No Name (Socks CCLXXIII)

Wilhiem, Elebeth, Margreth, and the child, Katherina, lived in the house.
Margreth stayed in another room most of the time, and when the clock did see her, she was crying. When no one else was in the room, Margreth would pick up one of the pictures , and say, “Oh, Konrad.”
That was about the time that the clock realized that she had no name. She wanted a name. She would get a name.
Margreth stopped playing das klavier, and soon stayed in bed. The clock could see the bed through the doorway.
Soon, Margreth only smiled when Katherina giggled.
