"Did it occur to you that I cared about you, for the first time?"

"I—I—suspicioned it a little."

"Then you deliberately ignored it because you did not want my love?"

"I—I—didn't mean to ignore it."

"But you did."

"I wasn't sure; you never spoke of it, never said you cared. After that first night I thought I must have been mistaken."

"But you were glad to be mistaken?"

"No. I was sorry," she said, softly.

"What?" sharply.

"I wanted your love, Jarvis."
