Alfred
Mr. Carl
Mrs. HigginsAlfred's mother came in with a friendly smile on her face and put out her hand to Mr. Carl and said politely. "I'm Mrs. Higgins, Alfred's mother."
Mr. Carl was surprised at the way she came in. She was very calm, quiet and friendly.
"Is Alfred in trouble?" Mrs. Higgins asked.
"He is. He has been taking things from the store, little things like toothpaste and lipsticks. Things he can easily sell."
Mrs. Higgins looked at her son and said sadly."Is it so? Alfred."
"Yes."
"Why have you been doing it?" she asked.
"I've been spending money I believe."
"On what?"
"Going around with the boys, I guess." said Alfred.
Mrs. Higgins put out her hand and touched Mr. Carl's arm with great gentleness as if she knew just how he felt. She spoke as if she did not want to cause him any more trouble. She said, "If you will just listen to me before doing anything." Her voice was cool and she turned her head away as if she had said too much already. Then she looked again at Mr. Carl with a pleasant smile and asked, "What do you want to do, Mr. Carl?"
