Jean And Foot Monologue

Jean and Claude returned to the cabin to giving us to eat the rabbit stew . In the middle of the afternoon, came a man to whom they called Pierre and greeted with much affection and who of course wanted to find out regarding our presence in the cabin . Jean and Claude served the stew, to Pierre for my brothers and myself, and put a plate in the corner of the cabin for Prince, who since he spotted the newcomer, approached him and began to sniff it, moving the tail as it’s recognizing the smell of Pierre's clothes. Ah! - says Pierre- you liking the smell of the sheep? And turning to us asked us Tell me children - Your dog has been a guardian of sheep? Shyly I explained to Pierre that for certain time had lived on the mountain and
Prince helped with the sheep. Almost immediately I watched as Jean and Claude stood up as driven by a spring. - I heard that both exclaimed. - that's it – Jean exclaimed. (I watched at one and to other and hearings attentively the conversation) Claude added - Pierre, when you deliver the leather to the tanneries of Roman sur Isere? Pierre seen at them with much curiosity indicate: - You known that it’s within a few days – Pierre, without understanding anything of the question continued - it will be in one week, when there meets all the leather of the sheep's breeders of the region of Privas and the truck loaded with pieces of wood going up the hill deliver the wood to the shoe factory from Roman sur Isere. I noticed that their faces illuminated - that is !!! Exclaimed - Jean and Claude at once and continued Claude-. Here is the solution to cross the bridge. The solution to what? - there asking Pierre, who seemed not to understand anything about what his friends were speaking. (Meanwhile I followed the dialog with much attention) Sitting down again and trying to speak calmly Claude continued : Listen Pierre, can you see those children? They are orphans coming from Paris and need reach Switzerland and Jean and I have decided to helping, them. You are crazy !!! They have gone insane, !! - Exclaimed Pierre The militia and the Police of German Security looking in all this area for Jewish children who escaped of Paris, have the list of each of them. To which Claude answered - the Germans will not have these children, Jews or not, ourselves will assist them and the only way they can pass this bridge is assisting them! listen at it !! There are three kids and a dog of the German Railway Police How could this? And the leather and wood for the shoes are not only mine,- Pierre added ther’re other owners, who quite possibly will not wish to contribute since it would be enormous exposure definitely not !!!. ( ignoring their comments they continued and I am sitting in a corner of the table I continued listening) Listen Pierre, Claude said.- I I understand that always by this time you and the cousin Albert bring the old truck loaded with hides for delivery to the tanneries in Roman sur Isere. -Just - answered Pierre-- this year the Albert, truck brought the leather of Guillaume and the brothers Goudon and I believe that none of them would participate in a similar madness. Right - said Jean- should be asked.- and added : Your cousin Albert, has a son in the resistance, also the Goudon. And continued - that is to say that they’re people who believe in the principles of France, all we born here in this region that has traditionally been more than either region of France, land of asylum and refuge. I’m sure that if you explain the situation to them, they will
, cooperate with us to pass the children to the other side of the bridge and take them to a safe place. Listen - affirmed Pierre - Today on returning home, I will speak with the cousin Albert and the Goudon I will return in a few days and I would say their answer. He added: - In the meantime, be careful since the militia is after every Jew and especially behind all those who assists or hide a Jew either an adult or a child and here you have three. I will come back as soon as possible with the answer of the cousin Albert. Pierre be careful, and we shall wait your return. Claude says. Pierre took his bike and waving his hand left in direction of the valley . can you see?
pointed out Jean- Speaking to Claude with a little air of triumph, Pierre already concerned for the safety of children I’m sure it will be able to convince cousin Albert and the Goudon to helping the children to cross the bridge and lead them to Romans sur Isere. I realized that during all the time of his conversation with Pierre, Jean and Claude had forgotten my presence in the corner of the table, and approaching them, I told : - Thank you for assist us, hopefully could cross the bridge over the Rodano and thus continue our trip to Switzerland. They just watched at me and smiling Claude says : - You are going to see boy, that would go through to the other side toward Romans sur Isere After that, I came out of the cabin and I sat on the wall below which passed the water of the river. The noise of the water falling down on the rocks it produced a feeling peace inside my heart, I felt the hope of which prompt would be walk across the border with Switzerland. Everything there was a complete calmness, there starting to get dark already Ivette that had woken up, together with Jacques and Prince they came to sit down in the wall on the river. You could hear the cicadas and soon the fireflies appeared with its flashing lights for the joy of Jacques and
Ivette.
