“Not at all,” said Carrie.

“I have a room-mate,” she added, “who will have to go wherever I do. I forgot about that.”
“Oh, very well,” said Mr. Withers, blandly. “It is for you to say whom you want with you. As I say, all that can be arranged to suit yourself.”
He bowed and backed toward the door.

“Yes,” said Carrie.
“I will be there to show you,” and so Mr. Withers withdrew.
After rehearsal Carrie informed Lola.
