:22:00
Ours, of course.
:22:03
Before she left our old home,
she detached him from the chair...
:22:07
and put him in her purse.
:22:10
When she changed a mark for me recently...
:22:12
l saw it.
:22:15
And...
:22:21
she admitted it with embarrassment.
:22:40
She told me...
:22:42
that her sense of
being a stranger had gone...
:22:45
and that she was very glad.
:22:48

:22:51

:23:05

:23:15
and it rather surprised me.

:23:24
There's something behind it...
:23:27
which she wanted to allude to.
:23:31
You think so?
:23:33
Yes, Briest.
:23:35
You think butter wouldn't melt in her mouth.
:23:39
But you're wrong.
:23:43
She likes to drift with the current...
:23:47
and if the current is good, so is she.
:23:52
Fighting and resistance
are not her strong points.
