Strawberries
Hector Johnson was a silent man of perhaps thirty-eight. Many years ago he was a sheepman, but then he got A22 tired of his sheep, sold his ranch and moved to Santa Rosa. His only wish was to grow strawberries. When his strawberries began to ripen, Hector bought a heavy whip as all children of Santa Rosa watched the berries growing and tried to get into his garden. One day Hector saw the neighbour's children eating his strawberries. He took his whip and went into the garden. The children started to run and soon disappeared. He turned round and stood A23 motionless. He saw Panchitta, a young and beautiful girl, who was his neighbour's eldest daughter. She put a big red strawberry into her mouth. Then she giggled and slowly left his garden. He was shocked so much that he did not say a word. After this a strange thing happened A24 to Hector. For the first time in his life he fell in love with a young and beautiful girl. He bought a carriage and a fine horse and every day he drove out with the girl. He began to wear nice clothes, and he took her to dances and parties. No man ever tried so A25 hard to be young as he did. One day when he came up to Panchitta's house a bit earlier than he promised, he heard the children laughing. He looked into the open door and saw Panchitta who was dressed in man's clothes. She was A26 amusingher brothers and sisters. He at once understood whom she was acting, and quietly left. Twenty minutes later Panchitta came to his gate. She could not understand why he had not come. Then Hector came out. He was A27 wearing his old clothes and he did not A28 carehow old he looked. "Go home and play some more theatricals!" he said to the girl. But Panchitta did not move. And in her eyes he read that she would never leave him even if he used a whip.
