Meanwhile we still walked up and down the room. A lamp burned before the ikon. Of late Natasha had become more and more devout, and did not like one to speak of it to her. “Is tomorrow a holiday?” I asked. “Your lamp is lighted.” “No, it’s not a holiday . . . but, Vanya, sit down. You must be tired. Will you have tea? I suppose you’ve not had it yet?” “Let’s sit down, Natasha. I’ve had tea already.” “Where have you come from?” “From them.” That’s how we always referred to her old home. “From them? How did you get time? Did you go of your own accord? Or did they ask you with her, he would sanction everything at oncehe answered.?” She besieged me with questions. Her face grew still paler with emotion. I told her in detail of my meeting with her father, my conversation with her mother, and t. I told her in detail, describing every shade of feeling. I never concealed anything from her, She listened eagerly, catching every word I uttered, the tears glittered in her eyes. The scene with the locket affected her deeply. “Stay, stay, Vanya,” she said, often interrupting my story. “Tell me more exactly everything, everything as exactly as possible; you don’t tell me exactly enough . . . . ..” I repeated it again and again, replying every moment to her continual questions about the details. “And you really think he was coming to see me?” “I don’t know, Natasha, and in fact I can’t make up my mind; that he grieves for you and loves you is clear; but that he was coming to you is . . . is . . .” “And he kissed the locket?” she interrupted. “What did he say when he kissed it?” “It was incoherent. Nothing but exclamations; he called you by the tenderest names; he called for you.” “Called for me?” “Yes.” She wept quietly. “Poor things!” she said. “And if he knows everything,” she added after a brief silence, “it’s no wonder.. He hears a great deal about Alyosha’s father, too.” “Natasha,” I said timidly, “let us go to them.” “When?” she asked, turning pale and almost getting up from her chair. She thought I was urging her to go at once. |
