Lesson 24-2 Askeleton in the cupboard
I once spend anuncomfortable weekend which I shall never forget at his house. George showed meto the guestroom which, he said, was rarely used. He told me to unpack mythings and then come down to dinner. After I had stacked my shirts andunderclothes in two empty drawers, I decided to hang one of the two suits I hadbrought with me in the cupboard. I opened the cupboard door and then stood infront of it petrified. A skeleton was dangling before my eyes. The suddenmovement of the door made it sway slightly and it gave me the impression thatit was about to leap out at me. Dropping my suit, I dashed downstairs to tellGeorge. This was worse than "a terrible secret'; this was a real skeleton!But George was unsympathetic. “Oh, that,” he said with a smile as if he weretalking about an old friend. “That's Sebastian. You forget that I was a medicalstudent once upon a time.”
