Despicable!
SOPHY. Despicable, is it! I don't care! My goodness, I'd do the shabbiest thing a woman could do to save you from him! MURIEL. [_Peering among the trees._] Hush, hush, hush! SOPHY. [_On the verge of tears._] Perhaps you fancy I'm mean from choice? Perhaps you imagine--? MURIEL. Be quiet, Sophy! SOPHY. [_Giving a sniff and lowering her voice._] Well, here they were, standing exactly where you are, close to each other. [MURIEL _changes her position._] I saw her touch his arm. Oh, I'm positive there's something between those two! "You will?" I heard her say. And then he made a remark about Friday--Friday-- MURIEL. |
