Then disaster. Mr Closti bought the lumber yard. Mrs Mattinelli ran the store. She came in the morning when the baking was finished. A girl named Anna stayed at the bakery. Mr Closti went to the lumber yard. He came back to do the business, but Mrs Mattinelli gave me my work. Why did she not stay in the bakery? Mr Closti told me she knew about stocks and counting and money. One day Mrs Gravetti came into the store with her daughters. They came and talked with me – laughing, bouncing, asking me things. Mrs Mattinelli gave me a hard look, then she sent me to find something in the storeroom. She gave me a talk about proper behaviour. Mrs Mattinelli knew about everything.
