A
dreadful
annoyance
.
Met
Mr.
Franching
,
who
lives
at
Peckham
,
and
who
is
a
great
swell
in
his
way
.
I
ventured
to
ask
him
to
come
home
to
meat-tea
,
and
take
pot-luck
.
I
did
not
think
he
would
accept
such
a
humble
invitation
;
but
he
did
,
saying
,
in
a
most
friendly
way
,
he
would
rather
"
peck
"
with
us
than
by
himself
.
I
said
:
"
We
had
better
get
into
this
blue
'
bus
.
"
He
replied
:
"
No
blue-bussing
for
me
.
I
have
had
enough
of
the
blues
lately
.
I
lost
a
cool
'
thou
'
over
the
Copper
Scare
.
Step
in
here
.
"
132
We
drove
up
home
in
style
,
in
a
hansom-cab
,
and
I
knocked
three
times
at
the
front
door
without
getting
an
answer
.
I
saw
Carrie
,
through
the
panels
of
ground-glass
(
with
stars
)
,
rushing
upstairs
.
I
told
Mr.
Franching
to
wait
at
the
door
while
I
went
round
to
the
side
.
There
I
saw
the
grocer
's
boy
actually
picking
off
the
paint
on
the
door
,
which
had
formed
into
blisters
.
No
time
to
reprove
him
;
so
went
round
and
effected
an
entrance
through
the
kitchen
window
.
I
let
in
Mr.
Franching
,
and
showed
him
into
the
drawing-room
.
I
went
upstairs
to
Carrie
,
who
was
changing
her
dress
,
and
told
her
I
had
persuaded
Mr.
Franching
to
come
home
.
She
replied
:
"
How
can
you
do
such
a
thing
?
You
know
it
's
Sarah
's
holiday
,
and
there
's
not
a
thing
in
the
house
,
the
cold
mutton
having
turned
with
the
hot
weather
.

Eventually
Carrie
,
like
a
good
creature
as
she
is
,
slipped
down
,
washed
up
the
teacups
,
and
laid
the
cloth
,
and
I
gave
Franching
our
views
of
Japan
to
look
at
while
I
ran
round
to
the
butcher
's
to
get
three
chops
.

--
The
miserable
cold
weather
is
either
upsetting
me
or
Carrie
,
or
both
.
We
seem
to
break
out
into
an
argument
about
absolutely
nothing
,
and
this
unpleasant
state
of
things
usually
occurs
at
meal-times
.
136
This
morning
,
for
some
unaccountable
reason
,
we
were
talking
about
balloons
,
and
we
were
as
merry
as
possible
;
but
the
conversation
drifted
into
family
matters
,
during
which
Carrie
,
without
the
slightest
reason
,
referred
in
the
most
uncomplimentary
manner
to
my
poor
father
's
pecuniary
trouble
.
I
retorted
by
saying
that
"
Pa
,
at
all
events
,
was
a
gentleman
,
"
whereupon
Carrie
burst
out
crying
.
I
positively
could
not
eat
any
breakfast
.
137
At
the
office
I
was
sent
for
by
Mr.
Perkupp
,
who
said
he
was
very
sorry
,
but
I
should
have
to
take
my
annual
holidays
from
next
Saturday
.
Franching
called
at
office
and
asked
me
to
dine
at
his
club
,
"
The
Constitutional
.
"
Fearing
disagreeables
at
home
after
the
"
tiff
"
this
morning
,
I
sent
a
telegram
to
Carrie
,
telling
her
I
was
going
out
to
dine
and
she
was
not
to
sit
up
.
Bought
a
little
silver
bangle
for
Carrie
.

--
Carrie
was
very
pleased
with
the
bangle
,
which
I
left
with
an
affectionate
note
on
her
dressing-table
last
night
before
going
to
bed
.
I
told
Carrie
we
should
have
to
start
for
our
holiday
next
Saturday
.
139
She
replied
quite
happily
that
she
did
not
mind
,
except
that
the
weather
was
so
bad
,
and
she
feared
that
Miss
Jibbons
would
not
be
able
to
get
her
a
seaside
dress
in
time
.
I
told
Carrie
that
I
thought
the
drab
one
with
pink
bows
looked
quite
good
enough
;
and
Carrie
said
she
should
not
think
of
wearing
it
.
I
was
about
to
discuss
the
matter
,
when
,
remembering
the
argument
yesterday
,
resolved
to
hold
my
tongue
.
140
I
said
to
Carrie
:
"
I
do
n't
think
we
can
do
better
than
'
Good
old
Broadstairs
.
"'
Carrie
not
only
,
to
my
astonishment
,
raised
an
objection
to
Broadstairs
,
for
the
first
time
;
but
begged
me
not
to
use
the
expression
,
"
Good
old
,
"
but
to
leave
it
to
Mr.
Stillbrook
and
other
gentlemen
of
his
type
.
Hearing
my
'
bus
pass
the
window
,
I
was
obliged
to
rush
out
of
the
house
without
kissing
Carrie
as
usual
;
and
I
shouted
to
her
:
"
I
leave
it
to
you
to
decide
.
"
On
returning
in
the
evening
,
Carrie
said
she
thought
as
the
time
was
so
short
she
had
decided
on
Broadstairs
,
and
had
written
to
Mrs.
Beck
,
Harbour
View
Terrace
,
for
apartments
.
