- OUTSIDE THE GLASS DOORS
- To-night ... Mr. Pettitt: "Sister!"
- At the risk of appearing unnatural, I said, "Not much."
- I turned away with a great shrinking.
- I regretted it all the evening.
- I left her and went into the bunk.
- She looked at me uncertainly: "Aren't you coming?"
- II
- INSIDE THE GLASS DOORS
- I felt a glow of pride in the hill, thinking:
- I had walked out of the fog as one walks out of the sea on to a beach!
- And I: "I do, I do, I do...."
- I was excited by the strange silent fog.
- I walked till I was warm, and then I walked for happiness.
- Sister said of a patient to-day, "He was a funny man."
- I said, "Let me, Sister!"
- She said, "Why?"
- And I: "Because I think I can do it better."
- I dined with Irene last night after the hospital.
- I got him "Lord Jim."...
- He said to me last night, "Nurse, I'm going out to-morrow."
- I leant across the table to listen to him.
- Again and again I realize, "A nation in arms...."
- I dropped the blind again and took up my towels and left him.
- I paused, struck by his accusing eyes.
- I was dumbfounded. Had I been "nice"? And now different....
- It isn't my part as a V.A.D. to cry, "Who wants you to?"
- I am alive, delirious, but not happy.
- Then, slowly: "How ... permanently am I in disgrace?"
- And she: "Not at all ... now."
- A Sister has an "intimate life."
- I don't understand, but I am not specialized.
- And she: "You couldn't go through it and come out as you are...."
- I think from time to time, "Is he alive?"
- I don't know how to get home up the long hill....
- III
- Sister said, laughing, to Smiff the other day, "Your leg is mine."
- I went on sewing my splint.
- I praised his girl to Pinker, and praised Pinker to myself.
- Pinker said, "Makes the po'r ole lady 'appy!"
- I said to Sister, "Is No. 24 really ill?"
- I only had an inch or two to finish and I spun it out, very happy.
- I rose and went to his bed.
- I went and asked her.
- I had a day on the river yesterday.
- I wonder what the sergeant was like before he won his D.C.M....
- I went to Evan.
- I ran back to tell him so quickly--but one can't run back into the past.
- Rees told me, "She turned her head away when she saw me arm."
