It was Christmas morning and she felt sorry. "Mr. Harriet, I'm so sorry to bother you today. I think you
want a rest at Christmas like anybody else. "
"Please don't worry about that," I said. "Which one is it this time?"
"It's not one of the dogs. It's. . . Debbie. "
"Debbie? She's at your house now?"
"Yes… but there's something wrong. Please come quickly. "
When I went to Mrs. Ainsworth's home, Debbie was there all right, but this time everything was
different. She wasn't sitting in her usual place; she was lying down quietly on her side, and close to her lay
a little black kitten.
I examined Debbie carefully while Mrs. Ainsworth looked at me. Her voice seemed to come from
afar. "Is she ill, Mr. Harriet?"
"Yes… yes, I'm afraid so. She is very ill. " I stood up. "There's really nothing you can do. I'm sorry. "
Mrs. Ainsworth reached out and touched black Debbie's body. "Isn't it strange? She was dying and
she brought her kitten here. And on Christmas Day. "
Tears went down Mrs. Ainsworth's face and she was bright-eyed as she looked at me. "I've never had
a cat before." She said.
I smiled. "Well, it looks as though you've got one now. "
"Debbie would be pleased. " She said.
I nodded. "Yes, she would. . . It was just a year ago that she came here, wasn't it?"
"That's right. " She looked at the kitten kindly. "The best Christmas present I have ever had. "

Mrs. Baker’s sister was ill. She had someone to look after her from Monday to Friday, but not at the weekend, so every Friday evening Mrs. Baker used to go off to spend the weekend with her at her home in a neighbouring town. But as Mr. Baker could not cook, she had arranged (安排) for his sister to come over and spend the weekend looking after him at their home. This meant that Mr. Baker had busy time when he came home from work on Friday evenings. First he had to drive home from the railway station. Then he had to drive his wife to the station to catch her train. And then he had to wait until his sister’s train arrived, so as to take her to his house.
Of course, on Sunday evening he had to drive his sister to the station to catch her train back home, and then wait for his wife’s train, so as to bring her home.
One Sunday evening, he had seen his sister off on her train and was waiting for his wife’s arrival when a porter ( 搬运工 ), who had often seen him at the station, came over and spoke to him, “You are having a lot of fun,” he said, “ But one day one of those women is going to catch you with the other, and then you will be in real trouble!”
