The main conflict in the story is less of a conflict between characters, and more the suspense created through Johnsy’s declaration that as soon as the last leaf falls off of the vine, she too will fallaway, fade, and die. The short story “The Last Leaf” by O. Henry is narrated in the third-person by an anonymous narrator who only functions as an observer. Throughout most of the story, the narrator focuses on Sue and her reactions to what happens around her. The central theme of the story is the friendship between Sue and Johnsy. They both love their art and share similar passions. When Johnsy falls ill, Sue manages all her care. She prepares her food and arranges for her treatment.

it also informs us that johnsy was struck by the disease and became extremely ill. Sue tells Mr. Behrman about johnsy and how when the last leaf falls, she will die. Mr. Behrman thinks this is ridiculous too. The climax in this story occurs when there is only one leaf left on the vine. The climatic expectation is that once this leaf has fallen, johnsy will die. Johnsy will survives, however, because when she looks out of her window, she notices the leaf still clinging to the vine and this inspires her to live. The doctor arrived at their art studio, he said that johnsy’s condition is improving at a very good rate. however, the doctor said that Behrman also having difficulty because of pneumonia. He went on to Behrman studio and tried to treat him. The next day, the doctor come once again and said to sue “shes out of danger. In the last leaf, johnsy seems to be dying of pneumonia when the story begins, but it is Mr. Behrman who dies in the end, while johnsy survives.
