Up
in
his
room
he
saw
his
reflection
in
the
familiar
mirror
--
he
went
closer
and
examined
his
own
face
with
anxiety
,
comparing
it
after
a
moment
with
a
photograph
of
himself
in
uniform
taken
just
before
the
war
.
182
"
Good
Lord
!
"
he
said
aloud
.
The
process
was
continuing
.
There
was
no
doubt
of
it
--
he
looked
now
like
a
man
of
thirty
.
Instead
of
being
delighted
,
he
was
uneasy
--
he
was
growing
younger
.
He
had
hitherto
hoped
that
once
he
reached
a
bodily
age
equivalent
to
his
age
in
years
,
the
grotesque
phenomenon
which
had
marked
his
birth
would
cease
to
function
.
He
shuddered
.
His
destiny
seemed
to
him
awful
,
incredible
.
183
When
he
came
downstairs
Hildegarde
was
waiting
for
him
.
She
appeared
annoyed
,
and
he
wondered
if
she
had
at
last
discovered
that
there
was
something
amiss
.
It
was
with
an
effort
to
relieve
the
tension
between
them
that
he
broached
the
matter
at
dinner
in
what
he
considered
a
delicate
way
.

"
Well
,
"
he
remarked
lightly
,
"
everybody
says
I
look
younger
than
ever
.
"
185
Hildegarde
regarded
him
with
scorn
.
She
sniffed
.
"
Do
you
think
it
's
anything
to
boast
about
?
"
186
"
I
'm
not
boasting
,
"
he
asserted
uncomfortably
.
She
sniffed
again
.
"
The
idea
,
"
she
said
,
and
after
a
moment
:
"
I
should
think
you
'd
have
enough
pride
to
stop
it
.
"
187
"
How
can
I
?
"
he
demanded
.

"
I
'm
not
going
to
argue
with
you
,
"
she
retorted
.
"
But
there
's
a
right
way
of
doing
things
and
a
wrong
way
.
If
you
've
made
up
your
mind
to
be
different
from
everybody
else
,
I
do
n't
suppose
I
can
stop
you
,
but
I
really
do
n't
think
it
's
very
considerate
.
"
189
"
But
,
Hildegarde
,
I
ca
n't
help
it
.
"
190
"
You
can
too
.
You
're
simply
stubborn
.
You
think
you
do
n't
want
to
be
like
any
one
else
.
You
always
have
been
that
way
,
and
you
always
will
be
.
But
just
think
how
it
would
be
if
every
one
else
looked
at
things
as
you
do
--
what
would
the
world
be
like
?
