Sinister: That Sugar Baby O'Mine

[Pauline L. Shivers]

Hello sinister peeps,
I'm so frustrated; you see the weekend approaches
really fast and we have this family reunion where my
Big Aunt Myrtles will be presiding.
And you will think: so who is this aunt Myrtles?
Oh, Big Aunt Myrtles, the turtle of my childhood, she
is the most fearsome woman in Europe...
Big Aunt Myrtles was my grandfather's younger sister.
You remember my grandfather, the disinherited love
fool. Yes, that's the one.
So auntie inherited all great grandfather's fortune.
She is disgustingly rich. Everything great grandfather
owned should have been gone to my grandfather. But
when he chose love over wealth, everything went to
aunt Myrtles. But, when great-grandfather died she
wrote to my father telling him that she wanted this
family to be united again, and that we should forget
all about these old stories, etc. My father agreed.
And that's how we found ourselves back in Prague 10
years ago.
Big Aunt gave my dad the house we live in Prague and
arranged so we could have a very generous annual
allowance. But she didn't let us have the cottage in
the countryside, we're just allowed to go there
whenever we want, which is Ok, I guess...
Aunt has this chateaux in France where she spends her
summer vacation socialising with people of her class,
slagging others off, organising small trips to play at
the Casino in Monaco, etc.
I remember when I first met her. We went to her house
in Prague, and a butler (not a monkey one, just a
plain english butler) opened the door to us and
announced us to auntie. She accepted us in this huge
room, which ceiling was almost 6 metres high,. It was
perfect in a frozen way, a scary, magnificent museum
with high quality and rare objects. Everything - the
tappiseri gombléne, the bronze clock on the marble
shelf of the fireplace, the George Lacompte armchairs,
in a Ludovique IV style, covered with peanut green
velvet, the little marble tables with the golden legs,
the Van Gogh, gaugin, and Renoir paintings - all
gathered together to praise Aunt Myrtles' impecable
taste.
Aunt has this son Theodor whom she wants to marry with
this girl whose family own a chateaux in France as
well. Poor Theodor. We used to call her a turtle
behind her back. She looks like one. With these
bronchocele big eyes and the longest neck ever. it
looks short, but that's deceiving. When she gets mad
she stretches it out and voila! Disgusting!!
She wants to marry me too with this guy who comes from
an aristocratic family in Tuscany. I guess that's one
of the issues to be discussed in the family reunion
thing that takes place at the countryside house of
ours! My God! What have I done to deserve this? And my
poor, spineless dad, thinks that we are eternally
indebted to Aunt Myrtles, and that we should be kind
to her and obey to every little whim of hers.
But I'm not going to marry this italian dandy!! I
swear I won't!! never! I do like auntie's schauffer
you see! Maybe I'm a love fool loser like my granpaps.
who knows.................
bye xx

She's that aristocratic slag
Who lives and reigns in Prague
