Vasil. Wait! She is coming! [Exit Adrian, street door, as Sophie and Vera enter left. Sophie has on hat and ulster]
Vera. You kissed me this morning, and you were a princess.
Soph. And I will kiss you again, dear Vera. You will be ready in the morning for the visit you have promised me?
Vera. O, yes!
[They cross toward Vasil]
Vera. I shall love you always for saving my Vasil. It would have killed him. Adrian has guarded him always. [Lifting Vasil's hand] See——
Vasil. [Offended, drawing away his hand] I am not a child, Vera.
Vera. [Hurt] O, Vasil!
Vasil. [Embracing her] There! The princess will think we are two babies.
