“I was lying asleep, after a little poetising.”
“Now, now, no story-telling, Sensei. You must have seen the show just now?”
“Yes, I took the liberty to see just a little bit of it.”
“Ho, ho, ho. Not just a little bit of it, but you should have seen a good deal of it.”
“To tell the truth, I saw a good deal of it.”
“There you are! Just come out of there, Sensei. Come out of the quince, Sensei.”
I meekly obeyed the order.
“Have you got anything more to do in the quince bed?”
“No, nothing more. I was thinking of going home.”
“Well, then, we will go home together, Sensei.”
