P. S I warned you that the Box 5 was kept empty for off-limits every musical performances.
I will truly faithful to you
Your Obedient Servant,
O. G

" Well then, you will be the one to find out who is that Opera Ghost was. Bring it to me. " Fermina commanded him
" But how about the performance tonight? Without Signore Giudicelli, who will gonna replaced him? " Anita asked, confused
" Maybe Monsieur Christian Daae can sing it, Madame. " Monsieur Vera said
And Christian turns around at the center , in a silent mood
" What, a chorus boy? You gonna be kidding me. " Fermina asked
" He has been well taught from a great teacher. " Monsieur Vera said
" Who? " Anita asked
" I don't know her name, Madame. " Christian replied
" Let him sing for you, Madames. He has an excellent talent. " Monsieur Vera said
The two ladies looked each other, glancing. After a moment...
" Are you sure about this? Alright, show what you made of. " Fermina told him
