- PART ONE
- I was impatient. “Then what’s the answer?”
- I insisted: “It isn’t idle curiosity on my part.”
- II
- I snapped: “How do you know he is?”
- III
- I said: “Poor Eva! For of course you are talking about Eva?”
- I drawled: “I think he sounds rather attractive.”
- I said: “Shall we stop this? I’m sick and tired of talking about Eva.”
- I wanted to know, I said, what it all came down to.
- IV
- I hurried home to be ready when Molly Underhill should call for me.
- I laughed. “Eva’s husband, I daresay you mean me to infer?”
- I pinned her down. “She’s changed, then?”
- PART TWO
- I said: “It seems we’ve got to get it over with.”
- I enquired: “Do you think they have a chance on earth?”
- II
- I laughed at her. “Had you no remorse at leaving him in a caldron?”
- I interrupted: “Are you putting this into his mouth?”
- I broke in with “What is Spence driving at?”
- I almost moaned: “Oh, Eva! Eva!”
- PART THREE
- II
- I said: “She asked me here. She said she simply had to speak to me.”
- I suggested: “You can’t get around it that she is Eva Litchfield.”
- III
- I was so weary that the chair seemed not to touch my body.
- IV
- I said: “Stop that! You’re raving.”
- I asked her what it was that she could not bear.
- I sat staring, dumbly.
- I looked at her. There was no obvious retort.
- PART FOUR
- I said to him, fiercely: “Can’t you let her alone? She’d forgotten it.”
- II
- III
- I scoffed: “That has a familiar ring!”
- I objected that this was clearly in his own province.
- I explained that she respected his judgment of her work.
- I heard the reedy voice over the wire: “Miss Litchfield in?”
- IV
- I advanced tentatively: “You’ve given up the idea?”
- I said: “It is so to me, also.”
- PART FIVE
- I faltered: “I’m very sorry I asked.”
- II
- I asked if he had ever felt that he understood Eva.
- I said: “She didn’t need a man around every day.”
