BELINDA. Just say it--to see if you've got it right.
TREMAYNE. Mariton. BELINDA (shaking her head). Oh no, that's quite wrong. Try it again (With a rustic accent.) Mariton. TREMAYNE. Mariton. BELINDA. Yes, that's much better. ... (As if it were he who had interrupted.) Well, do go on. TREMAYNE. I'm afraid it isn't much of an apology really. I saw what looked like a private road, but what I rather hoped wasn't, and-- well, I thought I'd risk it. I do hope you'll forgive me. BELINDA. Oh, but I love people seeing my garden. Are you staying in Mariton? TREMAYNE. I think so. Oh yes, decidedly. BELINDA. Well, perhaps the next time the road won't feel so private. TREMAYNE. How charming of you! (He feels he must know.) Are you Mrs. Tremayne by any chance? BELINDA. Yes. TREMAYNE (nodding to himself). Yes. |
