AUREL LEAV employer and perhaps the future employee Mother has taken the part of the employer a countless number of times and with what results? Sophie entered into the domestic bliss of our household as a result of one of these interviews She had worked at some of the finest and largest homes in Cleveland and Mother had received several adequate references Within a month of her arrival we conjectured that Sophie was a psychopathic case Every Friday and Monday mornings the mornings after her days off she would relate fanciful stories Once a week she went to a well known doctor in Cleveland as she had a skin disease which irritated her and caused her to be moody so much of the time She told us that this doctor had promised to marry her Eventually Sophie s hallucinations were aggravated by a stream of following events She claimed that men followed her when she Went out for what reason no one knows Shortly after hearing this story Mother saw in the newspaper an advertisement for a bodyguard I was our phone number that was given She questioned Sophie but it was too late the phone had already started its clamorous insistence Mother somewhat fearing her idxosyncrasies called Sophie s doctor to question him about her He assured Mother that she was not a dangerous psychopathic case but that she needed to be carefully watched Even more astounding was the news that she was contemplating writing an autobiography Some time later a very troubled woman phoned asking Mother if a Sophie Boyen lived at our address She was answering an her book and was at the time she telephoned waiting for Sophie at the Statler Hotel We were impressed by the seriousness of the situation when Sophie showed us a newspaper article yellowed with age written about herself There was furthermore a picture of her holding a black Persian cat on her lap No one could have had a more valued prize than Sophie s art cle The context of it was to the effect that Sophie was an Austrian countess The clipping ended with these words when Sophie was asked by the reporter what her family name was I am t gonna e Sophie s departure was marked by the entrance of a gay interlude Peggy by name Peggy was frivolous boy crazy and the glamour girl type so she thought Al and Jimmy were her life and she lived them all day long Instead of tending to her housework she spent her time con triving methods to keep Al from knowing about Jimmy and v1ce versa She expected to go out every night and to come in at three or four in the morning On the nights spent at home most of her time would be taken up telephoning or entertaining her friends of both sexes in the kitchen or sometimes in the recreation room The latter pleased my sister because it afforded her an opportunity to be Sherlock Holmes the second Towards the end of her rampageous stay with us Spring reared its head 481 L E s ' , ' . t advertisement inserted by Sophie for someone to collaborate with her on t ll.
