last leaf 2//////
Storyboard Text
- They tiptoed into the room. Johnsy was sleeping. Sue drewthe curtains together and they went to the next room. She peepedout through the window. There was only one leaf on the creeper.It was raining heavily and an icy-cold wind was blowing. It seemedas though the leafwould fall any minutenow. Behrman did notsay a word. He wentback to his room.
- Johnsy woke upnext morning. In a feeble voice she askedSue to draw thecurtains. Sue wasnervous. She drewback the curtains very reluctantly.
- “Oh!”“Look,there is still one leafon the creeper. It looks quite green and healthy. In spite of the stormand the fierce winds, it didn’t fall.”“I heard the wind last night,” . “I thought it wouldhave fallen. It will surely fall today. Then I’ll die.”
- “You have to live foryour friends. What would happen to me if you die?”
- Johnsy smiled weakly and closed her eyes. After every hour orso she would look out of the window and find the leaf still there.It seemed to be clinging to the creeper.In the evening, there was another storm but the leaf did notfall. Johnsy lay for a long time looking at the leaf. Then she calledout to Sue.
- “I have been a bad girl. You have looked after me so lovingly and I have not cooperated with you. I have been depressed and gloomy. The last leaf has shown me how wicked I have been. I have realised that it is a sin to want to die.”
