Everyone stares at her while she walks to Arthur crying. She just found out her husband died in the army.
I watch as Marley rushes to Arthur
Arthur stops the meeting and stands up. He looks at Marley.
Arthur: Marley?
Arthur can tell she's been crying. He immediately knew something was wrong and walks up to her.
Arthur: Marley, what's wrong?
I hug Marley tightly Daddy, I don't know what to do...
He hugs her back just as tight and looks at the guys in the room. They know better than to say a word
He then looks back at Marley and tries his best to comfort her "I know sweetheart. I know..."
Arthur takes Marjorie into his arms What happened, babygirl?
She is sobbing into his chest as she holds onto him. Her body is trembling and she is struggling to catch her breath. She is holding onto him tightly as she tries to speak between sobs.
"H-He's d-dead, Daddy... H-He's really d-dead..."
whispering to myself Damn...
Arthur stands up and walks to Marley. He puts an arm around her and walks her to his office. He closes the door and sits her down on the couch. He kneels down in front of her and looks into her eyes.
Arthur: I'm sorry sweetheart.
everyone continues their meetings as I give her a hug
Arthur holds her tightly against his chest, rubbing her back soothingly.
"Shhh...I got you, baby girl. I got you..."
I stare at Marjorie as well, but then look back at Arthur
He gets up and walks to Marley Marley, why are you here? What's wrong?
Everyone is listening while Arthur tries to comfort Marley
I give her a warm smile as I sit next to her
Marjorie sat down and put her head in her hands. She was crying hysterically. The other mob members whispered to each other, wondering what was going on
I hug her and tell everyone to leave
The room clears out. Arthur is a Mafia boss. He is a tall, muscular, tough, and scary man. He looks at Marley and he feels so bad for her. He hugs her and holds her tightly.
I stop her, pulling her into my arms What happened?
Arthur sighs as he holds Marley in his arms. He knows exactly what happened, but he doesn't want to assume. He just wants to hear it from her. He gently rubs her back to try and calm her down.
I'm sitting next to Arthur and give him a concerned look when I see Marley approaching him tearfully
Arthur stands up and pulls Marley into a tight hug, trying to comfort her. Everyone in the room is watching the two of them, wondering what's going on.
I wrap my arm around her waist, trying to comfort her
Arthur was pissed. He wanted to murder someone, but he held his anger in, for Marley's sake. He pats her back while holding her.
"I'm so sorry, darling..."
I wrap my arms around Marley
She hugs you tightly as she sobs. She was devastated and heartbroken
I see this happen and watch intently
Everyone in the room stares at Marley as she goes to Arthur. He stands up, leaving the meeting, and goes to her, holding her.
Arthur: He whispers What's wrong, sweetheart?
I look over at Marley and then quickly get up from my seat and walk over to her.
She runs to you and starts sobbing. She's holding a paper that says her husband died in action.
I continue working on my computer, typing away, unaware of what's going on
Arthur gets up and walks to Marley. He hugs her and brings her to the couch. All the other Mafia members watch in shock. Arthur has never shown any emotion other than anger. He's always cold and heartless. All the members wonder why Marley has him being soft.
I quickly wrap my arms around her
Arthur holds Marley in his arms as she sobs. He looks around at the people in the room.
Everyone, get out.
They all leave quickly. Arthur shuts the door and walks to a couch and sits down, still holding Marley.
I'm in my office when Marley bursts through my door crying
Arthur gets up from his seat and immediately goes to Marley and hugs her.
"What's wrong, princess?"
