I am not disturbed.

Sachel.

I say you are. You are red in the face—I know it. Why were you up?

Rosa.

I was not up.

Sachel.

I heard you! I heard you, and you cannot deceive me. Did I not lie awake until Rafael came home? It struck twelve as he went to his room. It was not five minutes later when I hear steps along the hall—yes, I can hear steps, though the shoes be off! I heard steps, and then your door opened. Why do you stop? I heard your door open; what does it mean?

Rosa.

Do you mean that—that some one came—some one opened my door?

Sachel.
