One afternoon, Henry, an old man from America, telephoned from the airport to tell me that he had arrived.
He was going to stay with me. I was still at the office at the time, but I had prepared for his coming. After
explaining where my new house was, I told him where I had left the key. As I was likely to be home rather late,
I asked him to go into the kitchen and help himself to food and drink.
Two hours later my friend telephoned me from the flat. At the moment, he said, he was listening to some of
my records after having just had a truly wonderful meal. He had cooked two eggs and had helped himself to
some cold chicken from the refrigerator.
Now, he said, he was drinking a glass of orange juice and he hoped I would join him. When I asked him if
he had reached the flat without difficulty he answered that he had not been able to find the key, but luckily the
living-room window just by the apple tree had been left open and he had climbed in. I listened to all this in
surprise. There is no apple tree in front of my living-room, but there is one in front of my neighbour's!
