Tales of Happy Valley
Chapter 20: Frieda


Even while Giles was internally puzzling over how he might carry off the daunting task of finding a wife while living with his cousin's family, the solution to his conundrum was merrily padding up the stairs in the form of Miss Frieda Baybrace.

After the baby was born, Frieda had gone down to relax in the spa. It seemed that the birth was harder on her than it had been on Barry's mother! But when she heard that a distant relative was visiting, she wanted to meet him and rushed upstairs to accomplish this goal.


Barry Meets Frieda

Now Frieda has many interesting personality quirks, but shyness is nowhere among them. It's not that she intentionally greeted Giles clad in nought but a dripping wet thong and the rare multichromatic censor snake; it's just that it never occurred to her that perhaps she ought to don some clothing before meeting Greg's out-of-town cousin.

So we shouldn't be surprised that his first sight of Frieda had quite an impact on Giles. It would not be at all inaccurate to say that when he encountered her sparkling eyes and winning smile (and perhaps other charms), his brains turned to oatmeal in less time than it takes to tell about it.
