Oh
,
what
is
the
matter
?
"
she
cried
anxiously
.
"
I
'm
--
I
'm
forty
today
,
"
sobbed
Janet
.
"
Well
,
you
were
nearly
that
yesterday
and
it
did
n't
hurt
,
"
comforted
Anne
,
trying
not
to
smile

But
--
but
,
"
went
on
Janet
with
a
big
gulp
,
"
John
Douglas
wo
n't
ask
me
to
marry
him
.
"
"
Oh
,
but
he
will
,
"
said
Anne
lamely
.
"
You
must
give
him
time
,
Janet
"
Time
!
"
said
Janet
with
indescribable
scorn
.
"
He
has
had
twenty
years
.
How
much
time
does
he
want
?
"
"
Do
you
mean
that
John
Douglas
has
been
coming
to
see
you
for
twenty
years
?

He
has
.
And
he
has
never
so
much
as
mentioned
marriage
to
me
.
And
I
do
n't
believe
he
ever
will
now
.
I
've
never
said
a
word
to
a
mortal
about
it
,
but
it
seems
to
me
I
've
just
got
to
talk
it
out
with
some
one
at
last
or
go
crazy
.
John
Douglas
begun
to
go
with
me
twenty
years
ago
,
before
mother
died
.
Well
,
he
kept
coming
and
coming
,
and
after
a
spell
I
begun
making
quilts
and
things
;
but
he
never
said
anything
about
getting
married
,
only
just
kept
coming
and
coming
.
There
was
n't
anything
I
could
do
.
Mother
died
when
we
'd
been
going
together
for
eight
years
.
I
thought
he
maybe
would
speak
out
then
,
seeing
as
I
was
left
alone
in
the
world
.
He
was
real
kind
and
feeling
,
and
did
everything
he
could
for
me
,
but
he
never
said
marry
.
And
that
's
the
way
it
has
been
going
on
ever
since
.
People
blame
ME
for
it
.
They
say
I
wo
n't
marry
him
because
his
mother
is
so
sickly
and
I
do
n't
want
the
bother
of
waiting
on
her
.
Why
,
I
'd
LOVE
to
wait
on
John
's
mother
!
But
I
let
them
think
so
.
I
'd
rather
they
'd
blame
me
than
pity
me
!
It
's
so
dreadful
humiliating
that
John
wo
n't
ask
me
.
And
WHY
wo
n't
he
?
Seems
to
me
if
I
only
knew
his
reason
I
would
n't
mind
it
so
much
.
"
"
Perhaps
his
mother
does
n't
want
him
to
marry
anybody
,
"
suggested
Anne
.
