking all sorts of things. I did not know at the time she came from an upper class family as well.

I had a lot to think on before I left for the my service time. I was the middle child of my family. I no longer see any of them for personal reasons. Cruella has used my own past against me because she over heard me taling about it with my old friend. I met her offically in November and I could see the crazy eyes she still has to this day.

That to me was scarring in a way. I will never forget the threat she gave me when she found out about the crush had.

C: I will tell you this, you scoundrel of a man. You so much at touch her and I will have you set on fire.

R: I-I wo- won’t hurt her

C: Remember where you stand next to us. You are lucky that I am willing to tolerate you. Don’t push it.

After that she stayed away but still close to watch my every move. I have to keep myself upright if I wanted ti even have a chance of going out with her. My dorm was smaller than my brothers room. He was going to leave soon and I wanted it to happen sooner rather than later. I could not stand my older brother being near the same space as me. I need to do get all the workshop stuff done before next week. That is the only class I do not want to be in.

She kept on stalking me like a hawk for prey. I could not at that tell you the fear I felt being at that school everyday. It wasn’t easy having her constantly over my shoulder. I had a harder time trying to make any form of a friend other than Anita later on. That is as far as my memory of school goes for me.

I was in my 20s when I started a full time job. I was still doing music and I was in college for it. I was far more lanky than I am now. There was a small apartment near the college. It was nice to be on my own at that time, but I did get lonely most of the time. I made the choice that day to see the shelter down the street from my apartment . There were all sorts of pets waiting to be adopted. In the back of the shelter was a small dalmation puppy. I was super happy to find one. It was a small dream of mine to get a dalmation. He had the smallest adooption fee.

It took a few months to train him well. He was by my side. This is not the dog you all know and love. This dog was named Coda and he had some compliations. It was not long before he passed away 2 years before I got Pongo.

Pongo is the greatest dog I ever known. He is a silly old boy, but I know he is a great father to his puppies. Even after all they went through. I would not change that for the world. It is even better now with being on the farm. There is a lot of open space for them run around. Miss. Pickett loves having more room to cook and make meals. It does take a lot to keep up with but I enjoy it none the less.

I think it is for the best she stays in Hell Hall. I am sure she won’t do this again. She is to insane to come out of that old decreped place. It is for the best that it turned out this way. I just want to make sure she could never do this again. This is the best place on the country side of the UK.



I: It sounds like she was a lot to deal with

R: She was for sure a lot to deal with. I know that Anita has a long history with her. I know she is not done telling you everything. There is not much more I can give you about her.

I: I will continue working with her then and get the full story by next week. I will keep you updated on when I finish. Maybe you could make a song based on the full story.

R: I do say, that is not a bad idea. I would love to do that when you are done with the story. I have been in a little creative dump lately.

A: Rodger dear, it’s tea time! Miss.Pickett made your favorite dish. Please come down when you are done.

R: Yes dear, I will be there in moment. You should start heading out unless you want to stay for tea with us. I don’t think Anita will mind.

I: I will be on my way out, I have to head back to Hell Hall by morning. You know how she can be about being late.

It was late that evening that I arrived back from that interview. It would be too long of a drive to head back to Hell Hall. Rodger was an anxious mess after what Cruella had done a month ago. She was not fit to stand in her own trial. Those puppies have gone through enough. I have thought about adopting one or two myself. That is not what needs my focus.

Anita has a lot more to say about their relationship and wants to finaly be open about it. I knew why she did not want to say anything.
