"Did you care for him very much, Kitty?"
"I don't know. Yes. No, I don't know. It wasn't the same thing."
"Never mind. It's very good of you to tell me."
"I didn't mean to."
"What made you tell me?"
"Seeing the children. I thought I could go on deceiving you; but when I saw them I knew I couldn't."
"I see." His voice softened. "You told me because of them. I'm glad you told me." He paused on that.
"Well," he said, "we must make the best of it."
"No. Not now."
