Why did you want to go—then?
Rebecca.
I did not want to go; I wanted to stay here, where I was. But I told her that it would be best for us all—that I should go away in time. I gave her to understand that if I stayed here any longer, I could not—I could not tell—what might happen.
Rosmer.
Then this is what you said and did!
Rebecca.
Yes, Rosmer.
Rosmer.
This is what you call “going to work.”
Rebecca.
