"
Oh
,
do
n't
cry
Mrs.
Grubach
,
"
said
K.
,
looking
out
the
window
,
he
was
thinking
only
of
Miss
Bürstner
and
how
she
was
accepting
an
unknown
girl
into
her
room
.
"
Now
do
n't
cry
,
"
he
said
again
as
he
turned
his
look
back
into
the
room
where
Mrs.
Grubach
was
still
crying
.
"
I
meant
no
harm
either
when
I
said
that
.
It
was
simply
a
misunderstanding
between
us
.
That
can
happen
even
between
old
friends
sometimes
.
"
Mrs.
Grubach
pulled
her
apron
down
to
below
her
eyes
to
see
whether
K.
really
was
attempting
a
reconciliation
.
"
Well
,
yes
,
that
's
how
it
is
,
"
said
K.
,
and
as
Mrs.
152
Grubach
's
behaviour
indicated
that
the
captain
had
said
nothing
he
dared
to
add
,
"
Do
you
really
think
,
then
,
that
I
'd
want
to
make
an
enemy
of
you
for
the
sake
of
a
girl
we
hardly
know
?
"
"
Yes
,
you
're
quite
right
,
Mr.
K.
,
"
said
Mrs.
Grubach
,
and
then
,
to
her
misfortune
,
as
soon
as
she
felt
just
a
little
freer
to
speak
,
she
added
something
rather
inept
.
"
I
kept
asking
myself
why
it
was
that
Mr.
K.
took
such
an
interest
in
Miss
Bürstner
.
Why
does
he
quarrel
with
me
over
her
when
he
knows
that
any
cross
word
from
him
and
I
ca
n't
sleep
that
night
?
And
I
did
n't
say
anything
about
Miss
Bürstner
that
I
had
n't
seen
with
my
own
eyes
.
"
K.
said
nothing
in
reply
,
he
should
have
chased
her
from
the
room
as
soon
as
she
had
opened
her
mouth
,
and
he
did
n't
want
to
do
that
.
He
contented
himself
with
merely
drinking
his
coffee
and
letting
Mrs.
Grubach
feel
that
she
was
superfluous
.
Outside
,
the
dragging
steps
of
Miss
Montag
could
still
be
heard
as
she
went
from
one
side
of
the
hallway
to
the
other
.
"
Do
you
hear
that
?
"
asked
K.
pointing
his
hand
at
the
door
.
"
Yes
,
"
said
Mrs.
Grubach
with
a
sigh
,
"
I
wanted
to
give
her
some
help
and
I
wanted
the
maid
to
help
her
too
but
she
's
stubborn
,
she
wants
to
move
everything
in
herself
.
I
wonder
at
Miss
Bürstner
.
I
often
feel
it
's
a
burden
for
me
to
have
Miss
Montag
as
a
tenant
but
Miss
Bürstner
accepts
her
into
her
room
with
herself
.
"
"
There
's
nothing
there
for
you
to
worry
about
"
said
K.
,
crushing
the
remains
of
a
sugar
lump
in
his
cup
.
"
Does
she
cause
you
any
trouble
?
"
"
No
,
"
said
Mrs.
153
Grubach
,
"
in
itself
it
's
very
good
to
have
her
there
,
it
makes
another
room
free
for
me
and
I
can
let
my
nephew
,
the
captain
,
occupy
it
.
I
began
to
worry
he
might
be
disturbing
you
when
I
had
to
let
him
live
in
the
living
room
next
to
you
over
the
last
few
days
.
He
's
not
very
considerate
.
"
"
What
an
idea
!
"
said
K.
standing
up
,
"
there
's
no
question
of
that
.
You
seem
to
think
that
because
I
ca
n't
stand
this
to-ing
and
fro-ing
of
Miss
Montag
that
I
'm
over-sensitive
-
and
there
she
goes
back
again
.
"
Mrs.
Grubach
appeared
quite
powerless
.
"
Should
I
tell
her
to
leave
moving
the
rest
of
her
things
over
till
later
,
then
,
Mr.
K.
?
If
that
's
what
you
want
I
'll
do
it
immediately
.
"
"
But
she
has
to
move
in
with
Miss
Bürstner
!
"
said
K.
"
Yes
,
"
said
Mrs.
Grubach
,
without
quite
understanding
what
K.
meant
.
"
So
she
has
to
take
her
things
over
there
.
"
Mrs.
Grubach
just
nodded
.
K.
was
irritated
all
the
more
by
this
dumb
helplessness
which
,
seen
from
the
outside
,
could
have
seemed
like
a
kind
of
defiance
on
her
part
.
He
began
to
walk
up
and
down
the
room
between
the
window
and
the
door
,
thus
depriving
Mrs.
Grubach
of
the
chance
to
leave
,
which
she
otherwise
probably
would
have
done
.

Just
as
K.
once
more
reached
the
door
,
someone
knocked
at
it
.
It
was
the
maid
,
to
say
that
Miss
Montag
would
like
to
have
a
few
words
with
Mr.
K.
,
and
therefore
requested
that
he
come
to
the
dining
room
where
she
was
waiting
for
him
.
K.
heard
the
maid
out
thoughtfully
,
and
then
looked
back
at
the
shocked
Mrs.
Grubach
in
a
way
that
was
almost
contemptuous
.
155
His
look
seemed
to
be
saying
that
K.
had
been
expecting
this
invitation
for
Miss
Montag
for
a
long
time
,
and
that
it
was
confirmation
of
the
suffering
he
had
been
made
to
endure
that
Sunday
morning
from
Mrs.
Grubach
's
tenants
.
He
sent
the
maid
back
with
the
reply
that
he
was
on
his
way
,
then
he
went
to
the
wardrobe
to
change
his
coat
,
and
in
answer
to
Mrs.
Grubach
's
gentle
whining
about
the
nuisance
Miss
Montag
was
causing
merely
asked
her
to
clear
away
the
breakfast
things
.
"
But
you
've
hardly
touched
it
,
"
said
Mrs.
Grubach
.
"
Oh
just
take
it
away
!
"
shouted
K
.
It
seemed
to
him
that
Miss
Montag
was
mixed
up
in
everything
and
made
it
repulsive
to
him
.
156
As
he
went
through
the
hallway
he
looked
at
the
closed
door
of
Miss
Bürstner
's
room
.
But
it
was
n't
there
that
he
was
invited
,
but
the
dining
room
,
to
which
he
yanked
the
door
open
without
knocking
.
157
The
room
was
long
but
narrow
with
one
window
.
There
was
only
enough
space
available
to
put
two
cupboards
at
an
angle
in
the
corner
by
the
door
,
and
the
rest
of
the
room
was
entirely
taken
up
with
the
long
dining
table
which
started
by
the
door
and
reached
all
the
way
to
the
great
window
,
which
was
thus
made
almost
inaccessible
.
The
table
was
already
laid
for
a
large
number
of
people
,
as
on
Sundays
almost
all
the
tenants
ate
their
dinner
here
at
midday
.

158
When
K.
entered
,
Miss
Montag
came
towards
him
from
the
window
along
one
side
of
the
table
.
They
greeted
each
other
in
silence
.
159
Then
Miss
Montag
,
her
head
unusually
erect
as
always
,
said
,
"
I
'm
not
sure
whether
you
know
me
.
"
K.
looked
at
her
with
a
frown
.
"
Of
course
I
do
,
"
he
said
,
"
you
've
been
living
here
with
Mrs.
Grubach
for
quite
some
time
now
.
"
"
But
I
get
the
impression
you
do
n't
pay
much
attention
to
what
's
going
on
in
the
lodging
house
,
"
said
Miss
Montag
.
"
No
,
"
said
K.
"
Would
you
not
like
to
sit
down
?
"
said
Miss
Montag
.
In
silence
,
the
two
of
them
drew
chairs
out
from
the
farthest
end
of
the
table
and
sat
down
facing
each
other
.
But
Miss
Montag
stood
straight
up
again
as
she
had
left
her
handbag
on
the
window
sill
and
went
to
fetch
it
;
she
shuffled
down
the
whole
length
of
the
room
.
When
she
came
back
,
the
handbag
lightly
swinging
,
she
said
,
"
I
'd
like
just
to
have
a
few
words
with
you
on
behalf
of
my
friend
.
She
would
have
come
herself
,
but
she
's
feeling
a
little
unwell
today
.
Perhaps
you
'll
be
kind
enough
to
forgive
her
and
listen
to
me
instead
.
There
's
anyway
nothing
that
she
could
have
said
that
I
wo
n't
.
On
the
contrary
,
in
fact
,
I
think
I
can
say
even
more
than
her
because
I
'm
relatively
impartial
.
Would
you
not
agree
?
"
"
What
is
there
to
say
,
then
?
"
answered
K.
,
who
was
tired
of
Miss
Montag
continuously
watching
his
lips
.
In
that
way
she
took
control
of
what
he
wanted
to
say
before
he
said
it
.
"
Miss
Bürstner
clearly
refuses
to
grant
me
the
personal
meeting
that
I
asked
her
for
.
"
"
That
's
how
it
is
,
"
said
Miss
Montag
,
"
or
rather
,
that
's
not
at
all
how
it
is
,
the
way
you
put
it
is
remarkably
severe
.
Generally
speaking
,
meetings
are
neither
granted
nor
the
opposite
.
160
But
it
can
be
that
meetings
are
considered
unnecessary
,
and
that
's
how
it
is
here
.
Now
,
after
your
comment
,
I
can
speak
openly
.
You
asked
my
friend
,
verbally
or
in
writing
,
for
the
chance
to
speak
with
her
.
Now
my
friend
is
aware
of
your
reasons
for
asking
for
this
meeting
-
or
at
least
I
suppose
she
is
-
and
so
,
for
reasons
I
know
nothing
about
,
she
is
quite
sure
that
it
would
be
of
no
benefit
to
anyone
if
this
meeting
actually
took
place
.
Moreover
,
it
was
only
yesterday
,
and
only
very
briefly
,
that
she
made
it
clear
to
me
that
such
a
meeting
could
be
of
no
benefit
for
yourself
either
,
she
feels
that
it
can
only
have
been
a
matter
of
chance
that
such
an
idea
came
to
you
,
and
that
even
without
any
explanations
from
her
,
you
will
very
soon
come
to
realise
yourself
,
if
you
have
not
done
so
already
,
the
futility
of
your
idea
.
My
answer
to
that
is
that
although
it
may
be
quite
right
,
I
consider
it
advantageous
,
if
the
matter
is
to
be
made
perfectly
clear
,
to
give
you
an
explicit
answer
.
I
offered
my
services
in
taking
on
the
task
,
and
after
some
hesitation
my
friend
conceded
.
I
hope
,
however
,
also
to
have
acted
in
your
interests
,
as
even
the
slightest
uncertainty
in
the
least
significant
of
matters
will
always
remain
a
cause
of
suffering
and
if
,
as
in
this
case
,
it
can
be
removed
without
substantial
effort
,
then
it
is
better
if
that
is
done
without
delay
.
"
"
I
thank
you
,
"
said
K.
as
soon
as
Miss
Montag
had
finished
.
He
stood
slowly
up
,
looked
at
her
,
then
across
the
table
,
then
out
the
window
-
the
house
opposite
stood
there
in
the
sun
-
and
went
to
the
door
.
