Aunt Jane is quite impressed with the small house Jack and Jill live in with all modem amenities. She is amazed at their acquisitions such as piano, refrigerator, radio and furniture. Aunt Jane had given only two hundred pounds as a wedding gift to Jack.

But she finds that they own a house and all modem amenities. She is unable to conclude how on earth they accomplished all those comfort when Jack earned so little as six pounds. She is mdely shocked to know the house, fridge, furniture, car, piano and even the radio are all bought on EMIs. They have not made a complete payment for a single item. It sounded absurd that Jack is earning only six pounds a week. But he is paying seven pounds eight and eight pence towards EMI.

The rest is borrowed every month from Thrift and providence Trust corporation. It is so disgusting for Aunt Jane. She doesn’t want to sit on the furniture which belongs to someone else. She gives them a gift of 10 pounds with a sharp advice that they should try to pay full amount for atleast one item and call it theirs. Jane refuses to travel in Jack’s EMI car for which he has paid for steering wheel and one tyre only. He accompanies Aunt Jane to the bus stop. Before he returns, Jill sends the cheque to Dr. Martin through her nlxrse. Jack is not happy. Jack says doctors never expect to be paid quickly. But she tells him that the baby will be their’s with just one more payment.
