Munch writes in his diary:
:48:11
"They were lying beside each other.
:48:14
"They didn't talk much.
:48:17
"'Poor you', she said
:48:19
"and stroked his wet hair
slowly...
:48:23
"slowly..."
:48:26
"She lay there with her head back
and her beautiful throat exposed.
:48:29
"I kissed it and wanted
to carry her to the bed.
:48:34
"But the touch of her soft limbs
:48:37
"took all strength from my arms."
:48:43
"She lay down on him.
:48:45
"The moment again when everything
ceased to exist.
:48:50
"Again and again."
:48:55
And that married woman...
You shouldn't show yourself with her.
:49:03
Have you got something else
besides your work to think of?
:49:08
I feel much calmer.
I sleep at night too.
:49:15
That's fine.
:49:35
Munch writes in his diaries
of making appointments to meet
:49:39
Mrs. Heiberg on the Karl Johan,
:49:42
only to have her pass him by with
her husband or a friend on her arm.
:49:47
Exactly who began to break
the appointments first is not known,
:49:52
but Munch writes of retaliating
:49:54
by ignoring Mrs. Heiberg
when they next meet.
:49:57
I waited for half an hour
on the Karl Johan.
