This
was
the
dull
season
with
the
department
stores
,
but
she
was
listened
to
with
more
consideration
than
was
usually
accorded
to
young
women
applicants
,
owing
to
her
neat
and
attractive
appearance
.
She
was
asked
the
same
old
questions
with
which
she
was
already
familiar
.
“
What
can
you
do
?
Have
you
ever
worked
in
a
retail
store
before
?
Are
you
experienced
?
”
At
The
Fair
,
See
and
Company
’
s
,
and
all
the
great
stores
it
was
much
the
same
.
It
was
the
dull
season
,
she
might
come
in
a
little
later
,
possibly
they
would
like
to
have
her
.
When
she
arrived
at
the
house
at
the
end
of
the
day
,
weary
and
disheartened
,
she
discovered
that
Drouet
had
been
there
.
His
umbrella
and
light
overcoat
were
gone
.
She
thought
she
missed
other
things
,
but
could
not
be
sure
.
Everything
had
not
been
taken
.
So
his
going
was
crystallising
into
staying
.
What
was
she
to
do
now
?
Evidently
she
would
be
facing
the
world
in
the
same
old
way
within
a
day
or
two
.
Her
clothes
would
get
poor
.
She
put
her
two
hands
together
in
her
customary
expressive
way
and
pressed
her
fingers
.
Large
tears
gathered
in
her
eyes
and
broke
hot
across
her
cheeks
.
She
was
alone
,
very
much
alone
.
Drouet
really
had
called
,
but
it
was
with
a
very
different
mind
from
that
which
Carrie
had
imagined
.
He
expected
to
find
her
,
to
justify
his
return
by
claiming
that
he
came
to
get
the
remaining
portion
of
his
wardrobe
,
and
before
he
got
away
again
to
patch
up
a
peace
.
Accordingly
,
when
he
arrived
,
he
was
disappointed
to
find
Carrie
out
.
He
trifled
about
,
hoping
that
she
was
somewhere
in
the
neighbourhood
and
would
soon
return
.
He
constantly
listened
,
expecting
to
hear
her
foot
on
the
stair
.
When
he
did
so
,
it
was
his
intention
to
make
believe
that
he
had
just
come
in
and
was
disturbed
at
being
caught
.
Then
he
would
explain
his
need
of
his
clothes
and
find
out
how
things
stood
.
Wait
as
he
did
,
however
,
Carrie
did
not
come
.
From
pottering
around
among
the
drawers
,
in
momentary
expectation
of
her
arrival
he
changed
to
looking
out
of
the
window
,
and
from
that
to
resting
himself
in
the
rocking
-
chair
.
Still
no
Carrie
.
He
began
to
grow
restless
and
lit
a
cigar
.
After
that
he
walked
the
floor
.
Then
he
looked
out
of
the
window
and
saw
clouds
gathering
.
He
remembered
an
appointment
at
three
.
He
began
to
think
that
it
would
be
useless
to
wait
,
and
got
hold
of
his
umbrella
and
light
coat
,
intending
to
take
these
things
,
any
way
.
It
would
scare
her
,
he
hoped
.
To
-
morrow
he
would
come
back
for
the
others
.
He
would
find
out
how
things
stood
.
