Gee
,
but
this
society
business
here
is
getting
to
be
the
dizzy
thing
,
honey
.
I
never
saw
such
a
town
as
this
.
Once
you
go
with
these
people
one
place
to
do
one
thing
,
they
always
have
something
else
they
want
you
to
do
.
They
're
on
the
go
all
the
time
.
When
I
went
there
Friday
(
he
was
referring
to
his
lie
about
having
gone
to
the
Griffiths
'
)
,
I
thought
that
would
be
the
last
until
after
the
holidays
,
but
yesterday
,
and
just
when
I
was
planning
to
go
somewhere
else
,
I
got
a
note
saying
they
expected
me
to
come
there
again
to-day
for
dinner
sure
.
"
"
And
to-day
when
I
thought
the
dinner
would
begin
at
two
,
"
he
continued
to
explain
,
"
and
end
in
time
for
me
to
be
around
here
by
eight
like
I
said
,
it
did
n't
start
until
three
and
only
broke
up
a
few
minutes
ago
.
Is
n't
that
the
limit
?
And
I
just
could
n't
get
away
for
the
last
four
hours
.
How
've
you
been
,
honey
?
Did
you
have
a
good
time
?
I
hope
so
.
Did
they
like
the
present
I
gave
you
?
"
He
rattled
off
these
questions
,
to
which
she
made
brief
and
decidedly
terse
replies
,
all
the
time
looking
at
him
as
much
as
to
say
,
"
Oh
,
Clyde
,
how
can
you
treat
me
like
this
?
"
But
Clyde
was
so
much
interested
in
his
own
alibi
,
and
how
to
convince
Roberta
of
the
truth
of
it
,
that
neither
before
nor
after
slipping
off
his
coat
,
muffler
and
gloves
and
smoothing
back
his
hair
,
did
he
look
at
her
directly
,
or
even
tenderly
,
or
indeed
do
anything
to
demonstrate
to
her
that
he
was
truly
delighted
to
see
her
again
.
On
the
contrary
,
he
was
so
fidgety
and
in
part
flustered
that
despite
his
past
professions
and
actions
she
could
feel
that
apart
from
being
moderately
glad
to
see
her
again
he
was
more
concerned
about
himself
and
his
own
partially
explained
defection
than
he
was
about
her
.
And
although
after
a
few
moments
he
took
her
in
his
arms
and
pressed
his
lips
to
hers
,
still
,
as
on
Saturday
,
she
could
feel
that
he
was
only
partially
united
to
her
in
spirit
.
Other
things
--
the
affairs
that
had
kept
him
from
her
on
Friday
and
to-night
--
were
disturbing
his
thoughts
and
hers
.
She
looked
at
him
,
not
exactly
believing
and
yet
not
entirely
wishing
to
disbelieve
him
.
He
might
have
been
at
the
Griffiths
'
,
as
he
said
,
and
they
might
have
detained
him
.
And
yet
he
might
not
have
,
either
.
For
she
could
not
help
recalling
that
on
the
previous
Saturday
he
had
said
he
had
been
there
Friday
and
the
paper
on
the
other
hand
had
stated
that
he
was
in
Gloversville
.
But
if
she
questioned
him
in
regard
to
these
things
now
,
would
he
not
get
angry
and
lie
to
her
still
more
?
For
after
all
she
could
not
help
thinking
that
apart
from
his
love
for
her
she
had
no
real
claim
on
him
.
But
she
could
not
possibly
imagine
that
he
could
change
so
quickly
.
"
So
that
was
why
you
did
n't
come
to-night
,
was
it
?
"
she
asked
,
with
more
spirit
and
irritation
than
she
had
ever
used
with
him
before
.
"
I
thought
you
told
me
sure
you
would
n't
let
anything
interfere
,
"
she
went
on
,
a
little
heavily
.
"
Well
,
so
I
did
,
"
he
admitted
.
"
And
I
would
n't
have
either
,
except
for
the
letter
I
got
.
You
know
I
would
n't
let
any
one
but
my
uncle
interfere
,
but
I
could
n't
turn
them
down
when
they
asked
me
to
come
there
on
Christmas
Day
.
It
's
too
important
.
It
would
n't
look
right
,
would
it
,
especially
when
you
were
n't
going
to
be
here
in
the
afternoon
?
"
The
manner
and
tone
in
which
he
said
this
conveyed
to
Roberta
more
clearly
than
anything
that
he
had
ever
said
before
how
significant
he
considered
this
connection
with
his
relatives
to
be
and
how
unimportant
anything
she
might
value
in
regard
to
this
relationship
was
to
him
.
It
came
to
her
now
that
in
spite
of
all
his
enthusiasm
and
demonstrativeness
in
the
first
stages
of
this
affair
,
possibly
she
was
much
more
trivial
in
his
estimation
than
she
had
seemed
to
herself
.
