3791. At such times Harriet, or Clara,
or even both of them would rush to sooth her and swear their devotion to her. They
would apologize to her and not let her go until she would relent and
return to the dinner table. In truth Harriet and her sister Clara deeply loved
and respected Frieda, simply because she said the things they thought and felt
themselves, but were too cowardly to utter, especially in front of their
husbands, no matter how indulgent those husbands may have seemed on occasion.
3792. The fourth woman at the
birthday party was Harriet's nearest neighbor during the summer months. She and
her husband rented a cottage on Harriet's husband's estate just for the month
of August. Her name was Anya. Anya was a tremendous flirt with everyone except
her husband, whom she treated with slavish devotion.
3793. To see Anya in action among
a crowd of her many admires one would have thought she was a woman of multiple
affairs and liaisons, but the opposite was the case. She was prudish in the
extreme, and became profoundly indignant if one of the suggestive remarks she
was fond of making to some young man resulted in any advances towards her
person.
3794. You might guess that Anya
was attractive in the extreme, and you would be correct. Her face was round and
she had a slight double chin. Her hair was naturally jet black and somewhat curly.
Her most prominent feature were her eyes, one of which was slightly slanted,
and a little narrower than the other giving her a cat-like somewhat Tartar
look.
