You ignore her reply, and ask again:
"How much?" --and she calmly, indifferently, repeats: "NACH BELIEBE." You are getting angry, but you are trying not to show it; you resolve to keep on asking your question till she changes her answer, or at least her annoyingly indifferent manner. Therefore, if your case be like mine, you two fools stand there, and without perceptible emotion of any kind, or any emphasis on any syllable, you look blandly into each other's eyes, and hold the following idiotic conversation: "How much?" "NACH BELIEBE." "How much?" "NACH BELIEBE." "How much?" "NACH BELIEBE." "How much?" |
