At
this
point
Matilda
noticed
that
Miss
Honey
s
face
had
gone
all
tight
and
peculiar
-
looking
.
Her
whole
body
had
become
rigid
.
Her
shoulders
were
hunched
up
high
and
her
lips
were
pressed
together
tight
and
she
sat
there
gripping
her
mug
of
tea
in
both
hands
and
staring
down
into
it
as
though
searching
for
a
way
to
answer
these
not
-
quite
-
so
-
innocent
questions
.
There
followed
a
rather
long
and
embarrassing
silence
.
In
the
space
of
thirty
seconds
the
atmosphere
in
the
tiny
room
had
changed
completely
and
now
it
was
vibrating
with
awkwardness
and
secrets
.
Matilda
said
,
"
I
am
very
sorry
I
asked
you
those
questions
,
Miss
Honey
.
It
is
not
any
of
my
business
.
"
At
this
,
Miss
Honey
seemed
to
rouse
herself
.
She
gave
a
shake
of
her
shoulders
and
then
very
carefully
she
placed
her
mug
on
the
tray
.

"
Why
shouldn
t
you
ask
?
"
she
said
.
"
You
were
bound
to
ask
in
the
end
.
You
are
much
too
bright
not
to
have
wondered
.
Perhaps
I
even
wanted
you
to
ask
.
Maybe
that
is
why
I
invited
you
here
after
all
.
As
a
matter
of
fact
you
are
the
first
visitor
to
come
to
the
cottage
since
I
moved
in
two
years
ago
.
"
Matilda
said
nothing
.
She
could
feel
the
tension
growing
and
growing
in
the
room
.
"
You
are
so
much
wiser
than
your
years
,
my
dear
,
"
Miss
Honey
went
on
,
"
that
it
quite
staggers
me
.
Although
you
look
like
a
child
,
you
are
not
really
a
child
at
all
because
your
mind
and
your
powers
of
reasoning
seem
to
be
fully
grown
-
up
.
So
I
suppose
we
might
call
you
a
grown
-
up
child
,
if
you
see
what
I
mean
.
"
Matilda
still
did
not
say
anything
.
She
was
waiting
for
what
was
coming
next
.

"
Up
to
now
"
,
Miss
Honey
went
on
,
"
I
have
found
it
impossible
to
talk
to
anyone
about
my
problems
.
I
couldn
t
face
the
embarrassment
,
and
anyway
I
lack
the
courage
.
Any
courage
I
had
was
knocked
out
of
me
when
I
was
young
.
But
now
,
all
of
a
sudden
I
have
a
sort
of
desperate
wish
to
tell
everything
to
somebody
.
I
know
you
are
only
a
tiny
little
girl
,
but
there
is
some
kind
of
magic
in
you
somewhere
.
I
ve
seen
it
with
my
own
eyes
.
"
Matilda
became
very
alert
.
The
voice
she
was
hearing
was
surely
crying
out
for
help
.
It
must
be
.
It
had
to
be
.
