| We walked in so quietly that the nurse at the desk didn"t even lift her eyes from the book. Mum pointed at a big chair by the door and I knew she wanted me to sit down. While I watched, mouth open in surprise, Mum took off her hat and coat and gave them to me to hold. She walked quietly to the small room by the lift (电梯) and took out a wet mop (拖把). She pushed the mop past the desk and as the nurse looked up, Mum nodded and said, "Very dirty floors." "Yes. I"m glad they"ve finally decided to clean them," the nurse answered. She looked at Mum strangely and said,"But aren"t you working late?" Mum just pushed harder, each swipe of the mop taking her farther and farther down the hall. I watched until she was out of sight and the nurse had turned back to writing in the big book. After a long time Mum came back. Her eyes were shining. She quickly put the mop back and took my hand. As we turned to go out of the door, Mum nodded politely to the nurse and said, "Thank you." Outside, Mum told me, "Dagma is fine. No fever." "You see her, Mum?" "Of course. I told her about the hospital rules, and she will not expect us until tomorrow. Dad will stop worrying as well. It"s a fine hospital. But the floors! A mop is no good.

| A strange woman comes to my door one day in early March. In this area we often have people selling things door-to-door, but she doesn"t look like a professional saleswoman. She just smiles and gives a card to me:"Amy Turner." I hold the card and look at her, waiting for an explanation. "I"ll paint any animal in your own home," Amy Turner says. "Wouldn"t you like a picture of your loved one? I"ve had experience of dogs, cats, parrots, prize bulls…" "I don"t have any animals," I say as we look past each other. She must be wishing some little cat or dog would come down the hall. It is the first chance I"ve had to breathe the air outside. In this spring morning when you wake up, you will find winter is gone. "Why are you still in your dressing gown?" She asks. "It"s nearly lunchtime. Are you ill?" "I"m fine," I lie. I"m not going to tell a stranger I"ve just been sick in the toilet (厕所) upstairs. I was still sticking my fingers down my throat if the doorbell hadn"t rung. But now I"m not sure what to do next. She is still standing there. She doesn"t seem to be leaving. "I"m hungry," she says and I smile politely, nodding my head before saying goodbye. "No," she puts her foot in the door. "I"m really hungry. I"ve had nothing to eat for two days and no one has any animal for me to paint. I need some food or I"ll fall down, right here on your doorstep." I stand to one side and let her in. | ||||||||||||||||||
