CH19P:17:Promise to visit Miss Barry.

I dont think it is any excuse for you that you were only in fun. Little girls never indulged in that kind of fun when I was young. You dont know what it is to be awakened out of a sound sleep, after a long and arduous journey, by two great girls coming bounce down on you. I dont know, but I can imagine, said Anne eagerly. Im sure it must have been very disturbing. But then, there is our side of it too. Have you any imagination, Miss Barry? If you have, just put yourself in our place. We didnt know there was anybody in that bed and you nearly scared us to death. It was simply awful the way we felt. And then we couldnt sleep in the spare room after being promised. I suppose you are used to sleeping in spare rooms. But just imagine what you would feel like if you were a little orphan girl who had never had such an honor. All the snap had gone by this time. Miss Barry actually laugheda sound which caused Diana, waiting in speechless anxiety in the kitchen outside, to give a great gasp of relief. Im afraid my imagination is a little rustyits so long since I used it, she said. I dare say your claim to sympathy is just as strong as mine. It all depends on the way we look at it. Sit down here and tell me about yourself.
