Such
a
thin
strange
quavering
noise
,
and
such
a
tense
awkward
atmosphere
had
built
up
;
I
mean
it
was
the
music
on
top
of
everything
else
.
Piers
started
to
smirk
and
Antoinette
had
a
fit
of
—
she
can
’
t
giggle
,
she
’
s
too
slinky
,
her
equivalent
—
and
I
smiled
.
I
admit
it
.
Piers
cleaned
out
his
ear
with
his
little
finger
and
then
leant
on
his
elbow
with
his
forehead
on
outstretched
fingers
—
and
shook
his
head
every
time
the
instrument
(
I
didn
’
t
know
what
it
was
then
)
vibrated
.
Antoinette
half
-
choked
.
It
was
awful
.
I
knew
he
would
hear
.
He
did
.
He
saw
Piers
cleaning
his
ears
again
.
And
Piers
saw
himself
being
seen
and
put
on
a
clever
sort
of
don
’
t
-
mind
-
us
smile
.
G
.
P
.
jumped
up
and
turned
off
the
player
.
He
said
,
you
don
’
t
like
it
?
Piers
said
,
have
I
got
to
like
it
?

I
said
,
Piers
,
that
wasn
’
t
funny
.
Piers
said
,
I
wasn
’
t
making
a
noise
,
was
I
?
Have
we
got
to
like
it
?
G
.
P
.
said
,
get
out
.
Antoinette
said
,
I
’
m
afraid
I
always
think
of
Beecham
.
You
know
.
Two
skeletons
copulating
on
a
tin
roof
?

G

P
.
said
(
frightening
,
his
face
,
he
can
look
devilish
)
,
first
,
I
’
m
delighted
that
you
should
admire
Beecham
.
A
pompous
little
duckarsed
bandmaster
who
stood
against
everything
creative
in
the
art
of
his
time
.
Second
,
if
you
can
’
t
tell
that
from
a
harpsichord
,
Christ
help
you
.
Third
(
to
Piers
)
I
think
you
’
re
the
smuggest
young
layabout
I
’
ve
met
for
years
and
you
(
me
)
—
are
these
your
friends
?
I
stood
there
,
I
couldn
’
t
say
anything
,
he
made
me
furious
,
they
made
me
furious
and
anyhow
I
was
ten
times
more
em
-
barrassed
than
furious
.
Piers
shrugged
,
Antoinette
looked
bewildered
,
but
vaguely
amused
,
the
bitch
,
and
I
was
red
.
It
makes
me
red
again
to
think
of
it
(
and
of
what
happened
later
—
how
could
he
?
)
.
