Explanation:
The Last Leaf by O. Henry portrays a story of two sisters and a painter. Johnsy and Sue were two sisters and Behrman was a painter who used to live downstairs of the same flat. He loved two sisters like his daughters.
There was an ivy creeper of their residence. One day Johnsy fell ill and she develops a fancy that when the last leaf from the tree will fall, she will die. One day Johnsy shared her fancy with Behrman and he assured to help the little girl.
At the end of the story we see, on the night of heavy snowfall Behrman painted a leaf on the wall and in that way he has prevented the fall of the last leaf. Her will to live her life returned but Behrman, who painted the leaf for her caught pneumonia and passed away. This justifies that Behrman was a blessing for Johnsy in disguise.
Answer:
Sue got a small painting project in which she was to paint an old miner. She pondered for a while whom to make the role model and she thought of Mr Behrman. Sue called Behrman to her flat as she wanted him to be her role model so that she could pint the picture of an old miner. When he came, he told him about Johnsy’s illness and the fact that Johnsy believed that she would die when the last leaf from the Ivy creeper would fall.
When Behrman came to her flat, he saw the pitiable condition of Johnsy. He didn’t say a word and went back to his room. He painted a leaf similar to the Ivy creeper’s leaf and took a ladder and tied that leaf to the creeper while Johnsy was sleeping. When Johnsy noticed that the leaf has not fallen in the harsh winds, she realised that it was a sin to want to die. From then onwards, she hoped to get well which eventually saved her life.
Hence, we can say that Behrman’s visit to Sue’s flat was a blessing in disguise for Johnsy.
