taking his horse out of the stable; Shevket left the kitchen and spied on him

from the peephole。”

“What  of  it!”  Shevket  said;  waving  his  hand  in  the  air。  “Mother  spied  on

him from the hole in the closet。”

“Hayriye;”  I  said。  “Fry  some  bread  in  a  little  butter  and  serve  it  to  them

with marzipan and sugar。”

Orhan jumped up and down with joy though Shevket was silent。 But as I

walked  back  upstairs;  they  both  caught  up  to  me;  screaming;  pushing  and

shoving  by  me  excitedly。  “Be  slow;  slow  down;”  I  said  with  a  laugh。  “You

rascals。” I patted them on their delicate backs。

How wonderful it is to be home with children as evening approaches! My

father had quietly given himself over to a book。

“Your guest has departed;” I said。 “I hope he didn’t trouble you much?”

“On the contrary;” he said。 “He entertained me。 He’s as respectful as ever

kissed them on the backs of their necks and their hair; I pressed them to my

bosom and felt their weight on my breasts。

“Ahhh;”  I  said。  “Your  hair  stinks。  I’m  going  to  send  you  to  the  baths

tomorrow with Hayriye。”

“I don’t want to go to the baths with Hayriye anymore;” Shevket said。

“Why? Are you too grown…up?” I said。

“Mother; why did you wear your fine purple blouse?” Shevket said。

I went into the other room and removed my purple blouse。 I pulled on the

faded green one that I usually wear。 As I was changing; I felt cold and shivered;

but  I  could  sense  that  my  skin  was  aflame;  my  body  vibrant  and  alive。  I’d

rubbed a bit of rouge onto my cheeks; which probably smudged while I was
