So! I have left Pencey Prep. I walked to station and got a train that was heading for New York. I really enjoy train journeys and I wasn’t on that long when a got on. Apparently she is the mother of Ernest Morrow, someone from I know from Pencey.

Mrs Morrow must of seen the sticker on my luggage and started this conversation about school. To be honest I don’t really like her son but I couldn’t really say . So I pretended. I told the Mrs Morrow that my name was Rudolph Schmidt- the school caretaker.

Mrs Morrow had some really nice jewellery, she was pretty attractive. I told her that me and some of the boys wanted her son to be class president. I really don’t like Ernest I really don’t.

I sort of invited her for drink, I told her that I could get served because I had a million grey hairs, but she said the bar would be closed so I offered her a cigarettes.

Mrs Morrow asked me why I was going home before the end of term and I lied again. I told her that I was going home early because I had an operation on a small brain tumour. She was horrified, but then I calmed down and told her it wasn’t that serious.

We were just about to say our goodbyes when she invited me to spend the summer with her and her beloved Ernest. This is the last thing I wanted to do.
